"Really big secret"

Emily also says in that interview that "I'm just pleased we've managed to keep it secret for this long. We've had it for about six months."

As an aside, if it doesn't turn out to be Gaga, it'll be interesting to know why she dropped out of the picture as in that late October NME interview, it was hinted she was in the frame when she said "I don’t have permission to say anything about that" when asked about Glastonbury.

As another aside, late October to early May is about 6 months.

I'm rolling with Gaga talking sub slot for Foos. ....said it before and hoping it comes true

Just to throw a few more wildcard names in the ring.

1. Chase and Status have a new album coming this summer, collabs include This Moment with Blossoms which is currently doing the rounds on radio.

2. Calvin Harris also has a new album coming June 30th, collabs with Katy Perry, Ariana Grande, Snoop Dogg, John Legend. What makes this a more interesting possibility for me is that although he's based in America now he usually plays 1 / 2 British festivals each summer. Usually he will play T in the Park and a.n.other while he's here, T in the Park is cancelled this year and I think it would be in Glasto style to support him as a successful international British artist.

Looks like they're nailed on for 2020, given what Lambert's said recently and the rest of the EE article.

Missed this, what did Lambert say?

[Havors]

Kings of Leon could squeeze a day in. So could Arcade Fire. So could Green Day. Phil Collins could sneak a saturday in.

If its Liam Gallagher I wont be best pleased... 

[Fingerbobs]

Holy plops a mini Macca Pepper set shoe horned in it would be beyond joyous.  See you all at the Crows Nest at 3 (he'll be there each day).

"The Gang Turns Black" - Live.


What are the rules?

That was the most disappointing start to a new series.....I'm not a fan of musicals.

And this is why there is zero chance of me ever seeing a set of this nature.

Gaps? There are no gaps, in the BenFinder^TM.

No choice.  We're going to kidnap you and tie you to a chair and force you to wait for a secret set.  Lucy's going to film and youtube it. Y'know for the LOLs.

Hoping that either the Gaga or Diana Ross rumour turns out to be true..... cross fingers 

And this is why I haven't taken her off my signature.  It will still happen.

It was about 6 months ago that Ray Davies said something about The Kinks potentially doing Glastonbury, and ME said in an interview shortly after that he'd just been on the phone to RD.

[Alvarhanso]

my guess is lady gaga, if you read the full article, Emily says they have managed to keep it quiet for 6 months.

 

what happened pretty much 6 months ago? gaga said she couldn't talk about glastonbury

[russycarps]

so it's going to be a big name saturday sub headliner then, paving the way for the national to headline the other stage. Excellent news.

I haven't watched The Sopranos for at least a year now. Need to do something about that.

I was the same. Watched episode 1 the other day and fell in love with it all over again!

This only rekindles my daft punk hopes, only to have them inevitably knocked down again

[dj matt james]

I think that Gaga could be a good shout - this is also in keeping with the attempt for more female artists as mentioned in the Emily Eavis article.

Kendrick Lamar if not already mentioned? He's free at the time.

Don't put good stuff into the mixer, that would be brilliant! We have to assume it is Liam Gallagher in a rain mac and sunglasses,  wth the crowd only really livening up when he plays wonderwall at the end.

[cidy]

It's the SUN Emily has concrete proof of a new top secret weather predictor in weston zoyland , would rather have that than gaga ,Williams ,daft punk etc etc

Or maybe Gaga before Radiohead and the XX at the Park rumour was true!

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers? Legends Slot
They are 'apparently' UK exclusive for their 40th anniversary tour at Hyde Park but one can dream, having said that they are in Pasadena on 24th, be a bit of a mission to make the Sunday slot. I've just talked myself out of it but enjoyed making the suggestion anyway
