Headliners 2015

[Rose-Colored Boy]

I bet you one million pounds that it isn't jazz

can't say i've listened to it but a "collaborations album with Tony Bennett" sounds pretty jazz

[kalifire]

Gaga's jazz is like Metallica's heavy metal, I'd imagine.

[Perks]

Random obscure theory - John Fogerty has played the festival before and absolutely nailed it, albeit not on the Pyramid stage.He's doing a tour focused on the early CCR albums (ie full of classics) and has a gap until 30th June.

This, this would be swell.. Anywhere. We can but hope

[Morse Code]

I feel like Kaiser Chiefs were a bit of a rogue choice for that one.. I can imagine there was a fair amount of disappointment

Yep, can't tell you how disappointed the guy next to me was. He'd convinced himself (and his wife!) that it was going to be the purple one!

Olivia Newton John will be the Sunday female headline. If I'm wrong I'll eat my steak and chips

No she does Taylor Kinney now

Every time I see this name, my mind picutres a Taylor Swift + Sleater-Kinney collaboration. Imagine that, the band that made Modern Girl and the artist that sang Love Story, working together.

i had no idea who Taylor Kinney was and this is exactly what sprung to my mind as well

She could get Travolta out to butcher someone's name and then sing this:

Madonna's tour doesn't start till later and it starts in the U.S. I don't think she's very likely.

Closer we get I honestly think swift has (as on the rumour page) that sunday slot.

I don't agree that the tour dates put Madonna out of the running. I'd actually consider it LESS likely if the tour was over the Glasto dates - she clearly wouldn't do the same show at a festival as she would on tour and I don't see her rehearsing for Glastonbury while on tour. I can see Glastonbury being a warm up before she goes into rehearsals.

I doubt it'll happen but something made me stick £2 on it at Paddy Power. Just a bit suspicious at how UK heavy her promotion is this time around.

Tots amazeballs can't wait

[Gucci Piggy]

does Lady Gaga not count as "the likes of" Taylor Swift, this world is too complicated for me

Didn't you complain earlier today when someone said Taylor Swift and Rihanna were the same genre? They're just as similar to each other as Gaga and Swift are.

That's exactly what I thought

A Taylor Swift + Sleater Kinney headliner would be ace! Someone make it happen.

[Lubic]

I'm predicting Madonna - would definitely help her shift tour tickets worldwide if she pulls it off. No interest in seeing her though. Kanye seems like a good bet for the other headliner. Swifty to play lower down than people are expecting.

[Sketchead]

I haven't been on here for a couple of days, are we still completely guessing?

I'm so certain it's Lord Yeezus on the Saturday. No idea for the other one though.

[WolfAtYourDoor]

I know Kanye West has had more of a presence in the UK this past week or so but the announcement is still atleast 4 weeks off, surely if he was playing Glastonbury these media appearances would've been a bit later?

[Gucci Piggy]

Kanye subbed by Moz in a bid to re-brand Saturday as "dickhead day".

[FuzzyDunlop]

If I was having a bet, the value is Madonna @ 33/1.

A fiver virtually pays for your ticket, but if I had to bet it would be Blur saturday, Kanye Sunday.

"Hello, Brit Awards, Kanye here, I need you to move your ceremony to a few weeks later... because it's convenient for Yeezy, that's why!... OK, well the thing is, I'm being announced as a headliner for a festival that's already sold out... What do you mean? It makes perfect sense! Glastonbury is the centre of the universe, don't you people read efestivals?!

[FuzzyDunlop]

After reading some of the bollocks Kanye has said in thr past, he probably did say that.

As an aside, Who made up this name "Yeezy" for him too? I'd like to know. What does it mean?

It's a shortening of Yeezus

[FuzzyDunlop]

That still doesn't mean anything to me. Yeezus - as in Jesus?!

I'll google it... I'm probably making myself look thick

Edit - It's the name of his album.

Got it.

Yep. The whole album and tour played up to the media portrayal of him acting like he thinks he's God. He even literally had a song on it called "I Am A God"
