meklemek - I think you made a very valid point about the whole diversity issue.. and then you had to undo all your good work by saying "jay z has made more of a contribution to music than oasis will ever do" Im quite happy to go and see Jay-Z and i think some of his stuff is really good - But if rumours are true and he is throwing his toys out the pram, then get rid of him and get someone else in. My own choice would be the aforementioned Oasis but theres not a hope in hell they will play as an after thought. If you want to keep the diversity then get Kanye to headline.

Ok, so people are getting on their high horse about 3 Headliners and about a handful of other bands that have been announced so far. Last year some of the bands who played OTHER than the 3 headliners included Kasabian, The Fratellis, Bloc Party, The Magic Numbers, Amy Winehouse, Gogol Bordello, The Kooks, Paul Weller, Dirty Pretty Things, Guillemots, Kaiser Chiefs, Manic Street Preachers, Dame Shirley Bassey, Arcade Fire, Rufus Wainwright, The Coral, Super Furry Animals, Bright Eyes, Modest Mouse, The Cribs, Iggy And The Stooges, Editors, Maximo Park, Babyshambles, Klaxons, CSS, Biffy Clyro, The Long Blondes, The Chemical Brothers, The View, The Go! Team, The Rakes, Coldwar Kids, Sunshine Underground, The Enemy, Hot Chip, Maccabees, Hold Steady, Tokyo Police Club, The Twang, Pigeon Detectives, Gossip, Jamie T. People have to remember that there are still hundreds of bands to be announced and Glastonbury is about so much more than just the music anyway. Kings of Leon had one of the best albums last year and are an amazing live band and nobody can say that hearing Bittersweet Symphony, Lucky Man, Drugs Dont Work etc wont be amazing. If you dont like Jay-Z then watch someone else. Glastonbury is amazing and will be this year too.
