The Park Special Guests: Rumour Round up

[JayJay314]

are you trying to get Florence back for the 10th year in a row??? she's booked for a gig in Central Park (NY) on the friday i believe. nice try...

[devonhammer]

can you elaborate ? would love to see it happen...

[mr flow]

Found it! and not that obscure a stage, Adele played The Park (no less) in 2007, Sunday 24th and above Laura Marling on the lineup. Though I think it may have been the Guardian Stage I'd heard of her being on.

[Gnomicide]

Robert Plant.

[fullfathom5]

^ Frank Turner's definitely not playing unfortunately.

[The Roses]

Or maybe he was watching the gig?

[wainyd]

So just to summarize, so far we don't have a bloody clue who it is, apart from the bands who are busy, it could literally be anyone who has had a top 40 hit!

[Craigston]

I think on the Friday night, White lies will do another set. I hope so as I'll be missing them on the other stage for elbow on the Saturday.

[dancingdaisy09]

Ce-Lo Green Saturday? Just throwing it in there as he is clashing with U2 on Friday.

I still want Pulp and the Arctic Monkeys though.

Think we're more excited than anyone about being together again. As Russell is fond of saying, the excitement in pulpable.

Could be Interpol? They're playing a festival in Denmark on the 12th and then in Mexico on the 28th so easily a big enough gap in touring. And 3rd from top is probably where they would play on the Pyramid or Other so I could see it happening.

Surely it must be Pulp!

[In transit]

Am I right in assuming that Neil knows the answers to all these and just doesn't tell.

[Pooog]

Has anyone mentioned the Manics yet? Probably not the 'headliner' appearance tho.

Sorry if it's been mentioned already.

Yeah, the Manics can be okay but Nicky Wire is a prize tosser.

[shineongas]

His heart's in the right place (well usually)!

[elbongo]

Lamb for sure... 100% no doubt bout it

Nuff said!

Has Brandon Flowers been mentioned yet.

When there was that mini twitter leak just before the line up was announced, the reporter mentioned the clashes being 'a bit of a killer'.

[Jackmypie]

I think Subways are in with a chance, also I would love to see them.

That's if they were to do the smaller slot.

[drewsstrat]

I'm hearing strong whispers that it pulp or at least jarvis on saturday. Third hand, but someone at pulps label said so apparently at 9.30pm. That seems later than the advertised slot, but may be logical if big crowds expected as headliners will be taking the stage. (interestingly my predictive text on phone just inserted eavis instead of jarvis.. perhaps a prediction he will do happy birthday again!)
