Obviously the correct answer.

Edit: A month or so back I saw a tweet along the lines of 'the secret's out of the bag. Depeche Mode at Glastonbury'. I asked them where they got the info from but they just deleted the tweet. I ignored it at the time as she didn't seem to have any industry links and well, people talk shite on Twitter.

I would love it if this were true!  I would love to hear the opening riff to What Time Is Love thundering out across the Pyramid field

Totally ! It would make it my best Glasto ever, that being said, it's never gonna happen lol

[Daisygrubber]

I think it's going to happen...Barry Manilow. He's definitely doing the rounds on tv at the minute. This would be amazing 

[Tr234]

Wonder when it'll be announced

I'd love one done in a similar fashion to The Libertines

I thought that was done perfectly the way the rumours just spread on the day and then the curtain lowered to reveal their backdrop, was such a great moment if you're a fan

And disastrous if you're not.

Not really, you didn't have to be at Pyramid to witness it

It would be disastrous for me to watch Adele or Muse but thankfully there's around 100 other stages

I know it's their cheesy stadium number, but imagine a completely secret set, like properly secret, and that opening vocal to 3am Eternal blasts out of the system. Hot damn.

I think you are missing the point of it supposedly being a secret.

Yes but trying to get out of a mobbed pyramid crowd i would consider disastrous. The premise is you don't know till the reveal on stage which means you would have to be there to witness it.

Not sure Leftfield would live up to the "really big secret" hype but I am going to see them at Motion tonight and they would definitely be a very welcome addition to Glastonbury

Very jealous, enjoy!!!  No1 LP of all time for me.   Such a loud band to see live too, that low end rumble.

[mufcok]

Yeah fair point although it was pretty common knowledge through the day, word started going about the night before

A gamble certainly, but would chuck an element of the unknown back into proceedings.  Worst case is you die a little inside as Chris Martin potters onstage and wander off to watch something else.

Best case is the opening riff to Robot Rock comes at you!

I remember Caribou at West Holts beeing a more than adequate alternative!

[simian_mobile_mushrooms]

Where on Earth would they put an act if it was truly THAT big. Depeche Mode or Daft Punk?! Surely all the Other Stage is headlined up and West Holts. There's not many other places a huge band could be at

Yeah but what if it turned out to be Bastille or The 1975? My fucking ears Quark! Think you'd understand more than most.

[mufcok]

Secret sets are always a gamble to be fair, lest we forget Daft Punk/Chase & Status gate

Word usually gets out though more often than not and this place is a massive help for that

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Re the Libertines, you pays your money you take your choice, if it's a secret and you turn up to see what it is, you have to be prepared for disappointment, its the nature of surprises, they're a SUPRISE!
