The rockers last appeared at the Festival as special guests in 2009 playing on Saturday's sunset slot before headliner Bruce Springsteen. In an interview where they discuss their summer plans for 2012 which won't include Glastonbury Festival, as the Festival is having a year off, they reveal how much they would like to return to the festival as headliners in the future.

Singer Tom Meighan says "It would have been brilliant to play Glastonbury but all we need is a phone call from Michael Eavis and we'll be there for 2013."

The Leicester band's guitarist Sergio Pizzorno adds, "One thing I really want to do before all this ends is to headline Glastonbury as we've always had an incredible time playing there. Hopefully it'll happen.

"The one thing you need to pull off a good Glastonbury headline show is f***ing good tunes and we've got enough of them to do that."

Listeners of the station choose from a list of 21 acts who performed at festivals including Glastonbury, T In The Park, Latitude, Reading and Leeds, V Festival, The Big Chill, Isle of Wight, and Bestival, the Saturday night Glastonbury headliners came out top.

With their continuing rise in popularity, they have to be one of the stronger possibilities to be one of the headliners in 2013.
