 The Glastonbury music festival in England has come under hard times, due to a larger number of competing music festivals in Europe and world-wide competing for the same audience, that same audience seeing the same headliners over and over, ticket prices and some say this year because of Jay-Z’s clash with the spirit of Glastonbury.

But only until now has the full line-up, in another blow to Glastonbury, been published… and this is a leak and not the official word… but as good as official (supposedly):
