Might see if I can put together a spell to make Pulp reunite as a Saturday night one off. Can't make any promises like but I'll do my best.

I am all over this suggestion.

They were dreadful (fact).

A pub band.

Insulting to pub bands if you ask me, at least some of them have at least half the band playing in time with each other!

If there is to be a reunion, REM is the one I would be most interested in. PULP on the Park '11 was amazing though.

I reckon a Coldplay, Muse, Mumford supergroup will be formed for the 50th

How high up do we think Courteeners will be this year?

Is there any reason to think they'll be coming back?

The prefix 'super' being stretched to its limits there.

New album coming.

Perpetually touring, although I can’t see them improving on subbing the other stage. Unless they get handed third down Pyramid, which I think they’re too big for but not big enough to sub.

Exactly this, also I was not there last year but set was way too short. They are ready for Pyramid now.

But they already played this year. Can't see them returning so soon (fingers crossed)

Banjos, lasers and flashing wristbands, how good is that.

I'm thinking of changing my tagline.

[swelsbyuk]

I quite like The Courteeners but caught them last year at Rock City and found Liam Fray to be as beige a frontman as I've ever witnessed.

[Gilgamesh69]

Can someone please give me an inkling of hope that Depeche Mode will play? I'd much rather have them over Fleetwood Mac

That sounds pretty good tbh

Okay - Depeche mode will play

 

Please do not read below this line:

Depeche mode probably won't play

A lot of people I've spoken to about the festival in person have suggested The Rolling Stones to play. Now, I know that it's just people fantasy booking for the 50th, but what are the chances they would ever actually play again? Would it take away from the 2013 performance?

Also, there were rumours earlier in the year of double headliners. Is there any weight to this? I mean, it seems like they are more aware than ever before how important the festival is this year, and at this point I would be disappointed if we don't get the best year in the history of the festival. I feel like I am getting my hopes up way too much.

no and no. you're right that you're getting your hopes up, though.

Stones are probably touring next year.... Japan, Down Under, and so on.

European shows may or may not happen.

Good, I needed a reality check. The excitement of getting a ticket doesn't wear off for a while, and sometimes I get a little carried away! Though if The 1975 headline getting a ticket will all of a sudden become a disappointment ???

Loved 2013, would love to see The Stones again, but it's just going to be the same really if they come back. Leave it alone.

I’ve no idea where they’ll pitch their tent?
