Never ones to lightly jump on the rumour mill, the NME announced that The Killers, Bruce Springsteen and Kylie were the names topping the bill of Glastonbury 2007. The announcement spread onto some other prematurely excited websites until Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis pulled the plug on the whole charade, during a discussion with the BBC News website.
Following NMEs previous announcement that Bruce Springsteen was being lined up to close the Saturday evening of the festival, the BBC reported that Michael Eavis told them he was surprised to see newspaper claims that Springsteen was in line to play the event.
The report went on to say that Eavis was '"really assured by the erroneous reporting because it meant nobody had worked out who the headliners would be.'
So in a surprise turn of events that has shocked us at eFestivals to our very core (
), NME and their exclusive guesses have once again been proven wrong.If you want to have a go at making up Glastonbury rumours, or you want to see what likeminded individuals are guessing at, or perhaps you work for a clueless music publication, then you may want to join in the Glasto-Guessing-Game on our forums here.
