after the backlash of Kanye i doubt they'll be going to yet another controversial rapper to headline any time soon

Tbh Eminem is safe. Lonsdale would lap it up. The only real outrage would be afterwards when he's mimed for ninety minutes. Fortunately he demands way too much money.

It's a shame it would never happen because even for the backing tracks used it would still be 100% better.

I'm just going to throw Eminem in the mix and see what happens

What's happened is that you've ruined the mix.

Moby has just made a surprise comeback. He headlined before. Perhaps we may see him on the lineup? 

[dentalplan]

I didn't know he'd gone away.

I was going to point out the inherent ridiculousness of this post.... but ah wait it's just Gazza, Gazzaing again as he does.

Is an anti-Foo Fighters stance official Labour Party policy? They've got my vote if so.

That's why I didn't tell them any of my social media details. They might decide that Radiohead are a Trots band.

Well actually it's just an opinion as at least you won't get a stupid rant. His accepting that his Glastonbury show was shit is the best thing he's ever said.....imo.

Everyone? Lots of people are w*nkers.

Might sort some of them out

Guys can someone please give me some hope that Ed Sheeran will not be headlining next year. 

 

Just some sort of reassurance, just to give me that moment of comfort before i have to accept it x

[dentalplan]

Ed Sheeran will NOT be headlining every stage.

Tbf I did see Philip Selway sitting on the floor of the 9.20 to Oxford. I didn't film him though.

Oasis are dead realistically. Noel has zero interest in it and Liam can't sing the songs anymore. Plus they were diabolical in 2005 so I seriously doubt glasto would book them again.

What are the chances of the following ?

Artic Monkeys 

Ed Sheeran 

Daft Punk 

 

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

If you're in the mood for some sweet, sweet Ed Sheeran then 2017 might just be you lucky year.

Based on what I hear on this forum

Arctic Monkeys - Possible, but only an outside chance.

Ed Sheeran - Highly likely

Daft Punk - Highly Unlikely

I'm in the mood for some on Saturday so my ticket gets paid for by Paddy Power :-)

Are there any sites still taking bets? Can't find any

I don't think AM will be ready until 2018 onwards. Rumours they are heading into the studio before the end of the year but there's no rush. 

 

Turner doesn't really do 'breaks' so I'd expect something back end of next year maybe. 

[kalifire]

As things stand - and correct me if I'm wrong - this is the current state of play:

Ed Sheeran - highly likely

Radiohead - likely

I don't think there's a third contender yet, and all bets are off for the Legend.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Actually, the Legend seems almost certain to be either Diana Ross or Barry Gibb.

i think the ship might have sailed on that one. you'd think if both he and the festival were interested it would've happened by now. maybe offers from elsewhere were better or he thought he should be headlining rather than subbing

just as an aside, the Electric Picnic timings are out and Noelly-G is subbing LCD Soundsystem.
