As I say every few weeks: update please! Is it still:

 

Muse Vs LCD

Adele Vs New Order

Bring me the Horizon

With Foals subbing one day?

Also, when do we usually get an announcement?

Ta!

This is still the same and it seems Foals are subbing Friday as they are playing elsewhere on Sunday.

Even if they don't have any new material, they'd still be a better 'get' than re-booking Coldplay or Muse.

I'd take practically anyone over that lot. It just doesn't seem to be the way Glastonbury likes to do things. When they've booked 'reunion' acts before, eg Blur, The Verve, it's been on the first leg of their tours, when the hype is massive. I can't see them wanting to get the Roses at this stage, when they (presumably) could have done so in 2013, 2014, 2015...

hmmmm... Stone Roses up against New Order on the Other?

Is there some substance to it 

Or just it's as ridiculous as it sounds 

[chazwwe]

I really don't like The Rosses. I missed out on the hype when they were out and never got into them since, the reunion buzz did nothing either. 

I wonder if the same people that really want Radiohead/Stone Roses are the same people complaining about Muse/Coldplay and wishing for 'new' headliners.

Technically stone roses would be a new headliner

Until Cressa is invited to re-join I consider these pretenders to be The Stone Roses in name only.

[The Placid Casual]

Any news on album number 3 Neil?

not that i've heard tho we don't necessarily get PRs about new product (we do get some, but we're more about the live stuff).

I'm thinking either that one of those supposed stage headliners has got to be wrong, or the bookers are having a laugh.

You know what my info is, tho it's always possible that it's wrong ... then again, other parts of the Roses suggestion could also be wrong. Make up your own mind.

Is this pointing to NO into Stone Roses or Stone Roses on Pyramid and NO on Other at the same time?

it's me saying that the bookers have gone insane if they've put the Roses up against New Order.

[Wooderson]

Paltry few watching New Order that night one would think.

Seriously doubt GFL have Muse/Roses/Coldplay however, irrespective of what Reni told me.

I'm thinking that ioW has the Roses and they're being held back from announcing them cos tix are still available for all Manc shows. I could be wrong, that's only a guess.

But I've got nothing at all to put them in the frame for Glasto, and every bit of info I've had that I've thought would come in good so far this year has done ... and I still think Adele will.

No way The Roses are playing the Other.

No way The Roses management are stupid enough to have Ian Brown singing a Pyramid headline set live on the Beeb.

Surely the only way it could happen is up NO are 'heading' but play 2nd from top meaning you can see the end and go to the Pyramid after.

Also I'm fairly sure The Stone Roses only have 3rd/4th tier tickets left for the opening Wednesday, the other sold out easily from what I remember.

I would still watch New Order if they were up against the Roses. Would split our group though definitely.

There is absolutely no chance of that happening, New Order's crowd would be very small. Too much on an unnecessary clash.

I don't even want to contemplate such things without a ticket, but if I get lucky then I would more than welcome Roses to headline the Saturday with New Order doing the Friday or Sunday (if there's any chance your source has their NO day info wrong).

[mattiloy]

A colleague of mine saw Adele last week on her tour and said that Adele told the crowd she wasn't doing Glastonbury.

I realise that this means little as it could easily be a red herring but still... Its hope.
