Fleetwood Mac would be unbelievable. I'm seeing then in Birmingham but I also saw them two tours back in Wembley Arena. They are a tour de force live. Spine tingling stuff from Stevie Nicks and one of the best guitarists I've ever seen in Buckingham. He is a monster.

Seems like she has dropped off the radar a bit..was she ever one the rumors page?!

There was quite a stretch where it was believed by quite a few on here that she would quite likely be the Sunday headliner. I think this was back in November/December, though. She spent quite a bit of time as a strong rumour and was downgraded about a month back, maybe. She's still there, though.

Understand that Kings of Leon aren't that popular and probably don't suit festivals but Biffy are incredible live. Seen them five times.

Aye tbf Biffy are sick live. Their Leeds 2013 headline slot was one of the best headline sets I've seen. It was the best time I've seen them by far, though, and was clearly a special occasion to them, though I suppose headlining Glasto would be too.

But they won't do it this year. Probably next year.

Reminds me of a dream I had where someone chopped my nob off with a rusty spoon

Give you KOL as they are souless live these days but don't agree with Biffy as they put their all in their sets and are very enjoyable to watch (obviously if you don't like that time of music fair enough but wouldn't put them in the sh*t category) :)

Oh yeah! Completely missed her on the list. Not my cup of tea personally, just wondered why all the talk had died down.

Based on the new info, my money's on Blur I think. No complaints there.

I love Blur but hope it's not them purely cause I'm already seeing them the week before haha. I'd much rather see them at Glasto than BST but I dunno if I could sell my BST ticket since it doesn't seem to be selling out...

Pray to the gods it's Bowie. I'll dress up as a different one of his alter-egos for every day of the festival

Totally agree we'll be seeing them 12th June but if they get announced for Glasto too we'll be there...seen them twice now in 2009 & 2013 they are just amazing

2009 set was the best, playing Oh Well was a total highlight for me :)

It doesn't matter if you are at the back they sound really good even in the MEN...I remember seeing Foos there in 2007 and we were as high up at the back as you could get but that gig was just the best!!

I'm getting really excited for my giggage pre-Glastonbury :)

its gotta be blur really hasn't it. Same thing happened in 2010 when U2 couldn't play.. Gorillaz get booked. This year possibly tried to get prince,fell through- blur get booked. Damien albarn= glastos contingency plan.

On the other hand...Fleetwood Mac have been saying for years that they'll do it. Maybe they finally cracked and thought 'fuck it let's just do it'.

Fascinated to know if his Purpleness fucked The Eavae off again.

if they're searching for a last minute replacement then it's gotta be hasn't it? can't think of any other reason that they'd leave it this late (the booking) and have to go for an act who themselves have ruled themselves out (assuming it's Blur, or even Mac)

What happened to Taylor Swift?

she is still rumoured for Pyramid and I STILL think she could end up headlininG if she's already in the running. It would be a travesty to have Florence over her.

Yes, especially if GFL have said we will match whatever Gidding is paying. Hmmmm

    • Muse will be about but the issue with Muse is that they’ll have the pick of doing IOW, BST, Glasto, R&L or big parks/stadiums.

    • Not sure what this means for 2027 but it looks like Holt Farm's website and email are both now inactive and unavailable.   It'll be a shame if they don't operate for 2027 as it was an excellent alternative to the other off-site offerings.   Fingers crossed they're just enjoying their downtime 🤞
    • Deftones, Blink, Muse?   Deftones as the next bump up makes all the sense, Blink as the "band that has never played before" and round out with Muse as its been a long time since they headlined and they have a new album coming which seems on the heavier side from the singles so far.   I could see Muse do their own tour to be fair, maybe MCR in their place? Could also see Deftones switched out for Slipknot/SOAD depending on who is about.
    • I have no issue with the Primavera crowd in most respects. They’re always friendly, respectful and no hint that there could be trouble at any point.   However…the talking is horrific here. The xx was pretty much ruined for me due to people having conversations with their mates the whole way through. Noticed it from all different nationalities across the weekend…English, Irish, Spanish etc. There seems to be no understanding of the nuances of when it’s okay to talk and when it isn’t. And obviously the sound being quiet at a lot of spots on the main stages exacerbates the issue. That alone has made me reconsider whether I will be coming back, it would probably take a lineup as good as this year (unlikely)
