Posting this here again as it seems to belong here...........Maybe a thread merge should happen?

I reckon the Anthony & the Johnsons and De La Soul leaks on some of the line ups points to 2 of the slots being these guys, the same way N.E.R.D will play the pyramid on Friday as the "Special" Guests. I reckon that all 3 could not 100% confirm but will do and as such they will fill the "Special Guest" slots......Also Glasto love having something for us to go on about, so why tell us everything.........?..........This is all part of it.......

As for Placebo...........Well from certian reports they were just about nailed on so they may be the Saturday night Special guest in the Park with the above 2 playing the Friday slots........Placebo are big enough for Emily to say what she said, but not that big that they actually will cause an incident!!.........There will be no "MASSIVE" act in the park im afraid......ME nearly finished Glasto after the Roskilde incident so to tempt faith and have a "Radiohead", "Coldplay", "U2" play the Park would be silly..............

So..........

* Slot 1 Fri, 6th from top - De La Soul

* Slot 2 Fri, 4th from top - Anthony and the Js

* Slot 3 Sat, 3rd from top - Placebo

And on the Pyramid Stage on Fri, 5th from top........N.E.R.D.

Watch and see............ :)

is it likely to be the saturday slot she's talking about?

also, will I have time to watch pete and head over to the park afterwards if it is this slot?

will they stop people coming in after a certain point?

It has to be Metallica, Lars has said he wants to play Glastonbury this year (1st clue) but the organizers were worried about safety issuses (2nd clue) following the incidents at previous festivals. Metallica said they will play festival dates on their free weekends on the current tour, guess what - they are free that weekend and are in Europe (3rd & 4th clue). They have a long history of doing surprise secret gigs at festivals (5th clue). Knowing my luck they'll play and I'll miss it.

I guess I'm a detective and a Metallica fan.

Just me or anyone else thinking Who Cares?

Not going to waste my time waiting for a 'secret gig' read mystery gig, from someone I may or may not like.

Far too much going in Glastonbury to care about who may or may not playing. I know exactly who's playing somewhere else on site.

Frankly, it's a silly idea. Why announce a secret gig a month in advance?

    • Plenty of good stuff this month. Very difficult choice, but I'm going with some of those I've listened to most (the sunny weather may also have been influential)...   1. The Coral - 388 2. Kurt Vile - Philadelphia's Been Good to Me 3. The Lemon Twigs - Look For Your Mind!   Others I've been enjoying... Laurie Anderson's live album, Broken Social Scene, Pigeon, The Black Keys, etc
    • Yesterday was was Primavera is all about and a reminder of why I come back every year. I saw 9 acts, very diverse in terms of genre and vibe, and most of them were great.  Highlights:   The Cure - have wanted to see them for years. Finally caught them and it was immaculate. Robert Smith's vocals at his age are incredible. The band sounded exactly like the albums which is impressive. 2.5 hours with basically no filler somehow.  Viagra Boys - what a front man! So much energy. Non stop moshing. Sound was great, vibe was top notch. Again 10/10 for me.  Rilo Kiley - basically what pipan said. Not a huge crowd but nice vibe, good sound. Different from the other acts I saw.   I also enjoyed the late night electronic stuff with Aurora Halal and KI/KI being fun. Caught some of Skrillex before Aurora Halal and it was cool in it's own way but not really my thing so we left.
