[FloorFiller]

Would’ve been more arsed a couple of years ago but still, this would be all kinds of fun as long as she remembers to include the hits.

Matty out here rewriting history

Crap you knew what I meant ??

I remember 2009 me thinking Glastonbury was for old fogies and Q magazine readers, that little scamp's tiny mind would've been blown by the knowledge he'd be down there watching his faves Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift a decade later.

and from the other side....

This time last year The Cure announced a run of Euro dates. Glastonbury was announced in April.

 

True - and they announced Ed last as well didn't they, and he was by far the biggest name of those headliners.

I always tend to think they want to get the biggest name announced ASAP, but maybe there's more merit to holding them off until the Spring.

Ticks all the boxes , new headliner and female .

Emily would have definitely went after a female headliner this year

I would still fall down on the side of her not being there and CG badgering randos.

Can't badger someone who's surrounded by bouncers ?

That just about sums it up for me!

[nikkic]

Wow that is big big news. 

Not even a massive fan but I’d be there with bells on.

Now gimme something to make the Kendrick dream possible.

Chances of Taylor Swift popping up on the festival seem way higher now based on her press release and tour announcement today.

Gutted I didn't take 5/1 a few weeks ago.

The 1975 can have the friday, though they compliment Swift well who I presume is a better fit for Sunday from the look of it.

They headlined the Other Stage in 2008 and its still described in parts as "the day the music died".

There were cows committing suicide when they heard the band being introduced.. 

 

They're a better choice than Taylor Swift.

 

I mean how desperate can you get to be booking up washed up pop stars with no talent?

It's not anyway, it's no bigger booking than Adele and The Stones are the biggest booking Glastonbury will make for a long time given there isn't anyone who comes bigger, even FM I think are only on the same level as that.

[coxy99]

1975 Friday, Swift Saturday, FM on the Sunday...sign me up 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Folk getting riled up by T-Swizzle needn't worry. The festival are sure to balance her out by putting The Stereophonics or The Courteeners on the Other Stage.
