not really, as they haven't listed loads of bands at all. they've been saying Muse, Coldplay and Foo Fighters for quite a while and I can't recall them actually saying that any other act would headline.

Daily Mail reported Adele, The Mirror reported Fleetwood Mac as being in advanced talks.

 

This is the thing, the only name they have included is Adele while still not dropping the other 3 so that does kind of mount to whispers Neil had heard about Muse playing but not closing. The Mail/Mirror are not as good with music info like that. Generally I think they have just copied an article.

Well from seetickets at least, Adele has no tickets at all holding back her being announced, Muse have a few but it's generally sold and Coldplay still have a lot to sell for their starting Wednesday Wembley show-really pushed it with 4 dates, not even standing sold yet so that'll be a April at least announcement I would think.

Muse 1st probably or Foos if it is indeed them, Adele has no reason to hold back and I doubt announcing her in April instead of now is going hold back any fears/nerves of playing the slot she has.

It's not like The Sun have mentioned every name though, they have been pretty consistent with the 3 headers and in a separate article 'teased' the appearances of all 3 plus Adele. There is nothing to write off something being worked in some shape should she agree to it.

not true.

One article they published said Adele and not one of Muse or Foos (I forget which).

Stop using me - using me wrongly - in your own guesses that you want to pretend are more than guesses. :rolleyes:

Oh?.....I know of the article that had all 3 of then and then the one teasing all 3 with Adele. I don't know of one saying Adele and not one of the others so apologies if so. They still haven't gone on a announce every name possible though, stuck very much to the same circle.

How so? Did you not mention a theory behind Adele and Muse both playing but with Muse not closing through some info?

That is all I meant.

can you post that article please, I can't find it.

closest thing I can find is an article about Coldplay headlining, with the last line being a guess about Adele being the final headliner.

this?

With the ELO announcement this morning I have the taste for announcements. Hopefully we don't have to wait as long for the line up this year.

It has still come way later than Lionel Richie came last year. I think if anything it'll all be later. I can see Coldplay announcing they're headlining at the NME awards and then another announcement late march. Then the poster probably mid/late april.

that's the Daily Mail, not The Sun though.

sorry didn't have a clue what everybody was bickering about

this gigwise article mentions that The Sun listed Adele as one of the headliners, but i can't find the The Sun article itself

the first one they did was in June, saying Foo Fighters:

the next one they did was Coldplay joining FF, in October (at the bottom they mention a guess of the final one being Adele):

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/6690360/Coldplay-headline-act-at-Glastonbury-for-fourth-time.html

 

the next one they did was Muse in December, joining Coldplay and FF:

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/6797416/Muse-join-Coldplay-and-Foo-Fighters-in-trio-of-rock-headliners-at-Glastonbury.html

 

 

unless I've missed an article, they seem pretty certain that it will be those 3, and haven't said that it will be anyone else, let alone listing many others.

the first one the sun did last year (around Sept) had Adele and not one of foos or muse (I forget which it omitted).

Back in Sep and the latest in Dec with the extra article not dropping either. Bit harsh to say I'm pretending or making something up when it's there in black and white. The article afterall last time didn't mention anything headlining, just teasing acts and given your info of Muse playing but not closing it's not absurd.

So someone in The Sun just mentioned Adele almost in passing that their money was on Adele?, it wasn't actually them saying it was. Then there was an article teasing her in the mix with the other 3. As you say unless you have missed something, there isn't an article except from The Mail aka crap that says she is one.

Emily ruled out Foos for this year. Thats good enough for me.

Not her actual wording, it was something like they have headers for next year and we'd like to have Foo's back in a couple of years. I can't remember seeinf her actuallt say, Foo's won't be there.

Yeah, that's just saying what we all think anyway.  If something has changed and The Sun has got wind of it, then a statement Emily made last June with the word "probably" means nothing.

"I would love for them to come back. I really hope they can. Hopefully soon," Eavis said. "I think it'll probably be in a couple of years, but it would be brilliant to have them back."

What, when?

I think my mind has merged 2 different articles from the same time. This one:

And this one, which states the headliners are already in place (which wouldn't include Foos if she said she hopes they'll be back in a couple of years):
