BBB News has confirmed that the virtual rock group Gorillaz will be replacing U2 as headliners of England’s Glastonbury Festival this June. U2 had to cancel Glastonbury and postpone their upcoming U.S. shows due to Bono’s emergency back surgery last week and the two months it will take him to recover. This report puts an official end to all the hopes and rumors of a Led Zeppelin reunion resulting in a much less interesting Glastonbury Festival.

    meh – i have no desire to see Zep in any current iteration. No (John) Bonham, No Zep.

    U2 for Gorillaz is not exactly even, but is much better than a Zep reunion.

    wow. “meh” on zeppelin.

    i’d rather see a zeppelin reunion with bonham’s son than a beatles reunion with the ghosts of george and john. just saying, that’s how i roll.

    Who brought the Beatles into this? That is a ridiculous statement. Cmon.

    Those Brits love them some Blur…….probably an upgrade for most.

    a definite “meh” to any reunion featuring 60+ year old dudes trying to recreate magic from 30-40 years ago.
