[podge52]

[podge52]

So what BIG American act has shows this summer in the UK that they will be trying to sell tickets for before Glasto announce them..............Thats what one must think of in trying to crack this............has Beyonce? Madonna?...............Dont be thinking Bruce thats basically a given.............its the second Sat headliner we are trying to get here..............

Im suprised Flaming lips would come to anyones mind when thinking of "Big American Act"

Bruce is from the USA isnt he?

[Wooderson]

We don't know about Bruce, he is still (officially) only a rumour. My guess is it's him

[Wooderson]

KISS!!!

[chuckley]

I think this is a good shout for a headliner on the Other (Along with Franz and Orbital) but is this who Eavis is on about? No tour dates for the UK as yet..............no tickets on sale...........

[chuckley]

id say Pink, Beyonce or Kanye....

Madonna would charge too much!

i pray both katy perry and beyonce arent on the bill.

[Wooderson]

...i pray both katy perry and beyonce arent on the bill.

[chuckley]

To put both of those in the same sentance beggars belief man. Beyonce is a whole lotta rosie. Womans got some serious serious skills.

Katy Perry? Agreed.

2 American headliners:

Neil Young

Bruce Springsteen

2 British Headliners:

Blur

Arctic Monkeys/Kaiser Chiefs/Franz Ferdinand/Radiohead?!?

Big American Act:

Could mean Neil Young or Bruce Springsteen but if doesn't mean a headliner then

Madonna/Kanye West

Could be Beyonce I suppose but I doubt it. And I don't think there is many other acts he would describe as big.

[micawber]

I think that it will be Toto, but I'm sure that Ivan might suggest some others.

[Mardy]

hehehe, you know what, I was on the way home from work last night and Eminem came on my Ipod while I was on the metro and I thought about him playing Glastonbury. Never going to happen though

[Okky]

Wouldn't it f**king amazing though.

[pedmills]

The Killers said they wouldn't play Glastonbury again until they were The Who's age.

[eFestivals]

The Killers said they wouldn't play Glastonbury again until they were The Who's age.

.... except that when The Killers are the age The Who were when they played Glasto no one will have a clue who Brandon Flowers or The Killers are.
