We can't be more than 10 days away from the full announcement.

Agreed, because we're only 29 days away from the festival!!!

Gotta ask - are you genuinely a big Shaggy fan or are you just seeing it as a bit of a laugh with a couple of great songs thrown in? Shocked at the Shaggy love on here. I mean, I love Shaggy, but as my Sunday headliner?

For our group it's more that (so far) we were really starting to get desperate for a Sunday headliner. We aren't interested in what's know at the moment - Ed, BBK, Metronomy, possible Justice etc.

So while we would not ordinarily have had Shaggy down as our headline act, he's essentially going to save the Sunday night (as it stands).

I know a mate of a mate who helps out at Glastonbury, can't tell you too much but the big announcement is DEFINITELY Daft Punk.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Huge if true.

[TiZuff]

you can't tell us too much other than exactly what it is(n't)

[squirrelarmy]

Daft Punk are starting a new tour in July, a warm up gig at Glasto does sound feasible.

Now that is news, Gnomy.

Thank you!

Edit - just seen that they liked my tweet to them, essentially begging for some techno on the Spider, to redress the shameful neglect of the Mother Of All Dance GenresTM in the line-up this far!

That's the one supporting Macca and Ringo playing Sgt Peppers isn't it?

Rumour I've heard is that the DaftLads and McRingo are going to be teaming up to play French House versions of Beatles songs - All You Need Is Digital Love, Robot Rocky Raccoon, Get Back, Lucky, Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except For Me And Da Funky

And so on and so forth.

Daft Punk hologram alert

[CaledonianGonzo]

Those are John Lennon and George Harrison holograms - just that they're wearing robot helmets so you can't tell that it's them.

[Simpo]

My prediction:

T+C today

Arcadia Wednesday

Full lineup Friday, ready to dig into over the long weekend!

I hope we can get T+C out of the way today. I enjoy popping there from time to time, but it's not an announcement I get hyped by at all. Let's get that out of the way and look forward to Arcadia + the biggie.

T+C today

Arcadia Weds

Full lineup Fri?

Lennon in a robot helmet and Harrison with a dog mask I heard.

Fully expect the stage / times to come next week rather than this one.

We've had no blue or yellow chicken tip off yet!

This seems to fit perfectly to be honest. Arcadia is pretty much nailed on Weds after that Tweet, and with T&C overdue... I don't think they'd make us wait the whole BH weekend for the full lineup. 

[briddj]

Depends, though, if the Drive-In cinema will get its own announcement, which is likely if Pilton Palais did.
