Glastonbury Headliner Poll Results In
We asked you, dear Xfm listeners, to let us know what you thought about last weekend's Glastonbury headliners. So who was your favourite headliner? Was it right for Jay-z to be there? e asked the question but you had the answer.
Unsurprisingly, 47% of you thought that Kings Of Leon were the best Pyramid Stage headliner, followed by The Verve with 37% of the poll while 16% cast their vote for Jay-Z's storming Saturday night set.
Jay-Z's slot caused controversy way before a beat was dropped. Back in February when Xfm exclusively revealed Jay-Z's prestigious headliner, the kind of uproar caused by festival-goers suggested that the reincarnation of Saddam Hussein had been booked for the Pyramid Stage rather than one of the world's top-selling artist.
However, having seen what the rapper can do, 33% of you decided that Jay-Z absolutely rinsed it with the best set ever. 25% decided that it was pretty decent while the naysayers made up 23%. A further 18% decided that, while he was good, he wasn't right for Glastonbury.
You can relive Glastonbury 2008 in our totally wonderful festival guide which is packed with more videos, artist interviews, photos and Glasto-related stuff than you could shake a muddy welly at. It might also help jog a few memories too.
