Just when we're content with what we have so far and the way the announcements are being released...

THEY REEL US BACK IN to wild speculation.

It's like late Feb / early March all over again

An extravagant drawn out reveal a la Radiohead and Foos would certainly liven things up during the wait 

Although imagine if it's a huge act who only get revealed in the festival programme when we arrive. Absolute scenes on Wednesday morning.

Bit random (and not sure if it's that big of a deal) but i think Celine Dion is around glasto week

[Quark]

Is this going to be a "big secret" in the way that "this year's festival was / is / will be the best ever"?

I think Sunday night seems a potential. That BBK Other Stage headline slot seems like it'd be balanced out by something elsewhere. I'd be happy seeing Justice on West Holts anyway. 

BBK are gonna struggle to pull a big crowd as it is without sticking some huge act up against them (alongside Ed).

Ya I didn't mean The Maccabees for the main secret as that would be a bit meh for most, but I still think they'll do the Sunday and that's one of the secret sets she is on about.  I hope so aswell as I thought they were well on the way to being a headliner

[SwedgeAntilles]

I'm not a fan, but I'd have to laugh if it did turn out to be a Sheeran secret set she was talking about. Not only headlining but if the big secret is "ladies and gentlemen, you're getting to see.. ED SHEERAN AGAIN! He's everywhere! Number 1 to number 10 in the charts! Playing every stage at Glastonbury! And taking up TWO slots! Ed! Ed! Ed! Ed!" 

Actually don't think I would laugh.

You'd be surprised, seeing how big Grime is at the moment I recon they'll be a decent sized crowd for it

[dentalplan]

Really big shoe... really big.

[Kalopsia]

Queens Of The Stone Age...I can hope at least!

Ed Sheeran secret set?

If that's what she's on about, I can let the cat out of bag if she wants me too...? 

Thursday night secret sets? I can help there too. 

Maybe this time one really has got past me. This year I don't even have next year's headliners already. 

I should hope you dont.... there is no Glasto next year sorry couldnt resist ha

So the main ones people seem to be listing...

Madonna
Green Day
The Stone Roses
Lady Gaga
Robbie Williams
Fleetwood Mac
Led Zeppelin
Gorillaz
Phil Collins

I'm guessing we can cross off Fleetwood Mac?

Well if led zeppelin can make the list then ABBA need to be on it as well

If they were up against Radiohead or even Foos maybe, but I think Sheeran is gonna poach a big portion of their crowd. I know they're not similar at all, but they would've done better to not be put up against the biggest act in the world.

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

Lol at least all of ABBA are still alive

[henry bear]

Probably nothing to do with it, but 25th June marks the 50th anniversary of 'All You Need Is Love'

While I agree that they should have up against Radiohead or Foo's. I still think they'll be a big appeal to the 16-30 year old blokes while their misses is at Ed Sheeran.

[Havors]

Stevie Nicks is my guess.... She is playing Hyde park a week or so after Glasto and nothing before...? 

That or Genesis. Green Day are booked up for the weekend I think. 

[Keithy]

She's persuaded Noddy and the lads to get back together and Slade are doing the Legends Slot.

One can dream anyway.... 

[babyblade41]

guns and roses ???

[Smeble]

Genesis would be huge, not on here maybe, but in the legends slot they would be huge

Could mark the occasion with a live simulcast that people can watch all round the world.

There's not a chance in hell that Phil Collins has been prepping his own band for the tour and Genesis. I realise that this thread is hitting peak speculation, but behave, people!
