At the Event Production Show launched today (2nd Feb) at London’s Olympia, Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis announced that Muse and will headline Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage on Saturday and it is “probable” that Stevie Wonder will on Sunday. They join U2 who have already been confirmed as the Friday night headliner.
Michael also revealed that flags will not be banned at this year’s festival, they had discussed a ban, but Emily wanted the flags to stay.
Great news about the way the 2010, 40th anniversary of Glastonbury in coming together, But I must ask the question Stevie Wonder on the Sunday night? – Even though I have a trememdous amount of respect for the Motown genius, I have to ask myself is he really the right person to have on the Pyramid Stage finishing off what should be a memorable three fantastic days of music and cider …. Surely there must be some other fantastic BANDS that are out there willing to play a storming Sunday night set.
completely agree, with all due respect to the guy, this is a complete let down! Sign up The Stones!
Same here… little disappointed…. Prob going to get some stick but I don’t understand the big deal with Muse…. All I ever hear is they put on a ‘great show!’…. think I’ll somewhere else Sat night….
Stevie Wonder is a Legend!…. and would be great to see him… but not last act on a sunday night!…. want to rock out…. can you imagine, Wolfmother are the act before him…. they finish their set with The Joker & The Thief…. the good old Stevie comes on Signed, Sealed, Delivered starts…. my moshing ability will be confused!….
