Daft Punk and The Stone Roses will definintely NOT be headlining Glastonbury 2017, festival curator Emily Eavis has confirmed.
Speaking with NME earlier today following the confirmation of Radiohead’s headline slot, Eavis said “There’s no more [headliner] announcements now for a while, but I will tell you the other two that have been rumoured aren’t happening…. There was a news story that said Daft Punk and Stone Roses. That’s not true. I don’t know where that came from.”
Whilst this is indeed disappointing news, one should still remember the other 99 stages that make up Worthy Farm every summer – a Stone Roses support slot prior to a headliner could still be achievable, whilst a Daft Punk headline show on The Other Stage shouldn’t be discounted either (don’t forget, when Eavis mentioned ‘headliners’, a majority of the time this is focused purely on The Pyramid Stage).
