Well this will be our first time, we've been wanting to do it for a very long time. Did a couple of other festivals over the years, Leeds and V a few years ago but always wanted to do the biggy. Now our boys are a bit older we plan on taking them, not sure how that's going to go but I'm sure we will have fun finding out.

Out of all the acts mentioned here recently I would love any of the following, I'm not greedy!

Led Zepplin(I wish) Stones, Roses, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Prince, Tinie Tempah, Killers, Neil Young, Daft Punk, The Smiths reformed? (I think I would die and go to heaven)

Stones, Roses, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Prince, Tinie Tempah, Killers, Daft Punk.

What do you think about chances of Lady Gaga to close the Pyramid?

she's one of around 20 or so acts that it's likely to be. There's really not that many options for a headliner when it comes down to it.

As things stand she doesn't seem any more or less likely than most of the possibilities in that list, because there's nothing to particularly make one more likely than the other for many of them from what anyone seems to know.

So there's a chance of Daft Punk then? SOLD!

I reckon Roses and Stones are very probable. The third I'm not sure about, I could imagine it being Gaga but not so sure, I think it would seem very similar to 2011. So for third I'm going to say Pearl Jam, which I guess is quite an outsider.

Pearl Jam would be amazing! Highly doubt it but as they would be classed as one of the heavier headliners that Eavis is not fond of but seemed to change his mind more recently about. I'm sure he said a few months back that it could be likely that not next year but the year after could have a heavier headliner.

Don't get excited by the facebook led zeppelin countdown. Most rumours flying around seem to be that its a DVD release of their o2 performance

Anyone thinking that on Thursday it pops up and says ... "Is headlining Glastonbury" or even "is touring in 2013" is living in cloud cuckoo land

Over on the Backstreets forum there are a couple of people who are fairly certain that Bruce Springsteen is going to return in 2013.

Of course, I was fairly certain I was going to win the lottery last week and didn't.

Kev

if he is, I guess that's for the people who somehow missed how bland and boring he was last time. :P

    • Judging by last night at Wembley, Luke Combs should be in the conversation of headliner. The UK is having a moment with country music so I don't think it would be particularly left field either.

    • It feels really busy this year, loads of big groups of youngsters too. Slightly different vibe to previous years I've been. As with Tramlines, they're very chatty during sets and there's a constant stream of them in and out of the crowd... definitely feeling my age 😂   The Quarry stage I think is a lot smaller than previous years - seems similar size to Squid/Leadmill. Some sets have been difficult to get in.   I think I've reached my limit with mid-tier indie guitar bands. There's been quite a few this weekend where I've gone over to see them then walked away after 20 mins. Surprisingly, enjoyed the Fratellis set the most in this genre. Probably getting on for 20 years since I last saw them. Wasn't expecting them to do Yes Sir, I Can Boogie, which was fab!   Hugely enjoyed the Happy Mondays yesterday, and same but different with Radio Free Alice who I saw again on Friday, following Tramlines last weekend. A big run of pop acts today - Scissor Sisters will be fantastic!
