i do hope this is true! whilst these leaked set times have a lot of oddities / gaps etc in them which makes them look quite suspicious, a secret Park headliner would be a fantastic / exciting way to end the festival. i'm really not bothered about any of the headliners that night so would happily go along to see who it is. even if it ends up being somebody crap i can just stroll back to the Other field and catch The xx

i really doubt it'd be Travis. they're far too low on everybody's radars these days for many people to give a fuck. imagine standing, waiting for a band to walk on, and then on comes Travis. it'll be somebody more substantial - maybe even a Pyramid headliner sized band (i know they've said there won't be any secret acts of that size anymore, but i think that because they'll be up against other headliners, the safety risk is a lot less)

I wouldn't worry about it too much - Radiohead and Pulp secret sets in 2011 were both leaked well in advance on the day on the interwebs. I don't see why this year would be any different.

(However, if the secret headliner is Goldfrapp, that's the end of my festival nicely planned right there - Cat Power and Goldfrapp would do very nicely thank you)

If I could choose I'd pick Grinderman. There's no way they could do the Nick Cave slot and then scoot over to The Park for another full set as Grinderman though, surely?

AFP are the obvious favourite IMO.

I'm really hoping for MBV - As someone has already mentioned, Hop Farm is cancelled so they've got a UK festival shaped hole in their summer schedule (they were exclusive for Hop Farm wern't they?). They're legendary enough for it to be a notable booking but not so popular as to cause health and safety risks ala Pulp.

This might just be wishful thinking on my part - I've always said my dream Glastonbury gigs would be SFA, Brian Jonestown Massacre, or My Bloody Valentine headlining the park :)
