    Ah, I see this about Coldplay.

    Would have liked Florence.. already seen her support Snow Patrol, but absolutely brilliant. New song is cracking too!

    Fingers, legs and everything else crossed for Blur.... that'd be amazing!

    Yeah I was hoping for a bit of Flo but would take Blur over anyone.

    seems like FATM will be playing, but will definitely not be headliners from what efestivals have heard.
    it would have to be a big headliner for them to be playing 2nd i'd have thought, as surely they're on the cusp of headliner status themselves?

    Counting Crows is a given I'd say since they're playing Ireland on the Wednesday before.. though they're at Rock Werchter on the Sunday so maybe a Friday slot.

    This is going to be the most expensive Glastonbury yet. Euro is plummeting against Sterling. Really annoyed I couldn't have paid a balance in October. Ticket will be at least 20 euro more expensive now.

    If you give him a chance I think he will be one of the performances of the weekend. Never been to or seen a Kanye gig that wasn't great.

    I'd rather a wildcard like Kanye than the default "on call" headliner that is Coldplay. Either way there'll be at least two other bands who would easily be the headliners of any other festival also on at the same time.

    Absolute ****e. The worst choice would be the same old same old ****e (Coldplay, Snow patrol, Elbow, Muse, Kings of Leon, The Killers) or promoting acts clearly out of their depth (Kasabian, Arcade Fire, or potentially Florence or Libertines etc.)
    Like him or loathe him his music speaks for itself and its only people taken in by his **** behaviour or with no interest in anything other than rock music that dismiss him. I saw him last summer and he was a joke but that's the risk you take. On the watch the throne gigs he was phenomenal, both solo and with Jay Z. He is the biggest rapper alive and saying that's a bad choice for a headliner tells me you know **** all about Glastonbury.
