According to reports, Stevie Nicks and co have prompted Rumours they could be headlining the festival during its 50th anniversary.

  • Fleetwood Mac has set tongues wagging after it was reported they teased a headline slot at Glastonbury 2020. The Dreams rockers played a huge show at London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday (16 June.
  • ASAP Rocky is due to perform a headline slot at Wireless festival on Sunday, though it is unclear if he will be available. The New York-born musician had performed at the Smash festival in Sweden.
  • Kasabian target Glasto headline slot. Kasabian want to headline Glastonbury in 2013. Wednesday, September 28, 2011 - 11:16 AM. Kasabian want to headline Glastonbury in 2013.
  • I have one simple question. Recently I read a hubber's text and was mesmerized by their lay-out/design. What impressed me was how they obviously bypassed the slot on the first page 'Start New Hub,' at the top where we type the headline and they inserted (on their hub) a gorgeous Type-styled or Photo Shop-manufactured headline in a Caligraphy-type of headline.

Fleetwood Mac has set tongues wagging after it was reported they teased a headline slot at Glastonbury 2020.

The Dreams rockers played a huge show at London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday (16 June), where they played a career-spanning set of their greatest hits.

The Killers will take to the Pyramid stage on Saturday night, 12 years after sound issues plagued their last headline slot at the festival. Other acts to feature on the main stage are Liam Gallagher, Janet Jackson, Hozier, Anne-Marie, Carrie Underwood and The Proclaimers.

However, tweets begun emerging which reported the band told the crowd they still 'had a big field to play'.

Meanwhile, others claimed that the band made reference to 'a rained out festival in England next year'.

It's not the only time Glastonbury has come up in conversation with the band recently.

“I think the legend of Glastonbury and Fleetwood Mac will come true,” Mick Fleetwood told The Independent.

“I think I’ll burn in hell if we don’t do it one day.”

Meanwhile, it's already been let slip that The Beatles legend Paul McCartney is 'hopefully' set to play Glastonbury 2020.

Speaking to BBC Somerset, the festival founder Michael Eavis said: “Paul’s on good form at the moment.”

Asked by the reporter if he meant that McCartney would be heading to the festival, Eavis let slip: “Hopefully for the 50th.”

He added, rather sweetly, “But don’t make a big thing of it will you?”

'So they go every year, like a lot of people these days, and it is a great festival and we played there quite a long time ago so, maybe it is time to go back, I don’t know, I’d have to put a few things in place and try and do that but it’s starting to become some sort of remote possibility.

'I mean it’s definitely not fixed yet but people are starting to talk about it.'
