"Really big secret"

just because they have it listed somewhere for Wednesday doesn't mean they're playing that day. it regularly happens that bands list the first day of a festival but play a different day. i'd be 99.9% sure that alt-J and Boys Noize won't play on Wednesday.

 

Not 100% though ey? I like those odds!

[CaledonianGonzo]

Alt-J are definitely playing the Saturday.

This may have already been posted, so apologies if I am repeating this, but indications point to Alt-J playing on the Wednesday, along with Emeli Sandé and Boys Noize so might the music start on Wednesday???

It's just where they've listed the first day of the festival in their schedule. They deffo won't be playing on Wednesday 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

An Alt-J set wouldn't be a "really big surprise" anyway. They're literally on the poster.

[TheSilence]

Yeah, surely if music was to start on Wednesday then it wouldn't be fair to charge the same for Wednesday and Thursday tickets.

Maybe there genuinely is a whole new area with a stage that can take significant bands - this is part of how they're putting on twice as many acts as normal, in EE's words

given that the poster had a normal amount of acts, and every single area announced so far has about the normal amount of acts as previous years, the only way they're going to have twice as many is if there's dozens of stages still to be announced. and as that that would cost twice as much, and we have absolutely no indication of anything significant extra so far, is unlikely at this stage.

Emily's "twice as many bands" is clearly just PR hype bollocks, in fairness.

we might get a handful of unkonwn bands/DJs playing small tents in the new Saxon Market area, but that's about it I'd imagine.

Might be that they are just adding "bonus" days with limited music. View attached.

It'll just be what they've got on their website. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Well...one thing that does seem to tell us is that DJ Shadow isn't headlining West Holts.

Emeli Sande's website has a default date of 21/06 for Glastonbury. It also has her down to play V Festival at Chelmsford twice, on the same day, and not Stafford. I don't think they'd piss off alt-J or Emeli fans with Thursday coach tickets by pulling that.

Wouldn't they have to have their license altered to permit 'loud' music on the Weds and Thurs, I thought that their licence only permitted lower levels of noise on those days, and wouldn't we be aware if the license was changed?

Haven't been able to get on here for a little while, but it's quite nice (in a way) to see I haven't missed anything. Seemingly we're all none the wiser about what this big reveal is...

Haven't missed anything??? Just go back 100 pages and you'll see you're right, you've missed nothing.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Have you missed Wally Brando?

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

If you charged around like a ferret on speed for 5 days I reckon you'd still be lucky to realistically catch about 5% of the acts on at Glastonbury, I can see absolutely no benefit to anybody involved in double stages/extra stages to squeeze anymore than is normally available onto the lineup.

I've got to visit the site next week.

Will have a mooch about and report back.

If I see anything secret I obviously wouldn't even consider posting on here

as it's news outta Pilton - and in all the years I've been running efests it's been by-far the worst place for accurate info - my take is that it's likely to be wrong.

So where is the best place to get info from then ?
