Think about album cycles and whatnot, for a lot of the larger bands who operate a little bit slower, it will be a lot of bands who released stuff 09/10 who will be due again in 2013.

Given that, Arcade Fire would be due. They'll wrap up everything 'Suburbs' over the next few months then take their 12 months or so to get something new together, few more months to release it, kick a tour off, and voila, it's spring/summer 2013.

Pop acts work quickly. We've kind of reverted to an age gone by where pop acts always have something in the charts. There's no time off, and they're less on album cycles and more on continual-singles-presence plans. GaGa, Beyonce, Rihanna, Katy Perry - it's been a continual cycle for years now, they don't 'go away'. Given that, I reckon we'll get a new GaGa album in 2013, even though that's a relatively quick turnaround by others standards. Also, Beyonce was a monster, if there were any doubts about such a 'pop' headliner, they're gone now.

So, my bets are Arcade Fire, Lady GaGa, and someone in that never before/legend/one off spot. That could be anyone and isn't necessarily determined by album or tour cycles.

Bloc Party would be great if the other two acts were friggin' huge. Hopefully they would snub R+L's money for a Glasto appearance & album sales.

With another album out I would hope Friendly Fires, The Wombats & Two Door Cinema Club shoot up near the top 3/4 of the Pyramid.
