the new Springsteen rumour...can Neil (or anyone) give us some background to where this came up? I see that it seems it might be an Isle of Wight vs. Glastonbury thing, one or the other...

It would be marvelous to have the Boss at Glastonbury, Sunday night to close things out, but I just don't want to get needlessly excited about it. It could make sense in that having a new record out so quickly (Jan, 09) and touring again might mean he would want to try to do something different when he hits the UK in the Summer, rather than the same old stadiums (although he hasn't played Wembley since '88) . Would be gutted if he did IOW instead of Glastonbury. Would be gutted if we find out soon that there is no substance to the rumour though. No mention of it at all on www.backstreets.com, and they were quick to refute the Springsteen Glasto rumours from a few years back.

but, if true, this could be an incredible Glastonbury as far as headliners go....

Fri - Blur

Sat - Radiohead

Sun - Springsteen and the E Street Band (preceded by 'special guests' Neil Young)

Blur will be the Sunday headliner providing that they all stay as bessie mates again for a while longer, but that they'll be no Radiohead.

Word reaches eFestivals from one of our regular very good sources that Bruce is almost definitely the Saturday headliner.

Also, that Blur will be the Sunday headliner providing that they all stay as bessie mates again for a while longer, but that they'll be no Radiohead.

More info if/when we have it. :P
