Lineup 2015

Nothing but a hunch

I know its the sun

Son do you know what a hunch is

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Two of Glasto's headliners from 2014 headlining Reading and Leeds in 2015? Unlikely

why?

edited my original post to make a point about kasabian being big ticket-sellers

[the wonderwhy]

No chance, they'll get offered much more to headline Reading than to sub at Glastonbury

Happened before hasn't it? Or was that IOW?

Either way I reckon I reckon Kasabian are destined for the Isle

What if... hear me out.... they're not doing it for the money

dun dun dun

because it'd make Reading/Leeds look incredibly second fiddle to Glastonbury

[lightning1000]

For some weird reason I think the libertines may have chosen a lower slot at glastonbury over reading...

Nothing but a hunch, maybe they weren't even asked for reading. I know its the sun but they do have a track record of sometimes knowing and publishing things pretty early.

That's it. You've officially become gazza, I don't know how you've managed it, but that post is fucking eerily reminiscent of the shit he used to post all the time

If linkin park are headlining lets get blur as the final headliner

that's never been done before

System are touring too, lets get them on the bill. Jack White can sub blur and placebo can also play!

Get Primal Scream in too, it's been a while since they played.

which it is

if they really cared about that they wouldn't book *any* headliners from the previous year's Glasto

Then I'll eat Pete's hat

Yeah he does, its when you read something and try pass it off as your own, but then incriminate yourself at the same time right?

They can get away with one, but two's a bit much

As in, the efests community get Blur on board?

well the headliner pool is pretty thin as it is so i guess every once in a while they have to, but to book TWO of Glastonbury's headliners would basically be saying 'Glastonbury is better so we're just gonna copy them'. be very surprised if it happens

[Rose-Colored Boy]

meh, surely it depends on who the bands in question are. would they have cancelled AM's spot in 2014 if the Stones had for some reason turned to Melvin and said they wanted to play after the success of their Glasto slot?

kasabian are such a stronger booking than The Vaccines that for example i just think that if it came down to a choice between those two they'd go for Kasabian all day long.

[justanothername]

I forgot about the Top 10 album thing! Really not sure who the other two headliners are, I was sure it was going to be The Libertines and Mumford

Well, no. But Kasabian aren't the Rolling Stones

[FloorFiller]

Well, no. But Kasabian aren't the Rolling Stones

48.13 is the Exile On Main St. of our generation

[Lumz]

I'm going for Linkin Park as the top 10 headliner, as I don't think they're similar enough to Metallica to rule them out on that basis.

To even it out though I think if you chuck in Libertines as a "lighter" band, could be our top 3? Just my opinion...

it's not even that they're too similar - it'd just be a bit weird for them to go for two fairly 'heavy' headliners when they've barely even had one heavy headliner each year lately

[Rose-Colored Boy]

not the point. point is if that alleged 'rule' is in any way dependent on who the bands in question are then they should absolutely break it if it means them booking Kasabian rather than The Vaccines. The difference in day ticket sales would be unreal.

[VCK]

The Libertines and The Black Keys will be the other two headliners. Called it.

[the wonderwhy]

It's definitely going to be KOL

[Matt42]

I fear this too

Kings of Leon, Metallica, Mumford and sons would be the strongest trio they've had in years

shreds the reputation as a festival at the cutting edge of exciting new music but would in theory totally subvert the demographic buying tickets, and would still sell out, so job done.
