They really are big enough mate. I think you’re underestimating their pull to the younger Glastonbury crowds.

If stormzy absolutely packed the pyramid field off one album the 1975 will likely do the same

Not doubting their size, still don't think they should headline yet... let alone the 50th anniversary of Glasto.

The 1975 do not deserve to headline Glastonbury either yet. It's bad enough they are headlining Reading.

You sound totally unbiased ?

They're defo big enough, even more so as they'll have another album out by then.

There is a difference between being unbiased and hotshotting a band to the top of a lineup. .

They will have headline Reading and Leeds, Latitude, Parklife and Glasgow Green by next year, on top of three massive hit albums and a pair of sold out arena tours. What more can they do?

[robillustrates]

You can say the same/similar for Foals I believe and they haven't headlined yet either.

1975 are bigger than Foals. By quite a bit. If Foals are in the picture then 1975 should be too.

For a layman who doesn't check the charts, headline slots or amount of Spotify plays, the1975 and Foals seem almost identical in size. Both would be a good fit for Fri night

With foals playing before them.

[Alex DeLarge]

1975 are massive, I don't enjoy them personally but anyone that can't see they've earned that slot is deluding themselves.

I’d also consider them front runners for the Friday slot

Yeah of all "new bands ready to be given their chance" they are probably the most deserving tbf.

Madonna ft Chris Martin

The 1975 ft Chris Martin

Paul McCartney & Chris Martin duet 

[Alex DeLarge]

Who knew the Chris Martin supergroup would include the whole lineup? 

[jj200]

I have a feeling that Chris Martin will be at glasto next year in some kind of form.

Perhaps, but they packed out the Park, and if Stormzy can carry it off on one album and a Chris Martin appearance, I'm sure Foals could do the Pyramid proud as well

[MEGATRONICMEATWAGON]

Pretty sure Chris just bought a flat behind the cowshed 

[a6l6e6x]

Mac

Blur

Elton John

 

Would be the dream and I'd inevitably miss out on tix again

[robillustrates]

I hope we get Fleetwood Mac and McCartney on the Saturday and Sunday for sure.

Let Friday be for the up and comer/first timer.

[MJMilz14]

Fri

Foals, Royal Blood, Billie Eilish

Sat

Blur, Faithless, Janelle Monae

Sunday

Fleetwood Mac, The 1975, Elton John

These are my likely but less obvious contenders for across the board for all days.

Jay Z: He’s playing Woodstock 50 in August, Doubt he’d pass up the opportunity to play Glastonbury 50 too.

Eminem with surprise Guests: (50 Cent, Royce Da 5’9 or even more of a push Dr Dre) Marshall Mathers LP 20th Anniversary Tour  

Stevie Wonder is coming over here to play 3 Shows in London next month...Perfect time to be asked if he’d like to sign the Glastonbury Contract. I’m sure he’ll be asked.

Metallica: They’re likely in europe at that time and if they do download again I’ll be surprised. 

Aerosmith

Slaves

Skepta w Boy Better Know

Daft Punk:They’ve been heavily teasing the Alive Tour. 

Jorja Smith might get an earlier pyramid slot next year.

Pharrell Williams 

Childish Gambino

A Maxim Reality or unlikely but possible a Liam Howlett DJ Set at one of the smaller stages.

Nine Inch Nails

Anderson.Paak and The Free Nationals

I'm telling you  - it's Blur, Taylor and FM. Lock it down now.

Woodstock 50 isnt going to happen if you havent been reading up. The organizers are still attempting to secure a new venue site and have not even discussed that or anything else with any artists that were booked. Tickets have not even gone on sale.

[Chinaski_]

Have Blur said they're coming back next year?

I can't see Foals headlining Glastonbury. Are they really that big? 

 Isnt that the same question asked of Stormzy when he was announced? Theyve got to take the leap or else you’ll never find out if theyre worthy.

Stormzy is a lot more well known than them though. I think The 1975 are more likely to get the new headliner boost.
