Anyone know which bookies are taking bets for headliners?

Can't find one atm?

I think Betfair are taking bets on Coldplay's opening song.....Enter your own joke below⬇

that they'd be one, that they're still working on it, and that what it is is a secret.

 

my guess is the Other stage renamed for a year...or the three main headliners to cover a song each

Muse, Radiohead and Coldplay is a fucking trio and a half

damn son

One genuinely great band and two pretty average ones who have been awful for at least the last decade.

However if Radiohead finally grace the pyramid after all this time I wouldn't give two figs who headlines the other nights.

Didn't lady gaga do a Bowie tribute at the Grammys?? Wouldn't at all be surprised if she was involved. Leading it even

I'll be pissed off if there is a Radiohead / New Order clash. 

Radiohead can do Friday. 

Radiohead - Fri

New Order - Sat

Something on the sunday

Perfect.

I think she's busy in the studio/looking to return to American Horror Story this year. I doubt she is going to knock together a band for Glastonbury. 2017 on the other hand...

Finally? They've already headlined it twice.

Perhaps the Bowie tribute with live acts could be the other stage Friday opener this year. 

[eFestivals]

word I'm hearing today is that Adele is happening.

It's very likely correct.

Chances of Radiohead fading, fading...  

[sloseph]

definitely happening as a headliner?

are you still backing Muse as the 3rd and final?

[arcade fireman]

Load of shite. Maybe Radiohead didn't fancy it again? In which case hard to blame the bookers, plus there's not many other great headline sized bands playing this year.

They're not 100% ruled out yet, but since all the info for months has been Muse, Adele, Coldplay then it does look unlikely. Just gotta hold on to that 'Muse playing but not headlining' info...

[Lubic]

I really doubt Emily would describe Adele as a British band. Loaded's info is probably months out of date as that is when they published their previous article.

unless they've really agreed to not-headline as was suggested to me a while back, yep.

[gluther]

So how do you think all the seemingly credible Radiohead info fits into all of this, Neil?

[knivesout]

Balls, was literally this morning walking to my lecture in the sun thinking how great it's gonna be to see Radiohead on the pyramid

New supergroup - Adele backed by Muse

Except nothing like that happened.

She spoke of three British bands headlining, and while Adele doesn't class as a band, the catch-all is much more normally "bands" than it is "acts".

That loaded article does suggest from its wording that the claim is made from what was said a while ago, but that doesn't make it necessarily out of date.

[sloseph]

is it too late to pay someone to hoy Matt Bellamy off a stage?

[PapaBentley]

Is it enough to make Adele TBC?

Just as it had started to look promising. Damnation.

[Woffy]

OHFERFUCKSSAKE!!!

 

Adele. She fucking ruins everything. Even her own already shit dongs.

[Mezhyp1]

It's going to be such a sweat if Adele is announced waiting to see if Radiohead are going to play
