Michael Eavis has told the BBC that James Brown is planning a big show for the Sunday evening at this years Glastonbury. The report also says he "gave a strong hint" that Oasis and Paul McCartney will also be playing.

Meanwhile, postings on a Prince fan website say he's definitely not playing. The same website correctly said he wasn't playing when rumoured last year.

So it looks like - with Oasis, Paul McCartney and James Brown - any of these headline acts could be playing the Sunday "oldie" spot.

Elsewhere, Daniel Bedingfield's manager told an Austrailian website that he's to play, and we're pleased to say that no less than Brian May has dismissed the Queen rumour as rubbish.
