Headliners 2015

[Mezhyp1]

Does anyone have the appetite to read through Shaun Keaveny's twitter feed to see if he's dropped any clues as to what he's been up to...?

Nothing obvious to suggest he was up to anything particularly related to any interview

Ok anyone think depeche mode could headline?

That is my dream headliner. They would be absolutely amazing I reckon. Unfortunately it does not seem very likely. I think it is going to be the Roses and I would be ecstatic at that.

I don't think your going to be ecstatic either way eastynh

Don’t do Twitter but SK said on air last week that he was going to be meeting one of his all-time musical heroes. No mention whatsoever of Glastonbury or it bearing any relation though. He is mainly into Dad Rock (& indeed was at the Who O2 gig with Matt Everitt last night).

What exactly was said about Blur not headlining?

Dave Rowntree confirmed on XFM they won't be playing

I know we rubbished him but didnt Babbgy4Roses say that an interview had been done and from that the Roses would be announced.

Maybe he wasnt completely full of shit?

Waddu I know! I'm just wishful thinking here!

don't do it to yourself, he was absolutely full of shit.

[Mouseboy11]

The fact he doesn't mention what the interview is about I find telling, if it was the Roses the mention that they'd been interviewed itself would cause a fanfare. Does that make sense to anyone else?

We didn't rubbish him. He openly admitted he was trolling us.

He is also a massive Roses fan.

This is very true. But let's not get all Baggie4Roses!

[Spindles]

Yeah, just some tit. Ignore everything he said and move along.

I'm firmly of the opinion that Madonna could headline and pull it off, she's arguably maintained her relevance far more than a certain purple 80s contemporary and is savvy enough to know exactly what would work for the big crowd and TV audience.

Not really but he did start today's show with The Stone Roses song Driving South. Read into that what you will!!!

you're trying to apply logic to bullshit

[Mouseboy11]

Not bullshit, I'm talking about the 6music interview they've said it coming in the next week

ah, apologies, i thought you were referring to baggy4roses or whatever his name was

[FrancisH]

Roses rumours were around quite a bit before Baggys though to be fair, he was outed as a troll but that doesn't discount them...

true. one ignores mike99 at one's peril.

[russycarps]

this is coming from the same person who was championing Metallica last year - an act who haven't had a noteworthy album in fourteen years now. she has a huge back catalogue of hits. if she played a greatest hits-esque set it'd be one of the best the Pyramid had seen (song-wise - the performance may be a shambles, but that;'s a risk for any booking)

You cannot be serious. You think a Madonna set would rank alongside bowie, macca, radiohead, Neil young etc??

Ye gods

[Matt42]

Really exciting to know there's a big chance the lineup is out this week, and that's we aren't even sure of 80% of the lineup!

Also, I'd like to be surprised and see the stone roses announced but I'm now feeling it's gonna be swift

God I'm worried how it's gonna go down though, if Foo Fighters, Kanye West and Taylor Swift are the trio. Wonder if some goers who've wanted to stop going to glastonbury for a while will finally throw in the towel :/

Did anymore come of Big Vern's info?

I do wonder about her Madgesty. I do think it will be a female headliner and I could totally see why she'd be open to it at this point.

it's very normal for interviews to be done in advance of an announcement, to only be revealed when the announcement comes around. efests has published one of those today.

An interview like that could be about just about anything that the act is wanting to push (normally a product, so tour, or album), and about the least likely thing would be for a (comparatively) poorly paid show such as Glasto.

So an interview around Glasto is possible, but probably unlikely.

On what basis?
