This one's still up if anyone wants to turn £11 into £15 with a bet on Kendrick:

Shows how good of an indicator odds are, having Coldplay and Fleetwood Mac are both in there!

Taylor Swift - 0% because I’m not a 12 year old girl.

I’ve been playing the Glasto spotify playlist at work. So far the only times I’ve been asked to skip the track is when a track by Kendrick, Beans and Toast or Mik Artistik has come on.

If they don't like Sweet Leaf then you clearly work with the soulless and the damned

Now that the headliners have all been confirmed, think the chances of me going to see them differ.

Paul McCartney - 100% never seen him before and don’t think I could pass the opportunity to see a Beatle.

Kenny - 50% I’m a fan and would want to see him but depends on who else who I would be going with would want to go and who else is playing at the same time.

Taylor Swift - 0% because I’m not a 12 year old girl.

Sweet Leaf isn’t on the playlist. @Brave Sir Robin I think this needs addressing.

I had this very discussion with BSR last year as I recall

I was at one of his gigs last year and the gf insisted we left before the end which means we missed it. 
 

She is no longer my gf. 

[Amy Lawn]

Speaking of Mik, the strap on my watch went this morning. £13, two years. Horrific ratio.

Did you get it from the market though?

I wouldn't necessarily say it's grounds for separation on its own, but it is most certainly not going to help any relationship. Lunacy.

As endorsed by Iggy Pop

 

 

[strummer77]

Macca - 100% - the last "must see" I have left. Delighted with the booking.

The other two? Think they are both great picsand would definitely go to either. However hard to put a number on either of them because it ill be clash central. Great great choices though.

Last evidence I could find of a show of his, he didn't play it. A video of a festival performance on his website I believe.

It's been on every one of these playlists, thought people might enjoy a change! But fine, I guess I'll stick it on there again (especially after the Iggy Pop endorsement).

And I think @stuartbert two hats raised the very same point the year before...

Macca - 100%, he's been on my list for years so it'll be good to finally tick him off. 

Kendrick - 50%, depends on who he's up against more than anything

Swifty - 75% almost certainly unless she's up against one of my top tier favourites 

[robillustrates]

To be honest, three headliners who are undeniably headline level, they suit different audiences, two modern, one legend. I think it's a good mixture on the booking front.

[TheWaters]

100% there for Kendrick, one of my favourite artists of all time and would love to see him again.

Macca 50%, deffo have to see at least a few songs to say I've seen him. Almost definitely won't have another chance to, but not a priority to watch him.

Swift 0%. Absolutely not my thing at all. I've tried a few times to get into her but I really can't. I will definitely be elsewhere.

Overall a very strong trio of headliners from a general point of view though.

He played it in 2017 and 2019. I was there.

It's OK. You've won (again!), it's on there.

Booked in 2013 and pulled out. Highly doubt he will come back as it’s probably soured his relationship with the festival.

I reckon after West Holts managed to get Bobby W stepping in, they’ll have been glad Abel pulled out.

Unlikely that he’d play and I’m not that keen on his later stuff but I watched his set at Coachella and there was some really good parts. House of Balloons was immense and would sound amazing on the Pyramid’s system.

I'm surprised Kendrick is a given with no new music incoming and no tour dates. Post Malone hits europe for dates in June and is in Denmark on the 25th. Male, never played, new album out, bigger than Kendrick. 

Post who ? 

[ticketboy69]

Macca 100%

Taylor 100%

Kendrick 10%

I am really hoping that the American Woman who has never played Glastonbury isn't Madonna. Taylor would be a great result for us and Macca is Macca!

[Garrett_Salas]

really don't think post malone is in the mix. whilst it's clearly started to embrace hip-hop, I still think there's a much higher bar for a hip-hop artist to get a big slot at glastonbury. plus I think there'd be a bit of a backlash for choosing a white guy with not a whole lot of respect within the genre to headline.
