Friday night on eFests and people are discussing Pink Floyd headlining…

It's been that kind of week

[whitehorses]

Ok I’m sold. Which night are the Floyd on?

The triumphant last scene of the sequel to Anvil: The Story of Anvil - them headlining the pyramid

[Poorside.2]

The anvil to headline, with a guest appearance by the toaster  joined by all the hammers that were used for the finale.

Bit of a curveball, but what about Miley Cyrus? She's been quite active recently, didn't tour her last album, has somewhat of a relationship with the festival and may well have more material coming this year.

I personally think that would be brilliant, especially after last time

Could definitely see her pretty high but I'd be surprised if she was headlining? She seems to be in between a sub and a headliner in the USA and I'd imagine she's bigger over there than in the UK. She'd be a great show though

Miley Cyrus at Glastonbury? 

It's a rock concert, not the bleedin' splish-splash show.

Surely the biggest?

Would be interesting to see the reaction to a Smiths headline reunion...

She was the biggest surprise of 2019 because I don't really follow her and was expecting the Hannah Montana show. 

It was not, I was stood there wondering how on earth the beeb were going to be able to show any of her "tea time" set through all the swearing. 

Great guests with Billy Ray and Lil Naz x and a really good back to black cover.

[Matt42]

I’d love her back at some point. Not as a headliner but is anyone going to care if she subbed or played third down again? Or headlined the other stage if they needed an other headliner?

[K2SO]

I personally think she is big enough headline, especially on a year like this when it could be slim pickings. She'd be a very odd booking as a headliner though.

She feels almost too big to take anything lower than headline or some sort of special slot like last time, but also seems like an odd choice to pull in as a headliner... Almost like getting Ariana Grande or One Direction in to do it. No doubt they're massive but it would just feel strange to see someone like that take that slot.

[Freddyflintstonree]

I don't have anything to add other than Coldplay aren't going to play this year.

Unless they are really desperate, in which case Coldplay would probably be quite likely for this year.

Okay yeah, I really had nothing to add. Carry on.

We don’t know what’s in those contracts Neil mentioned, but I’d be amazed if they didn’t include a clause for cancellation in the event of variables like a new variant of a virus getting out of control and causing serious health risks or logistics issues.

Even if signed, there must be plans in place for a worse case scenario. Oh to be a fly on the Worthy wall.

They could do worse for a sub headliner. I don't think she would get headliner here. She would be very much sunset party time fun.

Brass Against are self-confirmed.

Well if Stormzy and Miley come back I want The Cure and The Killers.

No need to take the piss.

What if Miley is too big for Glastonbury?

I don’t think anyone else would disagree that the cure should come back at some point before they pack it in for good.

[CaledonianGonzo]

The entirety of the 2019 line up are friends of the festival and available with nothing to rule them out. 

Merits at least a Strong Rumour.

Possibly with the exception of Ms. Lauryn Hill.

I a disagree, think sometimes a set can be a perfect legacy to leave. Returning after so many years, with a slightly fractious relationship and unfinished business, to put in an all time great performance. Nothings going to top that.
