[Bisque]

Too many pictures of white people

[The Placid Casual]

Whatever became of these #LADS?

[Untz]

Too many pictures of humans, how about some Bottlefish and the Catmen:

Catfish and the Bottlemen? playing Glastonbury mate

[The Placid Casual]

Catfish and the Bottlemen? playing Glastonbury mate

Thank fuck. They're saving the festival.

[hamishrankin]

Biffy will not play Glasto, they are having a year out and writing a new album and not doing any shows, i can't imagine they'll do anything till 2016, they said after the Barrowland gigs they were taking a long break, however, i can't imagine it's easy to turn down a headline offer from the biggest festival in the UK

[Winslow Leach]

Thank fuck. They're saving the festival.

They're changing music, they're bringing people together.

[Andy0808 v5]

I have spent all day reigniting my love for Fleetwood Mac, I now refuse to believe it is anyone but them as the third heAdliner

[The Placid Casual]

For every AC/DC there's a BonScott

For every Taylor Swift there's a Martin Ashford

For every Nick Cave there's a Russycarps

For every Catfish and the Bottlemen, there's a WessexBoy

I hope so, my £20 bet will net me a small fortune.

(But I still hope it's Blur)

Who with, any bookies still taking bets?

[superhands91]

I hope it isn't Blur.. because I just bought Splendour in the Grass tickets..

I hope it isn't Fleetwood Mac.. because I bought Tickets to one of their Australia shows

I hope it IS the Strokes.. I know they said they wouldn't be playing but so did Blur and Fleetwood who seem to be the main contenders at this stage..

[Gucci Piggy]

Hahaha why did every band back then look like such a bunch of cretins?

[TheNewUnion]

I actually liked Little Man Tate (though not enough to drive to Blackpool to see them, despite having bought tickets for their show)

[matt2007]

Just a pile of photos of pissed off looking men.....except the cat one

[Fivefingerjohn]

Biffy Clyro did briefly cross my mind the other day, but would go against what Emily said about the rock band, though she said that before we understand the third headliner to be booked, I know they aren't meant to be active but that could be their one big show this year

Il consider it very unlikely but still mildly possible

I just thought they would be willing at this later stage. If Emily was struggling after a band was pulled. Strike me as guys he would want to do it for the music/popularity rather than money.

[Wooderson]

A lot of respek going out to Potfish and the Bottlemen.

This is the article that mentions Blur, published today..

I'm sure that quote is from a few weeks ago

[sime]

I can now confirm the Sunday headliner is me and Sime answering questions on mid twentieth century combustion engines whilst covered in gooseberry jam. Update the poster.

Mmmmmm tarty....!

[swede]

Fuckin right, proper lads, proper tune

Every song sounded the same !

[eFestivals]

The Daily Star is saying Prince pulled out again last week. They have been known to be right!,

nah, the Star have only had VERY crap info for the last couple of years, since Dirty Desmond sacked off a load of staff.

Around this time last year they were claiming Oasis would be headlining in 2014.

The Star might be right with that story - it's an idea that's quite strong in my mind too - but I guarantee they're only guessing.

[eFestivals]

Why is p***** still on the rumours list if Neil says it defo isn't them? Can't be that sure?

I've not said it's definitely not him.

I'm pretty sure it isn't, but I don't have enough to rule him out entirely.

[russycarps]

there's still a chance of prince doing a "hit and run" tour in june, which will include a virtually unannounced glastonbury.

This is the shred of hope I'm clinging on to.

the 'he's pulled out' story seems far more likely than this outcome, but i'm also clinging on to this hope. if he's got more shows lined up (as he's apparently in June around London) i'm sure he'd want the Glastonbury headline slot kept under wraps until those shows are sold out (as i'm sure the rush for them won't be quite as massive the second time round)

I dont think it's even about selling out the london shows, more for the dramatic impact an unannounced headline slot would have, in keeping with this hit and run crap.
