JP I think. She did WH last time.

It's a boo from me. I find WH much easier to see the stage, better place to stage a performance relying heavily on dance.

From that I can see Of Monsters and Men, Jake Bugg, Rival Sons, Idles and Kendrick showing up. I REALLY hope we get Kacey, 5th down on Pyramid before the rock slot? 

God, really hope Of Monsters... come back.

The Fog was on one of his too rare jaunts to Europe this year during the G and didnt emerge from the jungle.

Yeah I fear his appearance in ‘07 will be his only visit to the farm. He isn’t getting any younger.

Thom Yorke, The Specials and The Isley Brothers are my pick still 

The Specials would fit the ‘not in this current form’ description 

[MetaKate]

I know everything about everything but I'm not allowed to say but I will give you extremely cryptic  nonspecific hints to drive you insane. 

Okay you got me, I'm a psychology student doing a thesis and I want to see what makes you all snap.

Surely WH haven't neglected to book Twigs as a headliner one night, it's such an open goal.

She was absolutely sublime and mesmerising on Jools Holland show a few weeks ago. Must be on for Glastonbury next year. 

[Bisque]

Reckon someone like Chase & Status are there as Rebel Sound or RTRN II Jungle?

Now, I have nothing against The Specials, and would happily watch them in a nice afternoon slot, but the latter seems to fit more the definition of "go off" and merits the excitement of the OP! I remember there was some chat about Santana on here before, but can't remember why? Was it just because of the European dates or was there more info than that?

Someone mentioned Santana, then about 10 days later, European dates popped up which didnt suit. There must have been something in that though?

Re: Santana. I think the o2 show was advertised as ‘only UK show’.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Run The Jewels?

I can neither confirm or deny what you’ve said. One of them isn’t worth worrying about. The other one is definitely the best, wouldn't be out of place on a Sunday afternoon on the pyramid.

Isley Brothers or Cat Stevens?

[uscore]

Lizzo (Again)?

I'd be so shocked if she isn't there. Fits the bill in every descendible way.

Hope she's on an evening slot in WH/JP rather than a day slot on Other.

Cat cant do sunday. Friday is where he has the calendar gap before having the France gig on the 28th.

Only way Twigs would end up with a day time set is if she was in JP. Her current production pretty much needs it to be dark. So its that or a night slot on WH.  Ive seen her in a tent in the daytime before, but it wasnt a visual dependent performance and tour at the time that required it to be night time.

Ok, one has graced the pyramid a few times but not in this form. One could grace the pyramid and it would go off. 

That first bit makes me think of Noel Gallagher, but that would be an odd West Holts act

It’s Thom Yorke pals.

Dunno if Twigs would be back on WH - if not, my preference would be her topping the Park, which I think would be an amazing fit, but will almost certainly be clashtastic, so a JPT daytime set might be the best bet.

Also liking your logic here FF, gotta be Thom (hopefully on the Saturday... )

Would Twigs not headline the John Peel these days? Pretty big deal now and only about to get bigger.

Almost certainly, yeah. Just going to be a brutally clashy year innit.

Crowded House for the 'wouldn't be out of place on a Sunday afternoon on the pyramid"????

We are still talking about West Holts here, right?

Thom Yorke/Macca clash would be brutal. I think Thom on the Sunday against Swift makes the most sense

So Thom Yorke for the first. Not a clue for the second.

Damon Albarn, rather than Thom Yorke?

Edit: just read back and a few others have suggested the same. Don't really see TY as a WH act. Would be pleased to be wrong though.
