Just posted this in another thread, very interesting

[morph100]

Disco legend collaboration?

New big name legend slot? Madonna or some other big old stadium filling artist?

a tribe called quest headlining west holts?

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

A mega legend

[Razza_bezza]

I think to make such a point of it atcq isn't it! The fact they haven't officially said Barry Gibbs is legend like they've announced previous years, could mean something aswell

[Lucy92]

I wonder when they'll announce it!!!

[mr gumby]

Return of Pieminister?

[MilkyJoe]

Chris Martin Super Group?

[morph100]

Stone roses or oasis playing legend slot?

 

[Wanderlei]

The Smiths!!!!!!

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Green Day? Gaga? A lot of people seemed quite convinced by the rumours circulating a few months ago. Sunday 25 June is still free for GD at least...

Stone roses great shout

Ed Sheeran secret set?

If that's what she's on about, I can let the cat out of bag if she wants me too...? 

Thursday night secret sets? I can help there too. 

Maybe this time one really has got past me. This year I don't even have next year's headliners already.

In the article they say that nobody knows about it, green day was quite well published but that's not to say that couldn't be it.

who knows, they've really pulled it out the bag this year and if it's another big act in a non headline slot then I've run out of credit for the bookers

Where's the secret set planned for? No interest in seeing him on pyramid but at a smaller place I might be tempted.

That's a fair point actually. I can't think of many acts that haven't been suggested/discussed on this forum. Emily's peaked our interest now, I hope it lives up to the inevitable hype*

 

* It's Coldplay, isn't it....?

[Badlands]

You'd think with her publicising it in an interview, that it will be an announcement as opposed to a secret set. It's where they're going to another big act in that's the puzzler. The fact they've not announced Bazza Gibbons as the legend may be a clue?

I'm not sure what she'd class as a 'really big surprise'. Gorillaz to do a secret set, is that really big? 

Could be a non musical surprise as well. Who knows 

[DropBeat]

The legend slot, surely? They always make a big deal about that, but this year strangely silent. Letting people assume it's Barry Gibb just helps keep the secret?

[Northtim]

She says sometimes she had to deny rumours - so Stone Roses or Daft Punk?  Thus eve Pyramid as no headline slots left.

 

Nah  it will be some shite like Robbie Williams

[Razza_bezza]

Fleetwood mac legends slot???

 

surely they wouldn't want another act they've desperately tried to get for years slip through their fingers like prince, life is so delicate 2 years is a long time at a ripe old age, like the mac crew... just a thought!?

Diana Ross? Was she ruled out?

 

I mean didn't Barry Gibb supposedly say last year that he was going to play but that she was already signed up for the legends slot.

 

She starts her tour of the US from the 28th.

That would be amazing but they'd have to be headlining surely?
