Headliners 2015

[Rose-Colored Boy]

I left school in May '81, at 16.

Turning 50 this year? 'Grats.

[Gnomicide]

Mr Rogers is more likely than the Roses.

The Brodge?

I can't remember what was said about Big Sean/ Kanye in this thread, but Big Sean is playing a short uk tour 29/30 June and 1 July

edit: This isn't new news I feel, my bad

Whos Big Sean?

[Alan_C]

Great booking but it's live on the BBC. Something tells me this is a deal breaker for Brown. His voice is a joke.

Why? He always allows BBC to record him at festivals, he does TV appearances etc.

Foo Fighters / ELO

Kanye West / Pharrell Williams

Blur / Taylor Swift

Would be my mid March guess.. And it's probably wrong, because I... Alike some. Know jack shit.

ELO! Cooooome oooooooon!

Having missed Hyde Park, I've got to see Jeff this year.

[Woffy]

No, it's a dirty weekend in Blackpool.

If i was the meat in a P***** / Adele sandwich I would have very definite stipulations regarding who is on top.

aye, you wouldn't want to crush the little fella (not a euphemism). he'd be more purple than ever (again, not a euphemism).

But Prince doesn't confirm gigs more than six weeks in advance right? So this mean it ain't him?

For his own gigs, yes. But his planned performance in Copenhagen in August 2013 was officially announced in February, six months in advance.

[matt2007]

when he played the Hop Festival it was announced well in advance

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Damn..

[TheSeventhOne]

It was announced early May so not really.

Hi guys, long time lurker since 2009! Finally decided I should join the gang.

So I'm actually really excited for Kanye (if he's there)... but where's the main source for this big rumour? Being favourite on PP and people talking?

I think Neil said he'd had a little to suggest Kanye might be headlining, also Palma Violets said to someone that he's headlining, a 6 Music DJ said he's a rumour and Big Sean is doing (seemingly) his only European dates around Glastonbury weekend and as Kanye's protégé he's likely to be tagging along if he does anything. No major links but the little bits are better than we have on any other acts, really.

Welcome

Welcome

Thank you! It's nice to be part of this fantastic set-up.

[Woffy]

Welcome thisisthesam.

Whilst Dental is indisputably the best finder / provider / compiler of goss' & info. on here...and Neil obviously has his sources, Matt42 is probably by the most reliable.

First time ive posted in a while (can't actually remember if i have posted before)

Without being recognised on this forum I can imagine whatever I say will go down like a lead balloon, but oh well!

Regarding Stone Roses: they are not active, have no plans for any material to be released and won't be anywhere near this years festival...that is what my sources tell me anyway

For what it's worth, I can fully imagine Kanye and Blur to make up the rest of the headliners.

[Woffy]

Also, if you interact with Russy be aware that he doesn't like Lykke Li. So lead with that as your 'in'.

*runs for cover...*

;) ;)

Elaborate on your sources Stimo...

...then we'll shoot you down

Edit - just noticed my inadvertant Roses reference.

PP has now pulled down betting on the saturday headliner.

Ah, I couldn't disclose that info! I'm inclined to believe the source though, he informed me of their Heaton Park plans before the rumours began.

Don't like you already

I'm not sure there's anyone here who has convinced themselves the SR are playing, tbf.

Is there?

No no, but I saw a few hopes being raised and thought I'd pass on my knowledge! I've lurked on this thread for weeks, I can't keep count of how many times I've been convinced of a headliner...changes everyday! I need some news Asap!
