"Really big secret"

[Sparxuk]

Hey newbie here!

I had a dream last night that when my tickets arrived there was a flyer with them, that said that the jam were headlining a new stage on the Thursday night, followed by a rudimental dj set

 

wont happen but just wanted to document it somewhere just in case it does!

Hey, welcome to the forum, @Sparxuk. The Jam would be so cool, even on a stage that already exists. I reckon I have a little daydream about this roughly once a week.

Not read all 131 pages, but thinking along the lines of a big enough to be seen as a big secret, small enough to play JP and booked around six months ago could it be David Brent & Foregone Conclusion

Six months ago would tie in with the couple of dates they played last year, and the Sunday works for Ricky Gervais's stand up dates (Dublin on Saturday, nothing on Sunday)

30,000 people with lighters in the air and swaying to Equality Street.

You've charmed me. I would bloody love it to be them.

Oh I forgot to add. This friend of ME was the guy who told us it was the Who playing that year. We dismissed this as they were due to play in Paris. Low and behold they played. So I now take what he says as the truth

As you were all apparently more drunk than me last night given recent comments i thought id quote this

My sympathies are with your livers

Not necessarily saying it's relevant, but this article on Somerset Live about the loss of the Growler food stall, the owner of the stall says that according to what he's heard, they're removing a whole line of stalls to the right of the Other stage.  

 

Could be making room for a bigger audience, or changing the layout between the Other Stage and the Glade or the Old Railway Line.   http://www.somersetlive.co.uk/whats-on/food-drink/glastonbury-2017-shepton-mallet-businessman-69061

Which we think is that new area Cloud 9 thingie is gonna be situated - possibly??

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

On think it's been discussed a fair bit a few pages back, there is definitely some sort of re-org/ new area going there, although there could be an element of saving face with regards to that being the only reason. I've seen new vendors posted in the confirmed food vendors thread who have never been at Glastonbury, so if they really wanted the Growler stall there, surely they'd just relocate them?

Ah really? That's all i use to eat. What the hell am I suppose to do now? Go to the left hand side of the other stage for food? 

This is a serious question. 

[Fork_UK]

There's also this reply to the article on Facebook, suggesting the boss of the stall didn't want to come back anyway, or already knew they were changing things last year:  https://www.facebook.com//posts/1387420921280581?comment_id=1387424754613531&comment_tracking={"tn"%3A"R9"}

As far as I can recall there were very few decent food stalls to the right of the stage anyway. Plenty of good ones to the left though.

Oh, I've never had a Growler and probably never would, considering there is so much better stuff to eat than a chip butty, but it's kinda fun, piecing together little things to work out what the secret is!

Tent eh ! I can think of one act that would benefit from a tent !!!

If after all of this speculation Harry Styles ends up being this massive secret ill be distraught. Don't get me wrong he's undoubtably a massive name but just after all of these names spoken about be a bit gutting if he ends up being it

dunno if anyone suggested it, but what about Florence and the Machine for a secret slot.

big name, friends of the festival, Florence is usually on-site as a punter when not playing elsewhere.

probably not Sunday 5pm in JP, but Friday at The Park perhaps?

Just the usual Somerset Live reporting on baseless rumours that have been all over social media. Saves them the bother of doing anything that could be considered journalism.

I like the  way they make the songs more local:

"And after all, you're my Wookey Hole."
