Fridaynight sub clues - outsiders help?

[efcfanwirral]

That's annoying - no announcement! got to take my chances on missing courteeners in case it's someone I like and be kicking myself if it's not. Will we at least get a time they're coming on do you think??

[efcfanwirral]

I'm fairly sure it's Fleetwood Mac. I saw official weather and news updates yesterday near the Park saying the Mac flew into Bristol airport. This was yesterday evening. Also spoke yesterday to a girl on a merchandise stall who turns out to be Emily'S niece. She said it's not Taylor Swift but would not be drawn on the guests. Be so chuffed if it's true.

They're at the O2 tonight so can't be them.

[eFestivals]

Unless Neil swoops in, I don't think I'm going to get this one. So many people are 'sure'. So, so many names flying around.

Well played Emily.

I'm reading but I've got nothing useful to say and I don't think I'll get anything

If the Strypes are now playing Saturday on Other. Who are they replacing and why? Has someone on the Other been bumped to Friday Pyramid?

That's it then. I'm getting so many conflicting reports I can't see how I'll be able to tell when I'm getting the truth. I don't have a network of known contacts like you do at eFests - just people I've never heard of giving me tips on Twitter and here.

It's fun chasing down these acts Neil, but blimey it's a lot of work! Hats off to you guys

The quote from EE says they were not due to play this year...

Azealia Banks was in that slot. She's not big enough to sub Pyramid and she's not band. Oddly nothing on Twitter about her pulling out, well not yet anyway.

[eFestivals]

I saw a supposed other stage lineup months ago that had the stripes on it... They were about the only wrong band on that list when the lineup was announced

Someone playing higher up then?

Just guess work. Probably very wrong.

Thats all we've got though.

To be precise, the article says that, but not her quotes.  Remember when Sky ran an article saying the Pyramid wasn't on Worthy Farm?  They may have misunderstood her.

Time will tell. Not very much time either!

[DomDom1984]

What about Faith No More?

[laps100]

XFM have just said that Glastonbury are trying to keep the sub a secret. Not a great source but i reckon we wont find out.

If i was there i wouldnt gamble on going to the pyramid if i had somewhere else i wanted to be. I'd be at West Holts or the Park. So much good music tonight.

Have fun everyone!!!!

But at some point that band have to arrive at Worthy Farm, and then people will start to talk properly.

... If its a new band and not someone who is already playing.

[DomDom1984]

It's a new band. That much has been confirmed, has it not?

[laps100]

New to the Pyramid i thought. Not new to the festival.

[pryce]

or its someone underwhelming and the only way to get a crowd is to keep it secret so people will turn up in hope for someone big

 

and then stick around and not bother with leaving for someone else

[al_coholic]

Have we ruled out Stereophonics?

[stuartbert two hats]

Have we ruled out Stereophonics?

Yes

New to the Pyramid i thought. Not new to the festival.

[ICGenie]

New to the Pyramid i thought. Not new to the festival.

But also a band that isn't already billed to play.

[Sam.]

Has Neil hedged his bets anywhere yet?

[kingcrawler]

I started a thread on this yesterday but Ben Howard's pulled out of Rock Werchter tonight so maybe he's pulled out and everyone else has been bumped with The Strypes slotted in early on.

[Chiefski]

If they are trying to keep it a secret, could it be due to the act having booking obligations elsewhere?
