Could definitely happen.

Love the poster, not sure on those secret sets though...

Hoping Doves play this time as well

Great effort there I think it's pretty realistic tbh, I would take that lineup all day long. Nice poster too. But I reckon Ian Brown, Glass Animals, DMA's and The Prodigy will all be in there too. Also, I know you are just predicting but hopefully Orbital don't clash with Macca - wanna experience them properly at Glasto! 

[Superunknown]

I know Emily said something about a big rock slot but come on, Aerosmith third down is just never happening.

[Guy Incognito]

A Kendrick/Nick Cave/Thom Yorke/Caribou clash is not okay. I'm really hoping that Thom is up against T Swift

Am hoping Cave is subbing but I think he'll be against Kendrick or Taylor. 

Really can't see Elbow sub headlining, still think Lana is made for the spot.

Not convinced that Coldplay won't play next year? Seems unlikely after what Chris Martin's said.

[uscore]

It also seems unlikely, after saying they'd do fewer secret sets due to safety and how it's impossible to keep it secret, that there'd be loads of secret sets of huge acts.

The other half would really like Lana to make an appearance, and I'd quite like an hours break so I concur.

What if they did over an hour subbing Macca? That I could see.

Me neither, but I can't see her (or Tyler) hanging around for that long after Primavera (and probably APE).

TBH they are the sub I feel is most nailed on at the moment. Their history with the festival, havent played in a while, released a new album (that from the reviews I have read was a bit of a return to form), michael loves them etc. And I would say they are probably a similar size if not a little bigger than Vampire Weekend last year

Neither am I but there are lots of regulars I reckon will be dying to play (and I realise I have missed Metallica off too who I wouldn't be surprised if they turned up)

I mean they aren't going to self confirm either. I can't see Chris skipping the 50th, and I think a Coldplay secret set would be more palatable than a guest appearance in someone elses set for most attendees.

Agreed, but after what they said about increasing capacity on the Pyramid I reckon they'd be alright (You could easily chuck Muse/Liam on there early doors too and it not be too bad imo). Plus John Peel for Killers seemed to work really well.

Honestly, Lana would fall flat on her face if she were to sub imo. That slot is incredibly hard to pull off and she doesnt have the hits/energy/star quality to do it well. I reckon people would get bored and lose interest very quickly. However, her in the dark on The Other with a good light show behind her could be very special (if she were to play)

Please apply for the Glastonbury act booker role

Can you not squeeze Biffy in somewhere? ? Unpopular opinion I know, but swap them for Nick on Friday night and that would be perfect!

Thats honestly one of the best park line ups i've seen. Would happily have it as its own festival. The amount of clashes is ridiculous. Pyramid is also ridiculously strong.

Put  DJ shadow on the sunday subbing RTJ  and that would be a a perfect sunday for me

Hans Zimmer -> Danny Brown -> Diana Ross -> Earth, Wind and Fire -> DJ shadow -> Run the Jewels   is basically porn.
