[Michaels denim shorts]

Who would you like to see

[calumhandy1]

i remember few weeks back Noel Gallagher did an interview with nme he mentioned that he had a few acoustic gigs coming up at end of the year so maybe he could do it if he's announced for the pyramid

Maybe Johnny marr or Liam fray as well!

Swear I'm not from Manchester

One thing that can be guaranteed is it'll definitely be none of them, thankfully

[calumhandy1]

Don't see why not maybe Noel is a bit of a push but Liam fray is a big possibility

All you need to do is have a look at previous line ups, look at the acoustic stage in each of them, and you'll figure out why Liam Fray won't be headlining the acoustic stage this year

Joan Armatrading

Ray Davies

Bellowhead

Great choices. Bellowhead splitting up though, perhaps a final gig?

[calumhandy1]

Make big did it in 2014 same year he subbed R&L Wilkins Johnson last year and Paul Heston and Jackie albot played as well so pretty sure Liam fray could fit somewhere on that stage especially with how well courteeners went down last year

Would love to see Richard Hawley do an acoustic set

Well he won't be headlining it if he did, which is probably what was meant. I doubt Liam Fray doing acoustic Courteeners songs would be on the stage bookers' lists at all but I guess we'd have to wait and see.

He had a rant about the festival being corporate and shit a couple of years back so it;s unlikely.

[Little Andy]

Damien Rice

[Badlands]

Teenage Fanclub.

When was the last time they played?

Yep exactly, whether he'll play or not I don't know, I doubt it personally but it's not impossible, but he most definitely won't headline

[addicted2noise]

Christy Moore or maybe Glen Hansard again as he has a new album out.  

[Gnomicide]

Counting Crows.

Though they'd be there this year but were in Europe over the weekend.

[Scotdy]

Damien Rice

I think it will be Damien Rice one night.

[tevaburger]

The Pretenders, if that rumour is true...after all, these days they're more or less a Chrissie Hynde project although i think Martin Chambers is back in the fray again?

 

Joe Jackson - never understood why he's never done Glasto, or perhaps I've missed that he has? he has a record out now and a tour into the fall. don't know how much lasting power that will have to June, but he'd be a nice alternative on the Adele night

 

Guy Garvey more likely for the Park?

[scotth541]

I reckon Squeeze might headline Acoustic.

[Hugh Jass]

Maybe not headline but I'd like to see Texas make up for this year's disappointment, and to see the Bootkeg Beatles play for more than 20 minutes.

I've been pleading on here for years for Mr Jackson but without any luck.

 

Ps He has never played Glastonbury and it's about time he did

[Neville Street]

Joe Jackson would be great

[matt2007]

I reckon Squeeze might headline Acoustic.

Yes please
