Maybe both should headline and we'll see :lol:

Would be an interesting experiment! To be honest, I'm not bothered which acts get bigger crowds than others. I'm happy enough getting to see performers play who I like. That being said, the crowd for Dolly last year was insane!

hmmm .... someone has just said something to me which suggests its not Prince, tho that could really be the result of keeping up deceptions.

But anyway, who else could it be that's be that's a massive act, a solo(ish) star, and an act they've been after for years? Give me names, people!

Okay, I'll bite.

Florence :P

Yeah, I'm never too fussed by that. I was right down the front with that huuuuuge Stones crowd, so I never find it too difficult to get where I want to be.

Of course they would. the people on here like to think they speak on behalf of the glastonbury crowd, but The Roses would defo pull a bigger crowd in the uk than prince

Bit of a wild assumption you are making there sir! Speaking of which, I could be wrong but aren't you doing exactly that with your second sentence!?

IMO - Foos, Kanye & Prince is a pretty disappointing set of headliners for the greatest festival on the planet.

However, for me, it's all about West Holts, Acoustic and Avalon, so not really bothered.

who are you expecting?

Pretty sure most festivals around the world would give a massive amount of money to secure those names.

Ohhh I love roller coasters! My other favourite is the Aerosmith one , love the thrust! Although I've yet to visit blooming alton towers, lol but anyway its the same thrill of watching this tread right now ha ha

Probably trying to diffuse the smell, in fear Prince may back out.

Don McLean? ... Just watched an article on the meaning of American Pie lyrics and got me thinking.

I know he isn't really big enough to headline, but him and Madge could do an extended 2 hour version of American Pie and give Glastonbury the biggest singalong of all time!!

If it's solo (ish), could it be a so and so & the somethings. Such as Tom Petty or Nick Cave. I know neither of them fulfill all criteria, but you never know.

Only my personal preference, but either of those would kick prince's arse (even though I like prince!). Only Bowie or Floyd would be better for me.

    • Its taught me basically to acknowledge to turn up for the bigger acts even 10 minutes before if I wanted to see a band before and just get as central and far forward as possible so the show is at least there. Volbeat wasn't hard to access the front for at all but I didnt stay in for the whole show. They are a bit of a 45/50 minutes hits band for me. They had a crowd don't get me wrong but they are the weakest headliner in the trio all the last 3 times they've appeared. But then the festival are putting on headliners at some other festivals on their late night closing stage. The only thing I probably would have liked to do is see more of Sabaton as I enjoyed them, just the tiredness and adapting to a different overseas festival etc. The start didn't exactly go to plan for me and I knew I was struggling and didn't want to kill my bodies energy completely for the Sunday night.   I saw Palaye Royale, 30 minutes of Sabaton and 20 minutes of Limb Bizkit as I was just going past but I didnt need to stay longer for them. I checked the setlist they were doing and do be honest I stood there while they played a video recording and couldn't be bothered with it. While they looked good in that position on paper I didn't need to see them again to say I had.
