That's what Glastonbury has always done though. They only reveal the line up once tickets have (as good as) sold out.

So it would seem.

 

I don't think there's a problem having Beyonce, I'd be watching Queens of the Stone Age instead. Isnt she only doing it because the Stones turned it down?

Not always. It's only really since the whole wall-building, inflation-busting bullshit of the last ten years or so that this kind of thing has happened at any festivals. I remember the first time I considered going to Glastonbury was in about 1993 and a few weeks out tickets were still available for under

Springsteen and Wonder didn't really have the "legend" spot though, did they? That has always been the Sunday spot fourth from the top, which is what Paul Simon has been given. He'll probably get given a long as fuck set as well like many of them do. I don't think the placing is a slight on Paul Simon. The year Wonder headlined, it was Ray Davies that had the slot, it was Neil Diamond the year that Cohen played, and Tom Jones the year that Springsteen headlined. It's just traditional that a legend gets the fourth from top spot at Glasto.

 

Remember when Brian Wilson got the biggest crowd of the weekend in that slot? Played for about two hours and the sight of all of those people was something.
