The Who on the Pyramid stage (or any other stage) at the greatest live event on the planet? Can it really get any better than that? I think not. This year is going to be one to remember for a very long time indeed. If the rest of the bill comes anywhere near this standard it will be just great

Come on guys no need for this pessimistic attitude. Look on the bright side - at least Razorlight aren't playing.

Arctic Monkeeys after Kasabian, some kind of funkin joke !?! If this turns out to be the actual line up for the pyramid stage, hope to god the other stages aren't quite as ballsd up!! Saw the Monkeys at Oxegen last year and they were no way near headline quality even for a festival of that stature let alone Glastonbury

"Moby - Again. Was popular that year because of the number of adverts that had his music on."

So his 10 years of recording and touring, building up a loyal fanbase didn't attract the (musically knowledgeable) glastonbury crowd?

The fact is Moby deserved his headline spot as he had the experience, some of the

"1 album" bands simply can't appeal to the bulk of the glasto audience. I personally don't mind who headlines as I have varied tastes and can always find something worth watching but the pyramid headline should have a musical CV of some sort IMHO.

Moby supported Robbie on one of his Knebworth dates and I know some people who went who actually think Moby was better.

he puts in 100% effort, has a great sound and a fantastic lights and lasers show to match.

I remember the lasers in 2003 when they made a blanket over the whole sky, it was drizzling at the time and the rain drops passing through the laser made them light up like a spark, the whole sky looked like glitter! was amazing!

Tommy, do you mean his entire Glastonbury set is on the 18 DVD?!

Grrr Glastonbury just not about music!!!!

If you don't like the headline's so far!, it's simple don't go. FFS go to V or Reading where the only thing is music. Glastonbury festival on the other hand is so much more. Music, Arts, Fire Performance's, Craft's, Comedy, etc...

Really I think you no idea what Glasto is about and what it has to offer. Just go and experience it, then if you don't like it, then complain about it, or if you have been before then i don't think you understood what the festival is about!!!! in my opinion.

But we all see things has they are...

    • I am very possibly wrong about this but I do think that the pitch you get allocated appears to be related to your time of arrival, (i.e. you get the next one available) rather than the price you paid for a small, medium or large pitch.  They all appear to be the same size to me.

    • Liddle: "Drop a small nuclear bomb on Glastonbury to immediately remove from our country almost everybody who is hugely annoying.”   Farage: Free speech!    Polanski: accepts a collaboration on 20 innocuous looking set of photos on instagram but doesn't notice that one that says 'making plans for Nigel' with a guillotine image.   Farage: I expect the MET police to arrest him.
    • I take my lad to the local non-league club - Royston Town - not he's 13, he goes there with his mates and he plays in their youth team.  Not many people there - lucky if they hit 800, but lovely supporting the town team.  I've took him to some league clubs too - Cambridge and Stevenage are great to visit and not crazy prices - his first one was Cambridge v Sunderland (I'm a mackem) when they were in league 1, so a great experience for him.  The England matches aren't too bad value either at Wembley - it's just the parking that stings you. Problem is, he's a City fan, so at some point have to bite the bullet and get him up to the Ethiad. Have done the tour, but he'd love a proper game....my wallet, less so!
    • Said it before, but if Annie Lennox is available next year, then it would be an absolute crime to instead book anyone else. She's rare and legendary enough that you drop all other plans.
