Must be kanye

[CHRLY]

Would roses be big enough to fulfill the expectation now hanging on the Saturday night spot?

[CHRLY]

It's a shame as people class Arcade fire and kasabian, in the same 'genre' because their music is not alike

[plaskins]

awh man, not cool

if not Prince, then surely it's gotta be somebody, anybody, better than Elbow. it just can't have gone from 'three of the biggest acts in the world' to Kasabian and Elbow

I wouldn't class Arcade Fire as one of the 'three biggest acts in the world' either

Straw clutcher here.

Are we to believe that Prince's official twitter account denied the Glasto rumour - then deleted it ?

Easy for someone to open a "@3rdeyegirI" account using capital i at the end. Use #prince and its out there.

Prince has PurplePR Music representing him in the UK. Nothing on their Twitter account about it

I'm still holding out hope...

It's all "white boys with guitars" according to some.

Hopefully we're getting some oxford posh boys headlining this year

[UEF]

Two anomalies then with last years headliners.

OAPs trying to remember songs they'd written forty years ago.

Public school boys with nits in their hair.

Correct me if wrong, not a big prince fan... But aren't 3rdeyegirl just a backing band he's toured with? Maybe they didn't get the memo or are simply not involved with his glastonbury headline slot.

They have obviously been told to delete the tweet

Surely with Kasabian being on the Sunday night we can't end up with Elbow as the Saturday night headliners. Huge anticlimax. I was expecting something pretty huge for Saturday. Led Zep/ACDC kind of level. Not bloody Elbow.

[JGP]

You were expecting Led Zep, and wonder why you were disappointed?

[Trebor]

Led Zep never said that. Robert Plant said that about his new band.

[ICGenie]

Sorry if I'm missing something here, but did the tweet actually reference Glastonbury?

[willutalk]

Well Robert Plant at the Glastonbury Extravaganza means that Eavis is connected with a Led Zepp member so Led Zepp could seem more likely to play Glasto in future years. Although it doesn't mean at all that they will.

[mrtourette]

Incisive.

[CaledonianGonzo]

The folk longing for a return to a lower-key set of headliners to make Glastonbury less of a buzz event and tickets easier to come by might yet get their wish.
