    Bruce Springsteen Replaces Jay-Z

    Glastonbury's promoters have announced the initial details behind this year's bill, including Bruce Springsteen's headlining slot on Saturday night and an appearance by Franz Ferdinand. At this point, Neil Young and a recently-reunited Blur are rumored to be the fest's other two headliners.

    "I'm knocked out that we've managed to get Bruce to play," Emily Eavis, one of Glastonbury's co-organizers, said in a statement. "It's the icing on the cake of this year's bill, which I'm sure will take everyone's breath away when we announce the full details."

    While tickets are technically sold out, a "very limited" amount of cancelled spots will go on sale April 5.
