Yeah I'd go for that. 

I just don't know where for the life of me they've pulled Kasabian out from and I'm terrified it's because she told them off the record that they were one of the two

It will have come from the fact that NME readers fucking love Kasabian so they just dropped their name in there...

When I find myself in times of trouble, one name always comes to me...

Don't really care for the Foos anymore. Maybe they can finally get Fleetwood Mac to do it, no? 

Yeah possibly. I mean, they've been deep in negotiations with Glastonbury in recent years IIRC and obviously IOW won't steal them away again this time so maybe they'll waive the big bucks and just agree to play.

I know some people here are quite negative about the idea of Fleetwood Mac headlining, but I'd be very happy with that as a Sunday headliner. Radiohead, Sheeran, Mac would be a pretty great set.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Re. Fleetwod Mac

I suspect that would only be as part of a larger tour, and I dunno if one is forthcoming.   I suspect it's too early - I think they're still recording

"We’re quite far down the line. It’s looking so good. We’re certainly all there with all of our headliners across all stages.”

Them closing the Pyramid with Songbird as the last song before the fallow year would be a hell of a moment.

I actually like that the race is (to some extent) wide open now. Makes it profoundly more interesting!

[brettredmayne]

Really thought the roses were a sure thing, pretty gutted 

[Guy Incognito]

what about Kendrick Lamar as possible headliner....?

Wonder what @eFestivals thinks of this as Emily doesn't lie although maybe it's just carefully chosen words 

I think Emily must be telling the truth and my sources were wrong.

Surprised at that I've gotten say, tho I never had the confidence to mark them as a TBC.

[EamerRed]

Actually quite gutted at this 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pearl Jam are still rumoured for Europe next June, right?

[supreme]

I really thought ending the the Glasto before the fallow with Resurrection would of been a moment  

[alframsey]

Kings of Leon a possibility? I'm really struggling to think if other headliners but then I always do...

Oh god yes it would. Didn't think of this!

Can definitely see this being Sheeran on the Saturday and Foos on the Sunday now. Read somewhere that they played their first show since hiatus over the last few days with Sammy Hagar, Paul Stanley and others....so seems as though they are back in action. Having seen them twice before, they do put on an outrageously good show.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I remember when a hiatus actually meant a hiatus
