Who is headlining? Them on a low down stage or a particular act on the pyramid or other?

[reflekting]

When the Cure do get announced, do you think there is anything Cheese & Grain esque or Radiohead face on the ground paint type thing that they could do?

They're headlining the Pyramid. All other stages shut down for their set.

I think we're entitled to wild speculation on a random internet forum.

If it's concrete info you're after, look no further

Sadly, I really don't think they're that arsed.

When you haven’t had a decent announcement since December.....chapati man at glasto is the closest we’re gonna get anytime soon.....slow news day ??

Lads and ladies, just to put a slight spin on things but doesn't this happen every year. We're all sat ever so slightly despondent on the lacklustreness of the predicted headliners then BAM Glastonbury does something from leftfield (not the tent) and announces something unexpected or have I got rose tinted glasses?

I'm a dreamer. For me the dream is still alive. 

La la ooh la laa ga ga ooh la laaa

I so read that in a Livin' Joy way, the unexpected nature of which made it a great moment btw!

I'm in Gaga camp too, would make my year. 

[Mr.Tease]

Did russy manage to get a ticket this year? Haven't noticed him posting all year and have missed his opinions on the suggested headliners

[Amy Lawn]

It's still Gaga, if it were not so I would not have told you.

On the contrary I find that we're always dreaming pretty big in the lead up, usually knowing two out of three headliners but foolishly hoping the third will be Bowie/Prince/Fleetwood Mac/Stone Roses/Madonna but then in the few weeks leading up to the poster drop come to the realisation that it's actually gonna be Mumfords/Kasabian/Coldplay/Muse/Ed Sheeran.

The Killers seem significantly worse and even unbelievable than that lot because they're an act we often laugh about as being a fill-in headliner when they're announced for other festivals as they're seemingly never not at a UK festival, but from the sound of it that's exactly what they'll be doing for Glastonbury this year. We've had our hopes of Madonna, Fleetwood Mac etc for this year - it's time to come to terms with the reality that the festival, due to no real fault of their own, dropped the ball a bit this year.

Damn it, you're right. NOW I'm convinced by the Killers rumour

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'm not sure why people are so down on The Killers.  They'll provide a great drunken singalong for people who love a song performed by a slightly taller Kelly Jones.
