"Really big secret"

[CaledonianGonzo]

At the minute I wouldnt say they're any more likely to be the surprise guest than Liam Gallagher or Elbow.

But all of them are more likely than most of the other names being bandied about.

It might be.  I hope so.

I'm guessing that they'll have arrangements in place for tourdates that guests can't make e.g. some hired hand rapper to take the place of De La Soul, Del TFHS, etc.

For Damon's set at latitude he had Kano for Clint Eastwood I believe, could see it happening again

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Congratulations everyone

[CaledonianGonzo]

Kano also showed up for the Syrian Orchestra last year.  I don't think the logistics to put together a show are insurmountable.

Has anyone mentioned Kylie? She hinted in December at a 2017 tour.

 

Probably, everyone else has been

More in hope than anything other than a glastonbury shaped hole and previous ramblings re playing the festival.

I'm someone suggested this could happen at The Park with the Phillip Glass lasers.

I'm in!

I said this on about page 20 I reckon, along with everyone else I have mentioned lol

I would love this ! Almost as much as the KLF

100 pages, 2,500 posts, 120,000 views and still absolutely fcuk all.

What an unbelievable waste of time.

Maybe the real big secret is the friends we made along the way.

[ClementsMike]

Id put Elbow, Gorrilaz, Kylie all in the scope of could be on the next poster anyway, so no big secret or suprise. Even Gaga really, but I can't think she is the scret after all the talk about her thats been publicised, Emily said noone had guessed so that doesn't stack up.

I'm keeping expectations high, so am looking for the legends slot to bump Gibb off to acoustic or avalon and I want a straight run of Sgt Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band performed by Macca, Ringo, Noel and Liam followed by a half hour mixed set of Beatles and Oasis best loved anthems. 

That be ok?

I'm not sure who did Dirty Harry at Glastonbury (and the MEN later that tour), but even I thought they were awful.

You cheesy fuck

As it's been suggested in here that the 'big secret' might be REM, I thought I'd just mention there's an hour's special on 6music this sunday from 1-2pm, of an interview with Stipe & Mills. You never know, there might be a clue or two.

There's some preview clips here:-

I'm not sure that I dig that hobo look.

[jparx]

Neil you saucy minx.

[wozwebs]

Well that's going to add about 10 pages to this thread within an hour!

[Franky]

No more talk of Gorillaz please, lets not jinx it eh.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I heard a trailer for that REM show and IIRC there's a clip of the interview where they say they're never reforming

I was the secret London show in march and they played the new album in full with Most of it being unheard and everyone had a blast. I think the 2010 slot was so long ago it's unfair to judge them based on that and if they are the secret, whilst I'm not too fussed as seeing them at their own festival, it'll be a fun set

I was at that gig as well, it was brilliant and I hated when they played in 2010.

 

The new album has a lot more energy, which was lacking in 2010

[wozwebs]

Yep - in this video Stipe says they will never reform

If it is Gorillaz we need to remember that they'd only have an hour and a quarter tops for their set, this should mean a much leaner set than 2010.

If they brought the big guns to a shorter set - Eastwood, Dare, Stylo, Feel Good Inc, 19/2000 and the new singles then it could be great.

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

For me it's one of Gorillaz, Gaga or Collins.

What makes you so sure it isn't Liam Gallagher or Elbow?

I could see Elbow been one of the Park guests but not the 'big secret' she's referring to. They play Glastonbury every few years anyway, she'd be setting up for a huge anticlimax if it is them

Liam I guess can't be ruled out

Hans Zimmer on the sunday? Would be epic

Took Mrs Moth to see his show last month, absolutely incredible. Had his core musicians but most of the back lines and the whole of the choir were local. On the basis it's not a whole orchestra travelling round... feasible if a bit tricky with European dates either side.
