Can we strike a deal where you let me in front of u if it's the national? I'll cry and sing and promise I'll leave quietly before the Foos so you get your spot back

You can have my spot, I won't be needing it when the National and Foo Fighters are on. I will be too busy dancing to the Jacksons :-D

Right I've not been on here for a bit. Can someone sum up the last 35 pages because I really can't be armed to read it all!

Lots of guesses. Barry Manilow? PINK FLOYD? LED ZEP?! KATE BUSH?!?!?!  

....It's probably Coldplay

Oh, and then some silly folk slagging off The National.

I think "we still have no f***ing clue" about sums it up.

[Franky]

Told you. 

[Time Being]

Probably worth mentioning that given the success of the secrecy, a non-British act is more likely.

Depeche Mode - sing Ed Sheeran, just in case you've missed him

Hats off to Emily!

Bet she's wetting herself laughing reading this thread.

 

(Hey Nick, let's say in the next interview that we have a big secret. That'll send the Internet , the BBC and especially eFests into meltdown. Stick some Thatchers in the fridge x )

It can only be one thing im thinking now.

This lot are getting back together....ahhh nu metal...my old friend haha

 

SOAD...? Ok, now I'm just in fantasy land, but they are over here and maybe also have to be kept a secret until after Download.

And on the subject of nu-metal, have you seen this article?

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2017/may/09/20-years-nu-metal-rap-rock-korn-kerrang

Probs best you don't read the comments. The Guardian commenters seem to hate nu-metal just as much as they hate Glastonbury. It's enough to make you want to take it into your Dad's garage and smash it with a hammer

Succinct. I like it.

Has this thread heard from Neil recently ? 

[Penrhos]

Wonder if they're going to put someone special on "The Park" for its anniversary?

Not for 8 hours...and then only to take the piss out of Bernie Sanders/The Colonel. 

I don't know how he's managed it. I can't stay away! Kinda glad now for the 6 hr time difference so I can do all the work I should have been doing earlier while the UK gets some shut eye ..oops!

Aside from who this act is...how many days of this do we think they're going to put us through??

More likely to put "someone special" on The Park for its anniversary.

Emily's definitely hinted at it so yeah I'd expect a couple of reasonably big special guests etc.

I believe EE has hinted as such in other interviews 

[Penrhos]

Three possibilities -

1) Announcement just before the "Secret resale" of last refunded tickets so everyone buzzing about it.

2) Once last of tickets sold out - to rub it in for those without tickets.

3) Hold on as long as possible to build up hype (but not so long it is an anti-climax).

It's a fan meetup thing, they meet in Glastonbury every year for her birthday. Been doing it since 1989.

Yeah I just read that. She was one of my guesses so I'm sticking with it.

That seems a little creepy to me 

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

I know that it'll not be universally big news but maybe it's that they have finally found my self respect and my dignity, both of which went awol the last time that I was at Glastonbury. They're such little tinkers, them two.
