That was my first thought as well

An extra night on the Pyramid for Thursday?

(Yes I know all you insiders & obsessives have seen the planning notices blah blah blah  )

Probably reading far too much into it, but using the pic of the Pyramid might have something to do with it. Or I'm being daft. 

I don't think so. I mean if you were working there and had agreed to be hush hush, what is the one thing you would take a photo of?

Either that or the Saturday sub slot yeah but with the Saturday slot they've got to be careful of overshadowing Foo Fighters 

[SwedgeAntilles]

The 50% of The Beatles who are still alive playing together wouldn't be "huge"? 

[Roger1]

Could it be foos subbing and led zep slotting in, that would be huge

[Bradders]

If you're an Oasis fan who doesn't visit efestivals, Liam Gallagher would be "HUGE". I'm not saying that's all it is but you can't take much from one guy's opinion.

Was wondering where there were going to squeeze twice the bands in!

The fact that he's tweeting the pic of the Pyramid surely suggests there might be a clue in it somewhere. Wasn't there some odd activity with that wooden structure with walkways or something coming out of the front of the Pyramid stage that was spotted on the webcam this week, and a large black rectangle that could have been a screen? Is this anything to do with it? Surely the pic wasn't just because the secret is a big act on the main stage?

[Lucy92]

Anyone looked him up to see whether he's an audio engineer for a specific band?

Unless Lennon & Harrison were there too that would make it huge, the other two alone is just 'alright'.

Macca and Ringo doing 50 years of Sgt. Pepper in the would be pretty huge!

[Lucy92]

Could be a 'rise from the dead' style hologram performance? That would be huge!

I think it's because it's the pyramid stage and he wanted to take a picture of it, like every one of us would do.

I suggested this today at work, Freddie on screen and May and Taylor live.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Page and Plant and Paul and Ringo! Led Beatlez!

[billum]

If it really is HUGE then surely it's got to be some longed-for reformed band after a long time apart or something. Those candidates are the really exciting, and also unlikely, ones, but we've got the (half the) Beatles, the Kinks, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, REM, also would you say the Stone Roses?

[Steel city camper]

I'd love the stone roses but I'm going for Elton, someones going to now tell me he's playing some where else over the weekend

Yeah maybe this is something like it - if it's a hologram reunion, then maybe this week they were checking out the tech for it, and when the webcam went offline for a day they were doing the tests on the system so as not to spoil the surprise?

[FrancisH]

Literally huge, like a giant projection of Guy Garvey looming over the farm playing all the elbow hits.

[GlastoEls]

It would be nice if for once it was eFestivals huge, not real life huge!

BBC Glasto has just posted a "name the Kasabian lyrics" quiz on twitter...

I feel ill

[CaledonianGonzo]

The ghost of Elvis, a hologram of Bowie, a Kurt Cobain muppet and the resurrected corpse of Buddy Holly doing ABBA covers.

Can I update my prediction? I'm going to say Slayer on the Pyramid. They've started booking heavier bands again, it'd draw a huge crowd and they're playing festivals it looks like.

You can but you're mad.

Hard to say, people have different views of what is 'huge'. If it was The Stone Roses for example to me that's huge and I'd be grinning like a Cheshire cat for the next 6 weeks but others would think it's an anti climax

I'm sticking with The Kinks but I don't think the Macca suggestion is out of the question

I want Gaga but Roses at Glasto would be more than suitable instead.

[mufcok]

I very much doubt it's Kasabian, I wouldn't class a recent headline act from the last few years (bar the Stones) as huge. And I do like Kasabian.. a lot

I checked out the guys Instagram and he posted that same photo of the pyramid and the caption just says "a stage", no hint or reference to the big secret.
