announcement

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Does anyone think Lenny Kravitz may make an appearance on the Sunday? Headlining Werchter on the Saturday and playing some Dutch festival on the Friday or vice-versa...

As long as they haven't booked John Legend (convenient tour dates) he'd be great after Lionel.

Kylie is starting to look scarily realistic.

Is it Oasis?

Would wet my pants with excitement if it was :-D Edited April 12, 2015 by JennieT

[Muppetmark]

What's become of Muppetmark?

I'm still around just in a2/step revision hell. Madmark isn't related to me but his opinions crack me up

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

I'm still convinced Kylie is going to headline Bestival & hasn't been announced yet due to BST not selling out.

Well Jennie, I'm afraid your knickers are going to be bone dry

No she is not.

[Earthwindandfire2205]

I hope its Earth Wind and Fire just for the persistence of that poster

So do I

[Perks]

Though, as you say there's no basis, given pretty much every band big enough under the sun have been mentioned for headliner, I did wonder why I hadn't seen anyone bring these up. The Cure also.

Ahhhh The Cure. Why can't it be The Cure??

Still clinging on to hope.

It's not looking good though!

[festhead]

It will be Prince

[Peroni]

Didn't have you down as a Backstreet Boys fan

love that you know howie D was in BSB.... awesome

Fair play, you've done some good digging to pick that out.

[Fivefingerjohn]

Has anyone thought that maybe when blur said they weren't headlining it was bullshit to push there ticket sales

What's with all the questions?

(Please ignore the irony)

[morph100]

No she is not.

Yeah I think she's one of the favourites now, I think the third headliner will be Pop, so kylie, Madonna, take that, taylor swift, ed sheeran......

Rock, hiphop, pop the holy trinity of glastonbury headliners in the new era.

It won't be any of them... And Kylie is and has never been a 'favourite'. Edited April 12, 2015 by Matt42

[ImGonnaLive4eva]

I think Kanye covers the pop category aswell as or even more so than the hip hop one

How many more times? Kayne is not a pop act.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Says who? I mean I now have my heart set on The Mac so I hope you're right, but there's no reason to rule out Take That that I can see. They have the hits, have the old 'Glasto-shaped hole in their tour dates' and would very much fit with the "said they weren't doing it in the Autumn but maybe could've been given a late call" reasoning being applied to others.

Well, he is. That's why he's headlining.

[Pink_Tequila]

Why?

[jcd_lowe]

I just have a sneaky feeling its McCartney. Even though Blur are the most likely.

1. Neil thought it was a solo act early in the week.

2. Has tickets to sell.

3. Exclusive somewhere else for "announcent problems"

4. Glasto shaped hole.

Were Neil's thoughts about it being a solo act based on a hunch? Could that have related to Prince who seems to have fallen through?

Once the Glasto re-sale has been and gone, it will have sold out regardless of whether or not Roskilde has. In fact, failure to secure a Glasto ticket may give someone the excuse to cost up flights to Denmark etc..

As a 5 piece then maybe they'd have an outside chance. Just the 3 of them as it is these days .. No chance at all!

If we were talking whether they'd be booked initially then yeah sure but I think Glasto would be foolish to turn their nose up at them based on that if they needed an urgent replacement for someone.
