Not to be that guy, but that's a reasonably safe bet, given that there are almost no alternatives left! 😄

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there is a good chance it could be Friday

Yeah chances are the 4 will consist of:

 

1. Local band/choir on Sunday morning

2. Novelty act like Rick Astley/Bjorn Again

3. Interesting international act like Les Amazones D'Afrique/Master Musicians of Joujouka/Vieux Farka Toure

4. Well-known singer or musician like Mavis Staples/Rufus Wainwright/Ziggy Marley/Sophie Ellis Bextor/Jools Holland

 

I think there's a strong chance Gabrielle is one of them this year, she's got an arena tour booked next year, self-confirmed and hasn't been announced on any of the other stages.

I think the well known singer is bound to be Natasha bedingfield. Probably in the same slot as Sophie Ellis bextor last year

I thought James were going to be one of those 4 on the Pyramid and wasn't Pete Tong's Ibiza Orchestra listed on the initial leaked poster too?

Not impossible to be fair.  I think Gabrielle has self-confirmed, but obviously Bedingfield is back on vogue atm.  Unwritten would go off.

She did a cameo of this at Radio One Big Weekend and it got a big reaction.

Given the date of the last 4 Glastonbury's I'd say it's unlikely.

Aye that would be decent. I ha to go toilet during Ella Henderson's set at the exact point she brought out Natasha next and only got back for the end of their second song. I didn't know she was coming out or I'd have just powered through.

[Euphoricape]

I hope its Friday, I'm too busy tomorrow. Friday at 10am please.

[TiZuff]

lineup must be soon, few artists are adding their glastonbury days to their tour dates now.

[Ben7amin_]

Did it not already Leek that Ziggy Marley is opening the Pyramid one day I thought that was already known.

 

EDIT - Julian not Ziggy

 

I still think KOL will be a churnups style slot on Fri afternoon. 

 

No idea personally on the other 2 missing acts on Pyramid

[Ben7amin_]

They seem to have been going for that sort of type/era the last few years. Definitely an element of selling snake oil, I think.

[fred quimby]

Aye, said BBC will be releasing their website and schedule and what to watch when, so must be before or at the same time.

Ah ok cool. Video not working for me for whatever reason but based on someone reacting to it, must be working for others

Last year the BBC announced their coverage the day after the line-up announcement so not necessarily linked.

 

I guess it depends entirely on what they announce. Reading last year's press release, they could do it without the full line-up.

True but the BBC Glasto schedule has always been announced around the time of the full lineup drop - usually after it.

 

I think that news, and the fact that the lineup has been released on 30th May for 3 of the last 4 festivals show that the chances of it coming out tomorrow are pretty damn high.
