the cynic in me cant help but believe that we are deliberately being spoon fed false information by people on the inside who know its Prince because if it leaks it wont happen.

if this is the case keep covering, because good god it better be prince!

how / what / when / who ?

From where i'm sat I'd say it could only possibly be the other way around, but there you go.

Not that I think anyone is feeding me falsies, tho anything is possible.

So do we have any idea when we're getting any announcement? Not necassarily the 3rd headliner.. but a nice poster or list of other bands that are playing? As someone said earlier.. people on Twitter are moaning a lot about lack of announcements.

Unless 7 or 8pm tonight, it won't be today, but if what Neil has said is true it does make you wonder why they didn't put the poster out with TBA for the other headliner

I'm not suggesting that's coming from you at all, but, whether sources / glasto HQ are sending out dead end info from the top to their usual outlets / pr to cover things.

ive never seen it be so cryptic or hidden before.

My opinion would be why would they be going to such lengths to keep it hidden if its not him, and somebody who would be not as well received / or be a let down if the masses think its him again....

eg, if after all this is Flo or something

hehehe, this is all very similar to Kremlinwatching during the cold war. Trying to work out who's in and who's out, basically on the strength of fuck all.

To anyone mentioning GnR, shame on you, shame on you. Axl Rose is a world class tube, you really want his antics?

Open to a fully reformed GnR one day. Slash, Duff and Izzy in tow. Axl Roses Travelling Band of w*nkers however can do one.

Personally can't see it being announced tonight. Don't they generally take the site offline for a day or so and just have the line up on the homepage?

With the fact lots of people will be paying their tickets off by following a link from the official site I can't see them doing that on the final day that balance's need to be paid.

Of course I may be wrong though.

Hands up .. Who'd take Flo and her machine right now as the 3rd headliner if it meant we got a line up tonight?

(This could be a bargaining tactic used in future to ease the pain of a weak booking!)

Nope. No way. Not a fucking chance

In a heartbeat*

*disclaimer - I am unlikely to watch the pyramid headliner(s) whoever they may be, so this was a no brainer

Yes! Saw them a few years back and he came on very late, stopped the gig twice after being bottled, walked off stage and out of the arena and off down the street! Before he came back 45 minutes later and finished at 1am. Whats not to love about that?!

Gig of the year.

Justin Timberlake perhaps?

Finished his tour three months ago. Gone off to be a Daddy now.

Some good and valid points here.

I've found the lack of communication in general from the festival this year rather odd. The balance window had come and (nearly) gone with barely a mention on the official site.

Or risk the ginger prick turning up 90 minutes late and only being able to do a 20 minute set before curfew

I sincerely doubt any festivals would willingly put them on their bill in their current guise. The debacles of DL06 and R&L10 have no doubt made them unbookable.

for that to be true, we'd have had lost of false rumours. We've had nothing hence the desperate Stone Roses to headline based on who Emily follows and other assorted 'signs'.

It's been a complete media blackout. There's been no info - dead end or otherwise.

    • Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
