It's worth noting that the band have never performed at Glastonbury - could they grace the fields of Worthy Farm this summer? If not, we'd hope to see them either headlining Reading & Leeds again, or perhaps London's British Summer Time at Hyde Park. Stay tuned to Gigwise for the latest news and developments.
