Kylie WON'T play Glastonbury, after all

by Mike Diver

Despite many rumours saying she would perform, Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis has told BBC 6Music that Kylie Minogue won't be playing 2007's festival.

Eavis told the digital station: "She's got a lot of touring up her sleeve and I think if she was going to do Glastonbury, she'd rework her show and I don't think it's going to be possible in that time frame. It's just not going to happen."

Eavis also ruled both Muse and The Killers out of the headliner equation. She wouldn't confirm any acts, but Kasabian have been making it clear to their audiences that they expect to appear. It's also likely that Scissor Sisters will be on the line-up, albeit probably not as headliners... or will they?

Tickets for Glastonbury 2007 go on sale in April. Who do you want to headline? Muse would be good, but if not them, Radiohead? They'll have a new album to promote, hopefully. What about Arctic Monkeys, or Kaiser Chiefs, or Franz Ferdinand? Obvious choices, but crowd-pleasers nonetheless.

Rumours, let them run amok...


Take That?

ahahahah.

never say never.


Good

its slowly turned into a V festival

its a festival of the arts... not vacuous pop

and i am not being Rockist or what ever

but its the same as having robbie there

the line ups have got progressly worse year on year... It was much better when it wasnt a cool thing to do.. now you get so many twats who complian its not got enough showers and the sound systems go on all night bo hoo

thats the point not many festivals you can go to and stay up for 3 days ...

Gfestival 2007


Someone

with more than 2 albums would be nice


sigh

'What about Arctic Monkeys, or Kaiser Chiefs, or Franz Ferdinand? Obvious choices, but crowd-pleasers nonetheless.'

reading this paragraph depresses me inordinately. it makes me realise just how much I hate new music.


Bjork

Tom Waits
Marilyn Manson! yeah
Jimi Hendrix!! o wait


Bjork

That'd be amazing, actually.


but not likely

does she do festivals?


has headlined

reading festival before


She has

The same year that the Foo Fighters were crammed into a tent for their first UK festival appearance, 1995 was it?
I was there, but I watched Delicatessen instead.


and,

THANK FUCK she isnt headlining. would be terrible.

scissor sisters???? surely theres bigger bands??? not that that means they're good, but usually someone bigger


Kasabian

as headliners....

Fuck this. I hope Iran and Israel start nuclear war JUST so we can stop them.


how can they be?

is their fan base that big? have they ever had a top ten hit????


Kasabian Headling would please me a lot.

I adore Kasabian.


I think it's a shame she's not headlining...

not that i'm going or anything, i'm going to Roskilde so there....She'd be worth seeing though i reckon.

It'll clearly be the Who, Springsteen and a reformed Shed 7.


They usually only have one 'old' act

and I think Townshed said the Who will play


I think The Who will play

Muse would be awesome, but they only did it a couple of years ago.
Same for Radiohead.


Aphex Twin

Daft Punk
65daysofstatic
Shellac
Deerhoof

Of corse realisticly none of these would play, but its a nice dream


No reason

why any of them wouldn't play, apart from Shellac who don't like playing big outdoor festivals on the whole.

Aphex has played several times and Daft Punk in 97.


Aphex

Twin plays most years, the rest unfortunately not!


No Springsteen either!

Things are looking very good indeed.

No Radiohead thanks. Nor Arctics, Kaisers or Franz. What crap suggestions, Diver!

I'd like to threaten the Smiths into getting back together for it, and then go and threaten the Roses.

Dreams.


'Who do you want to headline?'

Don't care really. The Eavis family are hardly going to take any risks.
i'd rather go to Bestival instead thanks.


well

all being well smashing pumpkins will be over sometime next year, so that would be just awesome. though it would make tickets rarer than gold dust, more so.
led zeppelin are touring the US next year as well apparently.
so i'd like pumpkins, zeppelin and......erm, rage, about time they kissed and made up.
this is looking more like a download line up, still, i can hope.


yes indeed..

pumpkins would be loverly.. otherwise i'm not that bothered, there's far too much to do at glastonbury to worry about who's headlining the main stage..


A

Great line up would be a band from every era, rather than what the current lot of festivals provide which are bands from this weeks NME top ten


Pumpkins,

zep and Rage Against The Mart Hines?

That sounds like a fucking Download line up.

You need someone EVERYONE knows and can tolerate (apart from indie elitists obv). Like Coldplay or The Killers.

A lot don't like SPs.

Zep wouldn't be the same without the other two.

RATM are crap.
