Headliners 2015

[greenArmy12]

I would take Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords impression of Bowie as a headliner over Prince

I really want Bowie

[JoeyT]

Van Morrison third down would be brilliant, I would defo watch that. I take it that was the info you had heard JoeyT?

Bowie would be much preferred personally, I just can't vision either of them despite the info

Yes from the horses mouth Van Morrison 3rd down Saturday.

[CaledonianGonzo]

People may complain if Bowie was billed third down

Though it'd mean you could catch another headliner later on. It's a win-win for everyone.

[Bonehead> Clapton]

Is it just me that doesn't like the Stone Roses? Maybe you had to be there at the time, but the bloke can't sing.

Yea Probably...ive yet to see you like or praise any artist on here. Always so negative

[Mouseboy11]

"Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking.."

[Matt42]

What a weird year

[Hugh Jass]

Bowie hasn't performed live for ten years now due to poor health, why do people think he's suddenly going to come back for Glasto? We all want it to happen but it won't.

His Purpleness it is then.

[Fivefingerjohn]

It won't be Bowie with his health will it. He turned down a multimillion pound deal to perform one song based on his health. Or have I been misinformed?

Can't wait for that

[CaledonianGonzo]

That's pretty unfair. I actually quite liked their Can You Dig It? one.

[Hugh Jass]

Can't wait for that

That's pretty freaky...

[TheRedSeat]

Van Morrison effectively supporting Kanye West is gloriously loopy

[The Nal]

Is it just me that doesn't like the Stone Roses? Maybe you had to be there at the time, but the bloke can't sing.

I was too young for them first time around but I like the first album and enjoyed the gigs I saw in 2012. He can't sing a fucking note though you're right, which sort of ruins the gigs to be honest.

I like them I spose but with 1 and a 1/4 decent albums worth of material and a really shit singer you'd really have to put them in the overrated category. Along with Crosby, Still and Nash.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I've actually never seen Van, so I'm in the mibbes aye camp. How's his act in this day and age? Pipes in good working order?

[yellowsnow]

How certain are you of this information Neil? 90% sure?

[kalifire]

Everything points towards P-rinse, as far as I can tell. I just hope Taylor's still somewhere in the mix.

Is this enough info to elevate the Purple one to a SR, Neil?

Saw him at The Green Man in 2012 and it was a very good set

[Stone_Love]

My take on it too. I'm continuing to believe it's The Roses until I'm proved to be bitterly disappointed.

And The Doors. And Bob Dylan. And Elvis.

I enjoyed his show the last time he played Glasters. Finished with Brown Eyed Girl and Gloria. Job done.

[eFestivals]

How certain are you of this information Neil? 90% sure?

i've had similar info from different sources who, in theory, shouldn't be dicking me about. But i've no way of really knowing if they're dicking me about, or even if they've been dicked about via the person they heard from.

I only get to find out how it is when something get s announced, but I think that what i've heard is probably accurate.

[eFestivals]

Is this enough info to elevate the Purple one to a SR, Neil?

nope, because I've had no info on him.

[Wooderson]

nope, because I've had no info on him.

exactly, if Bowie was to make a comeback, i'd expect it to be his own shows, probably indoor and smaller initially.

headlining Glastonbury just seems way to big for someone who hasn't performed in a decade.

[TheRedSeat]

I'm in the same boat. Know someone who is a huge fan who caught him at a Jazz Club in London and Albert Hall last year and said he was in great form both times but they've also seem him going through the motions as well. I get the impression the weaponry is still there but weather you get to hear it depends on how motivated he's feeling?
