[Music] Bands/singers that would take Glastonbury by storm in 2023

[WATFORD zero]

Yeah, 2019 - the last Glastonbury before this year!

Yeah, you stupid boy [MENTION=21158]Weststander[/MENTION]

 

[Guinness Boy]

It won't happen, but

Paul Weller, with special guests Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler for the last forty-five minutes of the near three hour set.

I'd just love Weller to headline Glasto.

Make it happen, Michael and Emily!

 

[Machiavelli]

Yeah, 2019 - the last Glastonbury before this year!

I'm a big fan. Saw them 10 times in the 80s, but thought they came across dull on the telly box (I'm sure it was great if you were there).

 

[Machiavelli]

Tom Waits

 

[Guinness Boy]

Tom Waits

Ohhhhhh!

Great call

 

[Wozza]

I'll go with:

Kate Bush - enough said

Madeon - maybe on West Holts stage. A serious omission this year

Good call - if she'd do it

2019, 2023 … yes please.

 

[Wozza]

If anyone says Springsteen after last time, just shut the thread. In fact, all of NSC.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Drive By Truckers
Broken Social Scene
Guided By Voices
My Bloody Valentine
The Wedding Present
Bob Mould
Throwing Muses

 

[BN9 BHA]

Green Day would be good

 

[Weststander]

Portishead

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

They previously turned it down... because they wanted control over which acts came on before them. Ridiculous.

Saw Dave Gahan play there once, though.

That’s a shame….and as you say ridiculous.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Didn't they headline a few years back?

Did they take the festival by storm though?

 

[Tony the Pony]

After seeing them last night in Coventry, Rammstein would literally blow the place away. Would never happen though.

 

[AmexRuislip]

I'd loved to have seen Luther Vandross headline at Glastonbury, but sadly that'll never happen.

 

[zefarelly]

I'd just love Weller to headline Glasto.

Make it happen, Michael and Emily!

93 or 94, brains a bit hazy, Saturday night line up was Elvis Costello & the attractions, AND Paul Weller

It was ****ing brilliant.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

According to Mr Eavis the next two years headliners are already booked. I reckon one will be Elton.

A gambler eh . .. .

Mrs GB and I had the "Elton; headliner or legend?" convo while watching this year's offerings.

I'd personally love him to rock up on Sunday afternoon in full on 70's glam rock regalia and bang out all the hits. As Crodo would say, the crowd would be lapping it up and having an absolute hoot.

I'm not sure he quite has that "Saturday, Pyramid Stage" vibe. She reckons he could headline the whole shebang.
