[GeoHall]

I'm pretty certain Maccabees will be in with a shout of headlining one of the nights.

Not played the festival since 09 .. New album coming out .. Large fan base etc

This

[willutalk]

Disclosure

The Chemical Brothers

Nine Inch Nails

[The Placid Casual]

Friday - Royal Blood

Saturday - Weezer

sunday - Moby

In that case, fuck the main stage headliners

[Festival Liam]

Bassment Jaxx

The Vaccines

Dizzee Rascal

Vampire Weekend

Chvrches (at a push if new album does well)

Bjork

Royal Blood need 2 albums. The National need a break. Foals need to headline Pyramid when they return.

[01seb]

The Chemical Brothers

Tinie Tempah

Sigur Ros

[rawrsomesauce]

Bastille will definitely be up there I think, they're unfortunately big enough to do it

[Guest]

The Vaccines

Bjork

NIN

The Vaccines are more of a disappointing certainty, Bjork and NIN are wishlist.

[Mouseboy11]

If they hang around (it looks like they might) The Libertines must be in with a shout?

[Guest]

A shout of "Oi! Piss off!", from me.

[CHRLY]

Surely headline? I know they didn't headline R+L in 2010 but they played to over 60,000 People at Hyde park last night

[sisco]

Alt J

I just don't think they have the appeal to headline Glastonbury, they still didn't sell out Hyde Park but yeah they had a big crowd. I think if they put them up against the biggest headliner then it'd work.

Think they'd sub the biggest headliner on the Pyramid if they played.

[TheSeventhOne]

Sigur Ros

New Order

Kraftwerk

[Sketchead]

Think Foals will either headline the Other against a heavyish/non NME headliner or play third from top on Pyramid.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Royal Blood headlining could be possible. Jake Bugg just headlined.

The programme confirms Jake Bugg was a bump-up from The Park (presumably to replace Metallica) - and he's far more popular (for some reason) than Royal Blood.

Some hilarious stuff in this thread though - if Tinie Tempah doesn't have enough material to last a 40-minute slot third-down at Wireless then he sure as hell doesn't have enough to satisfy people looking to avoid Florence and her Machine for 90 minutes

If I had to put money on a bet for it I'd lump it on Calvin Harris but I'm not too confident

[Gucci Piggy]

Jake Bugg on The Park? That doesn't seem right at all. And where would Mogwai have played? I would have thought a bump up from John Peel would make more sense.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

My bad, I misread it as 'The Park Stage' when it does indeed say 'The Peel Stage' - but nevertheless the crux of my point still stands, Jake Bugg wasn't originally booked for an Other Stage headliner so to use that booking as a starting point from which to argue who could and couldn't be booked there is a little void.

Oh good haha. Yeah I agree with your point, and I assumed that was what had happened.

[Bobs]

The Libertines.

Not big enough to headline, and will do a lot for the exposure, surely?

[dentalplan]

They'd probably have them sub Pyramid to save from damaging the Pyramid headliner's crowd.

Though I think they'll follow the money and headline somewhere else rather than sub at Glastonbury.

[CHRLY]

After a day of listening to Tool..... Tool have to headline the Sunday Other
