Just to throw this in again to see what you think,

The Killers have just been announced another festival date in the US on the 20th June and are doing Firefly on the 18th.

Surely they're likely to do more than 2 festival shows if they're bothering to come together away from their solo stuff?

I know Brandon Flowers has also just announced his solo shows and his Euro tour ends start of June so is unlikely to come back so soon to do festival shows and he hasn't been announced for any UK festivals at all. Maybe he is coming back with The Killers?

Hopefully not

Could never rule them out but it would be a depressingly safe, uninspiring announcement

This or Sheeran would be the worst. Shite, but shite my girlfriend would want to see.

Someone mentioned Red Hot Chilli Peppers before.

They haven't been rumored too much I don't think.

Do people think they might be a dark horse?

I think there is a rumour of some disagreement or unease between them and Michael from a long time ago but I've no idea how true this is.

Regardless, they haven't done much in the last 12 years to warrant that place now

Unless the next album see's them become as popular as they were almost 10 years ago, I doubt we'd see them at Glastonbury now, even if they are still big enough.

Taylor Swift

The Stone Roses

Prince

Madonna

Kylie

Take That

Flo (if Emily had a personality transplant and decided to lie (or she's bumped up to replace some purple shithead))

Are these all our realistic options right now?

It's a strange lot to be left with, because there's a negative you could put for almost every one them.

Emily telling porkies about Flo could be a possibility yeah...

I'd add ELO, Radiohead and The Eagles to that list.

But even then, it could be none of the above.

I'd be inclined to rule out Madonna, Kylie, Take That and Flo, purely going on what we know with your dates and info

Kanye West didn't real come from anywhere when he was first spoke of, so I don't see why at this point we should try and narrow it down to people who are our in tour

think Neil said last week that there was a chance that it could be Rihanna as well.

Haha, Eagles! I totally forgot about them! Massively rumoured last year if I remember correctly! Any reason they are any more doubtful than anyone else this year?

Not sure if there's been anything to rule them out, but their tour dates look vaguely appropriate.

The other stage has the least atmosphere on anywhere in the site, it's just a huge expanse of slightly dodgy-smelling grimness. The wind whistles acorss it and it feels like the end of civilisation. The relief when you get to the Glade, or up onto the railway line is palpable. On this occasion, and this occasion only, Richey Manic may have had a point.

Wo! i love The Other Stage when it's slightly raining, and i'm in front of the sound stage. one of the few stages with a continuous good view of the act that are playing. Sound is terrible when you're far back, but you probably aren't that interested in whoever is playing if you're that far back anyway.

Foals ?

Noticed they've actually been on the rumours page as a pyramid act, can't remember if they've been ruled out here before however..

would live up to the comment about Glasto wanting to bump up smaller acts also?

could se them in a sub slot but I dont think they are quite headline material yet..
