  • Pilton...I mean Glasto' Festival

Needs a proper rock band to headline. I reckon someone like Anvil would do the trick.

Iron Maiden, Depeche Mode, Prince and Fleetwood Mac. Just four artists that should have headlined. Will probably be Coldplay for the fifth time

    Adele and Ed Sheeran, with Jive Bunny in support. Roisin Murphy on backing vocals.

    alistair Fleetwood Mac headlining the Pyramid would be my proper once-in-a-lifetime gig…

      They’re after too much money the greedy bastards.

        alistair Depeche Mode

        They did a neat trick of being a stadium act while staying sort of underground, or alternative at the same time. I can see why they never headlined, I don’t think they even did any festivals until recently.

          alistair not sure I’d want to see them now. Was lucky enough to see them in 1990, albeit without Lindsey….again

            Arctic Monkeys would be good again especially with a new album round the corner

              vinnyt77 Glastonbury doesn’t pay as much as normal gigs despite their massive ticket sales. Whether your a band or DJ it’s a supposed privledge to play there. Greg Wilson said on his blog they only pay 2/3rd of your normal fee.

                  Coachella is the same for lower-billed acts. Organizers see it as the best sort of promotion if you get booked there. Not sure about the super-headliners. I would guess they get a fairly high rate. Not sure why Coachella bothers given the place will sell out regardless of who the headliner is. Guess it’s a prestige thing.

                    Lol, America really doesn’t know how to do festivals.

                    Movement aside that is of course.
