Despite attempts to loosen tongues with vast amounts of alcohol, we could only get one more big rumour for you!
(Oi ... you! ... to ensure no one is misled here, we need to state that this rumour has not come from anyone directly associated with Glastonbury Festivals, it is a rumour, it may not be true. But knowing the source, we believe it may well be.)
We've received information that Dr Dre will be heading to Worthy Farm this summer, and with Eminem already rumoured (and re-stated by this source), could it be that they're to appear together?
As we think we have the full listings for the Pyramid & Other stages (see below), and with few even rumoured for the Jazzworld Stage as yet, it's likely - if true - that they'd appear there, our guess would be on the Friday.
On the official Glastonbury website, some information has been released about the various areas of the Festival, and there news of a second dance stage for this year - the Experience. However, we think that is likely to be smaller than the main Dance Stage, so not suitable for such major acts.
Elsewhere, Super Furry Animals say they've pulled out of Glastonbury, saying that they can't find a soundman!?!. We've heard poor excuses before ...
nme.com has today reported that Stereophonics are still denying that they are to headline the Saturday night, despite persistant rumours - our understanding of the news piece being that nme don't believe the denials.
There is a full list of rumours - including what we think could be the full line-ups and running orders (in reverse) for the Pyramid & Other stages (well, before SFA pulled out) - available here.
Tickets for this years Festival are sold out (tho some people are reselling their tickets on eBay ... and the prices are coming down!), and this year everyone will need a ticket - £2,000,000 is being spent on new security measures (more than just a new much higher fence!) to stop the fence jumping of the past and secure the future of the Festival. Do the right thing - don't attempt to come without a ticket!
The confirmed line-ups will be exclusively revealed in The Guardian and Q Magazine on 19th June.
