Thanks - looks like a decent hit rate on the number of bands but not necessarily the stages...

Still hopeful of a surprise headliner not from the Florence, Foo Fighters, AC/DC, Prince stock. Extremely optimistically that it's Radiohead...

I'll be pretty shocked if the Foo Fighters are not one of the headliners.

The other 2 spots I'd say are "up for grabs"

I think it will be 2 of Elton John, Florence, ACDC or Noel Gallagher.

I'd guess at Elton and Florence headlining with Gallagher subbing the Foo Fighters.

I'd think anyone other than those would now be a wild card. Which at a guess would be Ed Shitran

I can't see that. Sadly I think Michael's voice is past it. If it wasn't - after bowie, I'd say REM would be my choice to headline as a fantasy headliner (even though I've seen them twice)

Strongly agree they are the idyllic reunion headliner, 2008 TITP, probably the best TITP in my opinion, was truly wonderful

Hmm I'd say Pyramid's way too strong and Bjork is much bigger than No Doubt. Don't think No Doubt have much presence over here at all compared to their stardom in the US but I might be wrong. Would be a fine lineup that though.

Pyramid: Foo Fighters / The National / Royal Blood

Other Stage: Ben Howard / The Maccabees / Ride

John Peel: Underworld / Run The Jewels

I'd swap Royal Blood and Sam Smith around because they make more sense in each other's slots. I think the Sunday John Peel might be a problem as Jamie T would pack it out with those as the other options and I recall hearing Spiritualized got pissed off last time they played that slot as they thought they were headlining but weren't or something? That Saturday would be a bit unbalanced headliner-wise but overall I'd really like that lineup.
