There's some account ('Glastonbury Updates') on Twitter claiming that there's a rumour doing the rounds about the William's Green slot being a "huge, Pyramid level act"... clickbait bollocks, or is something genuine doing the rounds?

There's something in it.  Follow @secretGlasto for all the information on the day! Not headliner level, though plausibly sub.

I would be really surprised if this happens. Any high-level band playing one of the only live music stages open on the Thursday would be a crowd control nightmare. 

They would basically need to close off all the routes into that field, from around 6 different directions to avoid a crush. Pulp was bad enough back in the day, and there's really only a couple of way into the park.

We've decided not to, but will tweet out on the day.

Based on what's been said seems like a possibility.

Also, in 2019 the Thursday slot was pale waves who are on the same record label - dirty hit with the same management company

In addition, Wolf Alice played that Thursday slot in 2015 also a dirty hit band. 

So the management must have a relationship with the stage bookers.

is it going to cause a chaotically large crowd? 

or is it a niche selection to a particular taste?

They have done that before, I can't remember who,  might even have been Maximo Park.

who's this then, brand new user alert 👀

[stuartbert two hats]

I'm probably going to get into trouble with the gang for saying what I have, sorry, can't answer any more questions, but suffice to say, it's pretty big (we genuinely worry about this kind of thing) and in WG, which is hard to close off.  I'm not going to see them, but loads of people do.

We've had a couple of tips from apparently different places saying the same thing, so you can feel reasonably confident that when the tweet goes out, it should be correct.

So, hive mind - what do we think about the other slots?

I don't know if Rag N Bone man has had a mention for a secret set. Touring and has gigs on 27th and 29th in uk?

[zeppelin]

I actually hope it's not someone I want to see as WG on Thursday is already enough of a nightmare 😅. 

[JSmurphy]

Lewis Capaldi?
