Glastonbury's New Headliner: Who Should Replace Foo Fighters?

Who Should Replace Foo Fighters At Glastonbury?
|

*UPDATE* - The new headliner has been chosen! Find out who it is here...

Dave Grohl’s broken leg has forced Foo Fighters to pull out of Glastonbury, and we can only imagine the stress levels at Worthy Farm, as the festival’s organisers scramble to arrange a new headliner, just days before the festival.

Luckily, there are a number of options and if the Eavis family are stuck, then the good people of Twitter have more than a few suggestions.

Thanks to other events taking place, a number of huge acts are in town (well, in the UK) next week, and we've been busy scanning their calendars to work out who could step in for Dave and co.

Naturally, there are a few wishful thinkers out there too but sadly, we don’t think Fleetwood Mac will move their London gig to accommodate stepping in for the Foos (sorry).

So who could replace Foo Fighters? Check out all of the options below…

Glastonbury: Who Could Replace Foo Fighters?

Florence Welch is already scheduled to play on the Friday evening, so logistically bumping her up wouldn't be a problem. But is she really ready to headline? (credit:John Davisson/Invision/AP)
Blur (02 of10)

Sources are claiming that Michael Eavis could nab one of the headliners from Isle Of Wight Festival, that took place last week. Blur certainly impressed the crowds, and from previous experiences, we know they're more than capable of impressing on the Pyramid Stage. (credit:Rob Ball via Getty Images)

They're scheduled to play the O2 on the same night so it can't really happen... but we can dream right? (credit:Jim Ross/Invision/AP)
The Stone Roses(08 of10)

Ian Brown and co pulled out of the festival, and Pulp - who were about to release 'Different Class' stepped in. 20 years on, could they make up for their absence? (credit:Jim Ross/Invision/AP)
Adele (09 of10)

Adele has been on the Eavis family's wishlist for quite some time. She's thought to be working on a new album, and the iconic Pyrmaid Stage is surely the best place to make a comeback. (credit:Chris Pizzello/AP)
