Glastonbury:

Following on from the news that U2 have pulled out of the festival due to Bono's onoing back problems rumours have started at who will be taking their place. NME.com reckon it could be Led Zeppelin. I'd quite like it to be someone else. Not that I'm going but, y'know, from the comfort of your own armchair and everything.

UPDATE: We all now know who it's going to be that replaces Bono and co. It's Gorillaz. Hooray. Now we can sleep well.
