I think it's the Beach Boys (with Brian Wilson). The have played together last time around the mid-eighties and it could be a Glastonbury thing

You'll probably be pleased to know it won't be Dire Straits playing!

It could be The Kinks.

It's unlikely to be:

Comus ShockedShockedShockedShockedShockedShockedShockedShockedShocked
Les Rallizes Denudes LOL
'69 era KC Shocked
Atomic Rooster (unlikely, as Vincent Crane is no longer with us...)

They've done one or two things since, admittedly, but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that The Sex Pistols (hawk - spit) may drag their weary untalented bones out again...

If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice.

As much as I would love to be proved wrong, it just won't be Genesis, or any other of those bands mentioned...
 
'Over 30 years' means, sometime before 1977.
 
Glastonbury just doesn't do 'prog' (usually). It's not likely to have someone like Genesis or Fleetwood Mac or even Deep Purple headlining. The 'kids' would think Eavis had gone mad!
 
Nope, it's much more likely to be someone more 'indie' or punk. I can't think of any examples that exactly fit the bill, but I bet it's someone boring and predictable.

And if by 'original lineup' you're referring to the classic MkII line up, they were performing together from 1985 at Knebworth (I was there ) right up until Steve Morse replaced Blackmore in 1994/1995(ish)
    


You nailed it, man. By original, I mean the lineup right after the original lineup minus the original member who I mentioned in my post. EXACTLY what I was going for there.

Also, Satriani replaced Blackmore on the tour at first.

Two of Traffic's members are no longer with us...

Unless you mean The Spencer Davis Group.  Spencer Davis still performs, I saw him in the '80s with that All Stars Group he was a part of... could be them I guess, but I don't know the rest of the band.


On Winwood, Blind Faith maybe?

Jeremy Spencer has been performing in India for the last decade or so and has released albums as well.  He also performed on Mick Fleetwood's 2004 album, so he is still friendly with them.

Danny Kirwan doesn't play anymore and still lives in a home as far as I know.  However, Danny Kirwan was not an original member of Fleetwood Mac (he was drafted in as a third guitarist, because Peter Green wasn't too happy with Spencer's output), so it's not a big problem that he wouldn't be in the lineup.

I actually feel it'd be a huge disappointment if it was Fleetwood Mac, as much as I love their original output.  I am not sure that Peter Green is upto scratch... if it is indeed them, it'll be very interesting to see how they perform.

Having seen Peter Green's Spinter Group in 2002/03, I have witnessed for myself, what his playing is like.  Roger Watson was playing a lot of the solos and technical parts, but Peter Green still played a great slide.  His harmonica playing is better than ever however.

I saw the bogus "Deep Purple" in 1980 with Rod Evans in an old stadium here in my city. They played awful and were booed, and later there was a riot. Evans was sued later  by the real Deep Purple management, and he lost the royaties of the albums he recorded with them.
 
Blackmore left Deep Purple again or was fired with a lot of bad feelings in late 1993, during a tour, and was replaced by Joe Satriani in a few dates.I doubt that Deep Purple is going to have him playing guitar again. Blackmore is a very good guitarist but it seems that iis hard to work with him.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
