I honestly don't think this is going to leak. May be a proper surprise Wednesday. 

I think there's a twist in the tail yet. If Radiohead are indeed the sub, something could come out over the next few days with their UK shows. I'm sure Neil is hugely determined to get to the bottom of it before the announcement takes place

i had hopes late last week, but I don't have much hope now.

I am just going to throw something into the mix here for possible Adele sub-headliners. Anyone who's read, seen, heard interviews, or watched the fab Karaoke Carpool video with James Corden on YouTube, will know that that she is a huge fan of the Spice Girls. 

(In fact, fairly recently, when there was talk of them reuniting to do another tour, Adele even offered to replace Victoria who was, apparently, reluctant and too busy to do it.)

However, more likely than the Spice Girls would be the equally funtastic Take That who have just brought out a single with a band called Sigma. TT is also gig-ready because they're doing one of the BST days in London in July. And they've never done Glasto before either.

Just a thought to freak some of you out...!

Nah. We know the Friday and Sunday subs are Foals and Ellie Goulding. The Saturday sub is going to be an act of similar size

Do we actually know that though or is it just being assumed because nothing else makes sense? (Not followed the entire thread so genuine question)

Because when you put together something like this you want a line up that "makes sense" but sometimes if certain acts can only do certain days you go with the line up that's possible.

I'm in a dreamland where I think even the Strokes are likely to be on the line up somewhere.

If you are referring to my post about TT etc, I agree! They're brilliant live!

[FuzzyDunlop]

The Spice Girls would be good.....

 

 

Any positive reputation I have gained here will go pretty sharpish.

someone who knows these sorts of things has put his reasoning to me for why he thinks it's unlikely to be them. While it's far from anything certain, I reckon he's probably called it right.

Is that reasoning why they won't be subbing or are we giving up on the dream of them playing at all?

Wow you somehow made the Friday Pyramid headliner an even worse booking.

[ashtaylor1]

Reached out to the Blossoms guys to ask about this supposed knowledge of Kendrick playing this year. The drummer denied all knowledge and stated they wouldn't know anything like that. 

 

I'll leave my Kendrick obsession alone now as I believe that was the only slight bit of info we were basing him playing on.

Spice Girls, Take That and equality fantastic in one post. It's the end of days.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Just checked the clashfinder and it seems to be suggesting that Oasis are headlining the Friday....!!!!!!!!!

Where did this info come from?
