Glastonbury man Michael Eavis has confirmed he turned down an offer by Paul McCartney to headline this year's festival as something of a finale to Macca's mega world tour. Eavis told journalists yesterday that the former Beatle approached him about playing, but that he to refuse as the line-up, with Radiohead headlining, had already been confirmed.
Eavis said: "We tried to work it out with Paul - I offered him the headline on Friday and Sunday but he said that it was Saturday or nothing. I told him Radiohead were already booked but it was no good, so I had to say no to him."
A Glastonbury source said: "He may play at the festival next year though."
