From Emily's interview in Cosmopolitan last month...

"As for other dream headliners, Eavis has her hopes set on landing Fleetwood Mac, Tom Waits or Kate Bush."

Any one of those would be a dream, although I think there's a snowball's chance in hell of any of them happening.

Sounds like she's deliberately name dropped the most outside of outside bets. 

If she'd said e.g. Dua Lila and Dave it would be too much of a clue.

Thought Big Boi and Andre had massively fallen out? Heard their last tour was a disaster.

Slipknot is a great shout, but would NEVER happen.  Saw them years ago and it was utter batshit crazy.

Sleep at Shangri-la, wanna follow the smoke to the riff filled land.

KLF - officially

Officially? Is that a hint that they’ve played?

Stories of them doing some stuff back in the 90's in a typical KLF fashion, but have, to the best of my knowledge, been officially on the line-up.

[rubenz]

Iron Maiden, Depeche Mode and Pearl Jam would be good from the bigger bands who have never done it. 

And of course the Swiftmeister

I hope I never find out then, it would be disappointing to have been watching some shite 90’s indie band while missing them.

Eminem/Dr Dre/Snoop (yes I know the later has played)

Missy Elliott

I've often wondered how this happened, there's no way it was a Michael choice and I'd be surprised if it was Emily.

Whatever, it was an absolute genius booking, just a shame it was mid afternoon and not headliner.

Lloyd Cole, seen him once at a festival, would make a great acoustic headliner for me

1986 Pyramid sub, if my memory serves me well

Quote

Eavis said that after Jay-Z's controversial but ultimately acclaimed performance, the festival had been keen to have another urban artist of equal standing. "Jay-Z worked so well, when we heard it was a possibility that Snoop Dogg could do it we went to work."

Seems Michael was involved after all!

don't remember lloyd cole, i do remember the cure, lightning, lsd and lasers. 😛 

[sunnyshoes]

Stone Roses - the headline slot that never was. I wonder if they reformed now whether they would be viewed as Pyramid or Other Stage headliners. They're Pyramid all the way in my eyes but that's my opinion.
