You can’t have picked McCartney and Elton as your top two eight months before they get wheeled out on stage... the back-up plan would be trickier that the original.. you would have to give BUPA their own field for starters..

it would be like inviting Prince Phillip to be guest of honour at your retirement party... nice idea, but I’m only 59...

Ac/dc as the back up then,I'll take that,although either those 2 would would smash it regardless of needing to be wheeled out or not

I know that lad from my time at uni in Southampton and putting on gigs with my mate and I think I can safely say he knows nothing so I wouldn’t put any faith in it 

that's my general view after having had a google on him ... and yet he's from the iow, and giddings is known to talk about things, so i don't think its impossible he got something thru the grapevine.

I was discussing this with my friend who also knows him and agreed he could potentially know something about IOW but I’d take it with a pinch of salt because as you’ve probably seen he’s hardly pulling in big names as a promoter and I’d say it’s more of a guessing game than an ITK

What are the chances of Dylan deciding to do a couple of big shows where he decides to play the hits in a way that people actually want to hear? Only way I can see IOW and Hyde Park happening, really.

He could do his normal show at Hyde Park. It’s just a gig innit. IOW would probably be a poor fit, yeah.

Forgot that those two have shared in the past, as I only mentioned that as it contradicts this IOW fella’s info. Still don’t think he’s on the money like.

@Brave Sir Robin has heard Dylan’s Hyde Park bound also.

edit: or that he’s ‘in the frame’. Didn’t mean to misquote.

Yes I have, for BST. Nothing definite though.

Slim, he’s fairly set in his ways. But heck, he’s Bob Dylan, he’s earned the right to do whatever the hell he wants! In fairness to him he always plays at least half a dozen biggies, in a nice if somewhat smooth manner.

With AM, whether that 'iconic festival' comment was about a festival in this country or overseas.. surely they have to headline at least one UK festival in the summer? I'd be shocked if not, R+L or IOW 

Not necessarily, they might rather just play their own gigs. To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't bother playing anywhere in Europe next summer. I certainly don't see them at IOW, they've never bothered headlining there before, I'm not sure why they would start now when they can pretty much choose to play wherever they want.

Throwing my hat into the ring, The cure,Macca and Elton. Although I'm really hoping I'm completely wrong and 1 of them turns out to be ac/dc (before anyone starts I know it's a massive long shot but a guy can dream)

Elton's in Switzerland over Glastonbury weekend so won't happen.

There is no evidence to suggest it thus meaning there's as much chance as Kendrick in reality.

Gaga's scheduled to play live next summer and was rumoured to show up a couple of years back.  On top of that she's starring in a movie filmed at the festival with Bradley Cooper, who's there every year and has also talked about playing next year.

Kendrick has just finished up all of his current touring plans.

True however nothing booked for the Friday

Looking at the dates of his tour, he's not playing 2 different venues on 2 consecutive nights at any point (as far as I can see).  Add to that his latter day issues with his voice and I would put him in the 'extremely unlikely' category for this year.  I'd be willing to place huge money on him headlining next year though.  His farewell tour runs through until at least October 2020

Exactly what I was just about to say. Gaga also has a gap at the end of June from her Vegas residency.
