SPOTIFY LISTENERS VOTE FOR FLEETWOOD MAC TO HEADLINE GLASTONBURY

Fleetwood Mac have been named the ultimate Glastonbury headline act by Spotify listeners.

The annual music festival was forced to cancel its 2020 event - which was due to take place this weekend - due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and as festival goers around the country lament the lack of live music, Spotify have unveiled the list of the ultimate Glastonbury line-up.

The streaming service had the UK public vote for the artists they'd most like to see take to the stage at the iconic festival, and have revealed 'The Chain' hitmakers Fleetwood Mac came out on top as the most sought after festival headliner.

The band were closely followed by legendary musician Sir Elton John and Led Zeppelin, indicating a theme of nostalgia which is currently sweeping the nation. - MSN

Fleetwood Mac for Glastonbury Festival?
Tuesday 24th February 2009

eFestivals believes that Fleetwood Mac will be making an appearance at this year's Glastonbury Festival.

The British/American rock band which formed in 1967 are putting together a 'Fleetwood Mac Unleashed: Hits Tour 2009', and it's more than a rumour that the dates will include an appearance at the Festival in Pilton, Somerset. The tour will feature the band's greatest hits, rather than their latest material, and will coincide with a new CD/DVD version of their classic album 'Rumours' which contains previously unreleased tracks and footage.

eFestivals is unsure which day they will be appearing, but one of our sources says that Mick Fleetwood, Stevie Nicks, and company will be playing on the Saturday.

Tickets for Glastonbury Festival held for five full days from Wednesday 24th until Sunday 28th June 2009 at Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset have already sold out months before the event.

Although the full line-up for this year's Festival has not yet been announced, to see who might be playing take a look at the eFestivals' Glastonbury 2009 rumours.
