[Diva Sam]

Erm. Best I can do.

8 days after NME i'd say its credible enough that Odd's wouldnt of changed that much since then.

[ghandi]

calm down, calm down.

It can't be her, cos Emily said it was a name on the William Hill list at the time of the NME awards, and i'm pretty sure it wasn't on that list.

Now, who's actually got a copy of the William Hill list from that time? It might tell us who's headlining.

"

So... that's 11 names ! almost anyone and everyone thats been talked about over 1146 pages! it's Madonna isn't it?

[eFestivals]

Neil have you been sat on this information all the time without telling us?!

how could I have been "sat" on a video that's been embedded in these pages and which is available on youtube?

From an article back in October......

Although most ticket holders will have to take a punt on the lineup and purchase tickets without knowing the full extent of what’s in store at the festival, William Hill have laid short odds on a long-anticipated appearance by Fleetwood Mac, who are at 4/1 to headline on Sunday night, while Muse and AC/DC both have odds of 5/1 to perform. Other names included are the enigmatic Kate Bush, and the on-off love-hate saga of Oasis, both of whom get odds of 8/1. Noel Gallagher as a solo venture is also included, along with U2, the Stone Roses and Coldplay, while Robert Plant and the notoriously festival-shy Adele are outside bets with 25/1 odds.

[Bonehead> Clapton]

I cant imagine Madonna being on that list back then? Has to be the Roses or Prince?

[ImGonnaLive4eva]

So stone roses or Coldplay then?

[Mezhyp1]

I thought she only said an act that's on william hills lost might be involved, and I think Kanye West may have been on the betting at that time, I may be able to find out what the list was at the time of the nme awards, I will look into it

The 2 types of people I've ever heard say "I don't like pop music" IRL.

1. Under 18s

2. Archetypal 'metalheads'

Says she is, doesn't really narrow us down to anything I don't think.

I know it's just this thread is going round in doughnuts it's driving me mad lol

I thought she said it was someone who wasn't a fav on the bookies list, so someone who was 50-1 plus I can't remember all the bands but the ones that I think I remember with outside odds were

Elton

Bowie

Macca

Daft punk I think

sure Prince was there

Radiohead

Madonna

Adele

Queen

I can't remember the rest

edit

add Led Zep, The Who and Smiths

Damn! So u telling me the 'The Wee Papa Girl Rappers' were not on the william hill list. UN-BLOODY-BELIEVABLE tsst

Oh bloody hell! why wont emily just put us out of our misery!

[Matt42]

It's annoying that I can't retract my final final final prediction

Because I'm starting to think it is Madonna

[Diva Sam]

Wasn't Adele on there too?

[grayfitz]

There was a fake poster there on that ridiculous glasto chat FB page, I didn't manage to capture a pic of it as it has been removed, had some funky fonts and black stone cherry sub headlining, would have been worth a laugh

Here's a screenshot of it:

what's Phil Collins up to?

Probably sucking David Cameron's cock somewhere I'd have thought.

[Hugh Jass]

This is a point. When did the Sunday 'legend' become the 'slightly cheesy enjoyed kind of ironically' act rather than a bona fide legend?

When they ran out of legends.
