Acts missing from line up?

Im really happy with the lineup so far, however was a bit gutted at the lack of Lady Gaga. Also based on festivals around the time was really hoping for Jimmy Eat World, Belle & Sebastian, Editors, Gogol Bordello, Against Me!, Cage the Elephant, The Kills, Crystal Fighters, White Lies, Lana Del Rey, Pixies, Enter Shikari, The Hives and Don Broco. I have to admit some of them weren't that likely to begin with but still hoping for some to be announced.

I wonder if one of the missing acts is the 'secret' Other Stage Friday opener? 

Richard Ashcroft or Liam G could probably fit that bill. 

Yeah the 2 you said or The Kooks/Elbow seem very likely candidates for that spot

My money is on the Manics. They're playing Bristol Sounds on the Thursday.

He's working on a very politically themed new album so I can see him headlining Leftfield this year (meaning he wouldn't be announced yet).

Yeah sounds about right, reckon he'll get another slot too and probably do a Slummerville set.

I doubt Liam again, Richard maybe but I think he'll be added.

A second date at Birmingham was added yesterday morning so I bought tickets,

That's why they would hold back.

Think Maccabees became extremely unlikely once they announced Academy gigs on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th.

So disappointing if they arnt there, also makes the whole waiting til this summer for end shows decision baffling to say the least!

Gogol Bordello would've been fun.  Think they played back in like 2007 or something didn't they?

Yes they did 

yeah, i remember me and a mate stumbled on them thought that a bunch of people badly mashing together punk and gypsy music was hilarious at the time, then after we both looked at each other and were like "that was fun as fuck" and it ended up being our favourite gig of the festival

Must admit I'd never heard of them but a friend convinced me to see them and they were great
