Well this is exciting news. Got to think they're very likely with those dates. 

Someone get the "it's happening!" gif out.

I think they have a new album out next year so I hope they do turn up. Their 2010 Other Stage headline slot is up there in my fave Glastonbury moments. 

agreed - that was a brilliant show.

until my feet started aching so bad i had to hobble off to find a seat... which ended up being a little bench over the door in the piano bar which led on to another of those Glastonbury moments...

They would be great! Also with their little appearance during The Killers this year...It's gonna happen! 

[Gilgamesh69]

Can we get Tears for Fears and Duran Duran to play as well? Long overdue

Massive soft spot for the PSB. The highlight of my debut Glastonbury in 2010.

Fingers crossed. 

Absolutely loved them in 2010

[eastynh]

Sign me up. Absolutely love PSB. For some strange reason (well I have been saving up to watch Depeche or NO), I have never got to see them.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Feel like they may be a contender....

Is it too early for the "Acts touring around Glastonbury 2020" thread?

Good news: Presale is already live on O2 Priority.

Bad news: The O2 gig is all seated

Bad news 2: Price range is £48-£115

I'm out.

If youl;re browsing on O2 prioity could you see if there are any standing tickets for editors in manchester for 29 Feb 2020 please. I had a fan presale code, and got tickets in my basket this morning  but bl00dy ticketmaster made me reset my password and I got kicked out and now only seated left. If there are standing I'll search my friends for an O2 code as I can;t have one as not in the UK so don;t have an O2 sim card :-( thanks a lot. If not its everything crossed for normal sale on Friday morning

Just looked, there are standing tickets available.

Think they'll play but there has to be bigger/better shouts for the legends slot, surely?

Not sure about “better”.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Where would PSB play? West Holts?

[gmb1992]

They'd be great for West Holts! I'm so excited for this!

I like em but you should've seen them do Bestival two years ago. Wasn't good.

I'm going balls out for legend.

[Zoo Music Girl]

They were amazing both times I've seen them (Glastonbury and Hammersmith) and they absolutely have the tunes, so I'm not worried.

They headlined Other last time, but I think that stage has changed a fair bit since 2010. West Holts might be a better fit?

Put them away dear, please.

I should add, despite being bitter that my group took me to Other in 2010 when I wasn't keen they were great and put on a cracking show.

But I really can't see them being on the Legend slot next year of all years. 

Are they as universally popular as some of the others who have played in that slot in the last few years?

Thank you - fan presale have sold out of standing so guess O2 still have availability - cheers

They're headlining Radio 2 in Hyde Park at the weekend.

Kylie and ELO both did it the year before they played the Legends Slot.

Excellent pattern there - PSB for Legends slot :-)

Erm… yeah!

West End Girls, It's A Sin, Always On My Mind, Go West, Rent, What I Done to Deserve This....

They've got the tunes to slay that slot.
