Page and Plant playing with Grohl and the lads?

They've backed themselves into a corner a bit with this.  

Given the unlikelihood of them having something truly special up their sleeves all that'll happen is widespread disappointed faces on Xmas Morning when everyone unwraps their present to find only BeardFace Elbow and the lads inside doing their song about the window.

and what is that `unlikelihood` based on exactly? fuck me people have woken up on wrong side of bed this morning. chin up folks for all you know this could indeed be something incredible! why be negative?

they will be handing out a free Coldplay CD with a new tote bag when you enter the site

Yeah the odds are its a new frigging instalment or attraction and not even an artist! 

Or stage to go with the extra artists claim

Kasabian? Just had a new album come out. Headlined recently, so would/could be classed as a "big" secret. Not been suggested anywhere else so would tie in with EE believing they've done well to keep it under wraps.

OK.  In that case I hope it's Jimi Hendrix.

Kraftwerk definitely ruled out?

[kalifire]

Could well be Foos related. After all, in order to celebrate playing an extended set, they played an extended set. So perhaps they have something additional up their sleeves. 

Still think TayTay's a good shout. There's no doubt there would be demand from the festival and crowd. And Sheeran is probably the best shot they have of her agreeing to appear in some context. 

[HoTWire]

Orbital?

 

Slayer headlining The Park?

Kraftwerk is my dream

[Crazyfool01]

Whatever it might be it's got 126 people reading this thread at 9.30 am . And me trying not to drop my phone in the bath !! 

[ghostdancer1]

Elbow/Green Day/Gaga opening the Other/playing a secret set at the Park.

or maybe just Sheeran doing one of those too.

it'll be something underwhelming either way I'm sure.

Think you're mixing up being negative with being a realist. It may be something pretty big, but when have the Eavi's talks of stuff being 'extra special' in any year of Glastonbury actually been 'extra special'? Maybe this'll be the one time they really mean it, but I won't be expecting to be blown away when it's revealed.

Don't think so - I think Neil has repeated something multiple times like: they've turned down other festivals.  Sounds a bit flimsy

 

[brettredmayne]

Probably sadly take that and will explain why Neil has heard Robbies name been mentioned

Both of those things would be better than pretty much everything else mentioned in this thread, mind.

This was my first thought when I read the article... they've just had an album out. Obviously headliner sized so if they were going to do it as non-headliners they would need it to be hyped up massively.

Christ, can you imagine Emily saying there's a huge secret and it turns out we just get TWO Ed Sheeran sets. 

[liamium]

if it's not any of:

1. Bjork

2. K-Dot

3. some artificial sun/giant ball of nuclear fusion suspended over the site to guarantee roasting heat & light, baking the ground to a near impenetrable grandmother's rock-cake-like crust,

i'm not interested
