Headliners 2015

[mr gumby]

You missed Men At Work.

Yeah, but you can only get so many acts on in one day. John Farnham had to be left out too!

[mr gumby]

I'd edit Crowded House out of that list before any Kiwis see it.

Oops! Good call!

[home to you]

AC/DC

Kylie

Nick Cave

Crowded House

Divinyls

Midnight Oil

Temper Trap

Olivia Newton-John

Sounds good!

I guess I'll be watching Tame Impala headline the John Peel

Rather you than me! ;-)

word I'm hearing - it may be wrong, tho is from a grouping with go0od info - is that Foos aren't yet a signed and sealed deal tho there's no reason to think that won't happen in the near future.

surprising, although i'm sure it's more just a 'need to sign on the dotted line' affair more than anything. would be shocked if they're not there

[JoeyT]

Thanks Neil. Any clue as to which day?

The suggestion in what i've heard is that getting it signed and sealed is pretty much a formality.

nope.

Yeah probably just minor details need finalising.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Whoever it is that's clutching the AC/DC straws might want to clutch one more at this news.

I may be wrong, I may have missed it but this is the first time you have posted words to the effect of "word I'm hearing" in relation to headliners for a while.

Things are ramping up a notch!!

[JoeyT]

They'll be TBC on the rumours page before we know it

[eFestivals]

Things are ramping up a notch!!

I wish they were.

After reading the first few words, I thought we were finally gonna get a good new headline rumour - but instead we got a little bit of doubt on the only strong rumour! The suspense goes on ... !

[neil999]

come on glastonbuty bookers , time to get some work done.. stop making tea and playing candy crush and book some bands

[zeppelin]

I wish they were.

Wish they were

Wish you were

Wish you were here

Pink Floyd?!

[neil999]

really thought we would have had a couple of names by now i mean the transfer windows been open two weeks now and still nothing...hang on wrong forum

[Changeme]

im hoping for Pulp, what a showman is Jarvis. The 1995 performance still gives me goosebumps when i watch it back on youtube

Or

The Libertines would be good.

[Matt42]

I wish they were.

I must say it's a very odd year, it's nearly feburary and we've only got one very strongly rumoured headliner.

Neil, just asking out of the blue. Have you got ANY idea of a potential trio? Or do you think they haven't even got three headliners lined up yet?

i've got no better ideas than anyone else, ultimately.

I don't think it's AC/DC tho.

Any chances they could be considering someone that wouldn't jump out at first as likely, just like the whole metallica thing last year? I think I remember you posting that there was whispers about it early on but you didn't think it was likely, and like us all you brushed it off until the rumour actually started gaining more steam?

the only other options that they could go for that wouldn't jump out as likely is stuff that we've all heavily discussed - big pop headliners, hip-hop headliners etc. whoever's announced, i'm sure we will've discussed them as a possibility for a fair few pages at least - just maybe less so than some of the others that we've stuck with (Florence, Elton, Foos, AC/DC etc)

[JoBalls]

Is this on the basis that if Foo's do it, that they are unlikely to have two "heavier" headliners? Or just from things you've heard?

Times like this makes taylor swift seem more likely...

I'm kinda joking and i'm kinda not...

all evidence pointing to it not being them - their tour dates, their large fees, their stage demands, and the unlikeliness of their being two quite heavy rock acts headlining as you say (although if the organisers were offered both, i'm sure they'd take both). their tour dates more than anything - they don't do two nights on the run, and have dates either side of the Glastonbury dates. if they were headlining, they would've surely cleared their schedule up a bit
