I'm beginning to think Duffy might play, (as I don't think she's listed) ME said something about her last year coming back...

Maybe shes doing the Shangri La secret slot 12.20am on Saturday night

The Park suprise is a band although 3 slots are open to 'special guests' fri/sat?  

Duffy would be ok

the park stage lineup this year is complete tosh except for the Animal Collective and what looks like some Fela Kuti celebration gig thingy, problem is they clash with Neil Young and Blur so wont be there

So these special guests better be good because the park is one my favourite places and i would like to be there alot

Sort it out Emily, i still haven't forgiven her for cutting Battles gig to 4 songs last year

Good Lord!!

Why would anyone do that? Who for

This thread was not intended for suggestions, only facts. Failed thread then I guess

ive got a strange feeling it might be the faces!

When do we actually find out the special guests? Do we have to wait until they're actually coming onto the stage? Is it announced on the time booklet thingy that we get when we get in? or are we able to find out before wednesday?

sorry i'm a complete n00b! x

Combination of

eFestivals/Neil digging up the info for us

Halvin pimping his contacts

Read the full programme when we get there, might be confirmed in that

Read the daily freebie Glasto newspaper on site every day

Ask people you meet, especially people working at stages

And the least satisfying if you miss the gig: pure luck!!

You forget of course that Neil knows, but if he tells us he won't know next time around.... You would keep stum too...

The secret acts won't be all that wow and you won't feel too robbed if you miss them.*


(*not libel if you favourite band are the secret act in question)

well i can make mostly all the special slots this year apart from the H/S risk one but from the rumoured bands i don't think i'll be bothered.
only one i bothered about is the friday one at about 6pm. i think thats The Dead Weather

[MarkDavis]

Guyss, no-one is going to know until the second the band walks on Lets just all be patietn

Hopeful - but The Libertines maybe?

Its the same slot that Pete Doherty was supposed to be playing and he is now booked for about an hour before on the other stage.

Working at the Park again this year so will be able to find out when there, which is nice.

Klaxons or Vampire Weekend (as they don't seem to be on the lineup) would be my other guesses.

Lets hope not i bought that first album and it was appalling. Heard on the radio last night that there record company has scraped their new album that they wanted to release as it was so bad!

yeah and they have 30 songs they want to put on a second album but can't get anyone to produce it

I'm going with Thom Yorke for the Saturday.

He's doing a solo gig at Latitidue, so it definatly isn't out of the question.
