The full Glastonbury Festival line-up has been revealed and includes Morrissey opening the main stage for U2 on Friday night.
Other acts in the final 2011 Glastonbury line-up include Plan B, Tinie Tempah, The Vaccines, The Kills, Chipmunk, White Lies, Kaiser Chiefs and Jessie J and Laura Marling.
U2, Coldplay and Beyonce will be headlining the mega festival in June.
News that Morrissey will be performing has been greeted with glee by his loyal fans. The Smiths legend first played Glastonbury in 1984 and had to cut short his set when the stage was invaded.
“When the Smiths played in 1984 it changed everything for us. We had just been about hippy bands until then and when they performed it was like a bolt of lightning,” said Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis.

Bands playing some of the smaller stages include The Eels, Gruff Rhys, Guillemots, Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip, Graham Coxon.
Festival organiser Emily Eavis said that 2011 promises to be one of the most musically diverse Glastonbury festivals ever.
“To get all of these incredible artists is really quite a feat. I think this is one of most eclectic line-ups yet,” she said.
Twitter is abuzz with news of Glastonbury’s final line-up.
