US band tipped to appear at 2015 festival

Foo Fighters are the new favourites to headline Glastonbury next year with bookmakers.

Dave Grohl himself has told NME that he is interested in the headline slot, with Emily Eavis responding to his comments. Now William Hill have cut the US band’s odds from 14/1 outsiders to 8/11 favourites.

Fleetwood Mac remain among the list of potential headliners with odds of 6/4, despite Mick Fleetwood stating outright that the band will definitely not be performing at next year’s festival.

“There’s a real gamble on for Foo Fighters to play at Glastonbury, but at this stage it looks like a combination of hopeful fans and those following the rumour-mill. Perhaps given the weight of money we’ve seen, there may be some truth in the rumours,” said William Hill spokesman Jon Ivan-Duke in a statement.

Other bands and artists bookmakers suggest could be in the running next year include Prince, Taylor Swift, Pink Floyd, Elton John, The Stone Roses, Iron Maiden and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds.
