Glastonbury have 'headliners stacked up' until 2017
- Published
Just over two months after Kanye pronounced himself the greatest living rock star at Glastonbury 2015, it's prime time to start the rumour mill for next year's line-up, right?
Festival founder Michael Eavis has gone one better and told Newsbeat that the event has already booked headliners until 2017.
He's not ready to name names, though.
"It's more than my life's worth to tell you that," he said.
This year's Glastonbury was headlined by Kanye West, The Who and Florence + The Machine, the latter filling in for Foo Fighters.
After a warning from his daughter and co-organiser Emily about not naming any upcoming headliners, Michael remained tight-lipped but did say two of the artists booked for 2017 haven't headlined the festival before.
Despite saying they are "alright" for 2016 and 2017 he said he's "worried" about future festivals because there "is a shortage of headliners at the moment".
Speaking at the AIM Independent Music awards he said: "We're still recycling headliners of the past. I don't know who the next really big thing is, to be honest with you. I mean, we're looking for it."
He said Foals, who Reading and Leeds organiser Melvin Benn recently said he'd like to see top the bill at his festival at some point, are "maybe, maybe, maybe" potential future headliners on the Pyramid stage.
Michael added: "But the whole show doesn't depend on headliners does it? I mean it's nice to have them.
"It's what people talk about all the time but the show is bigger than that."
The first batch of tickets for Glastonbury 2016 go on sale on 1 October.
Michael said although he "fought hard" to keep the ticket price down, the cost for next year's festival is going up by £8 to £228.
