Sadly that won't happen if they're at The Park!

I'm half expecting it now. Definately going to go in good time to check it out. Only thing is, if it's not Pulp I will miss Morrissey and be very upset about that!

arghh!! I need to get to glasto!!!!

Jarvis' twitter also seems to hint at a glasto appearance. pulp on the park would be just perfect

 He doesn't have a twitter...?

Damn. knew there was something I should have asked today!

Jarvis does not use Twitter (or Facebook). He said this matter of factly (in passing almost, so highly unlikely that he was pretending/''lying'') to one of his interviewees on his show a few weeks ago.

i doubt he would have said anything anyway otherwise it would soon become common knowledge over the internet. I reckon if Pulp do play at glastonbury it will be kept secret right until the end

If Pulp aren't playing, would they find out who is?

 

Do you think they'd be able to say which day and where if they are?

Any news?

Just double-checked and Jarvis definitely isn't doing the Sunday Service from Glasto, unlike last year. This could mean he's wanting to distance himself from the festival with Pulp not playing, or because they've fallen out over money. BUT, on the other hand, whenever he's playing live with Pulp, he doesn't do the show that weekend. So who knows?!

Because it makes them look good that they can get great acts to play on the sly. They had half of Radiohead last year playing secretly. I'd like to think Pulp would do it because it has a special place in their hearts.

Well I'm losing it every day at the moment! The fact they wouldn't allow any footage filmed at IOW makes me think they're just in it for the money. Oh well

What about the ominous "Special Guests" entries in the Park?

I am pretty darn sure it will happen.

A major hunch.

I really hope they'll play the saturday special guest slot at the Park, I think I'll be there.

Aaarrggh!

Actually, scratch that. There's zero minutes between Coxon and The Walkmen too; and there's no way Tama Impala will play for 90 minutes.

Anyone have any idea how long it takes to wheel out four neon letters onto a stage?

If they do play on the park stage then the whole production will have to be scaled back. Ie- won't take too long to set up!

And what did Eavis say ? :)

Sounds very promising, thanks a lot.

Yes, of course.

Some people say the same things on eFestivals forums :

I'm beginning to doubt the Radiohead bit, as are others. Perhaps Yorke DJing?

 Maybe Radiohead are booked for 2013?

I'm gonna go to both of the Special Guest Park slots...I'd be very upset if Radiohead played outside of that.

Also, I would be wary of missing Friday on the Park expecting Pulp to be on the Saturday....

He was asked about them playing and said he wouldn't be drawn on it, because earlier he'd said Emily had warned him not to be saying too much. But he did say outright that Stevie Nicks wasn't playing. The general rule with Eavis seems to be if he doesn't deny someone's playing, then they probably are. Someone else on eFestivals claimed earlier that they were with one of Pulp's roadies drinking and they also said they were there.

Pulp's Twitter just now:

Thanks for all the excitement over the first few shows. Who knows what will happen next?

YEP!

Definitely. They don't film at the Park

How many clues do people need?! No they're not in Poland

Soz am celebrating a mate's birthday...with champagne....well for those of you who are going, I hope they play for you.

Well he has to deny it, otherwise it won't happen

Drowned In Sound seem to reckon they're playing - http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/4142967-dissers-recommend-who-to-see-at-glastonbury-2011

They showed that on tv last week and it was repeated on Mon, plus it's viewed as one of the most iconic performances so I'm not sure that makes too much difference.
Either way, it looks like the rumours are growing stronger.

 Maybe Bono will fall off his bike and Chris Martin will choke on his celery and  Beyonce will get wedged in a doorway and they'll headline for three nights 

Someone must know by now.  Surely a lanky middle aged man with a beard and specs had been spotted wading around Glastonbury this morning.  Well I suppose that wouldn't be conclusive.

 

Guys, just had a Pulp related dream. You know what that means. Expect news soon. X

Oh. Told you.

Can we expect any kind of broadcast from The Park...radio or anything? I know TV is totally out of the question.

Just posted on Pulp's Twitter : "Pulp are hovering above. Get thee to the Park. x"

What a surprise (!).

Yeah, 6 Music were live at the Park Stage briefly. DYRTFT kicking things off now.

Oooh, a track! Aren't we lucky? (Sorry...very sarcastic, but am feeling hard done by and sorry for myself right now.)

Mis-Shapes on 6 Music NOW...

I've uploaded it to the baritalia2005 Yahoo account (320kbps MP3). Enjoy

nme.com reports:

Pulp returned to Glastonbury festival this evening (June 25) to play an epic set on The Park Stage, billed as 'special guests' at the event.

Frontman Jarvis Cocker made an impassioned speech about the festival during the show, which saw thousands of fans flock to the area at the most northern part of the Somerset site. It was the returning Britpop band's fourth appearance at Glastonbury, having played there in 1994, 1995 and 1998.

It was only fully revealed this morning that Pulp were due to play the bash, with Arctic Monkeys and The Killers some of the band names that had tongues wagging about potential star guests. Yesterday Radiohead played the 'special guests' slot at The Park.

When the band arrived on stage the sun was beating down on the site in stark contrast to the lashes of rain that had fallen there the previous day and night. "We couldn't think of anything to get you so we brought the sunshine," Cocker quipped before opener 'Do You Remember The First Time?' .

The singer later made reference to the news that police were hoping to test the sewage at the festival to find out which drugs, if any, the punters there had been indulging in. "They wanted to take samples from the toilets to see if there's drugs in there," he explained. "Firstly, who's going to take that sample? Secondly, fuck off. Everyone's in a field having a good time."

The band's setlist veered off course from their recent comeback shows, and included 'Acrylic Afternoons' and 'Live Bed Show', which the frontman explained the band hadn't played in a very long time. But they also found time for plenty of classics including 'Disco 2000', 'Sorted For E's And Wizz' and closer 'Common People'.

"Thanks Glastonbury, obviously it's been a very important place for us," the singer said near the end of the show. "When we played in '95 things took off for us and we went in a strange orbit around the earth, and now we're back home in one piece."

He added: "When we played in '95 I told a speech, 'If you want something to happen enough then it actually will.' If lanky misshapes like us could headline Glastonbury anyone could do it. Although that sounds corny it's true, it's in all of us. This is what this festival is about, it's bigger than a festival, it's a feeling.

"This is our fourth Glastonbury, who knows, it would be nice to do five."


Too right it would! Two years to write, record and release a new album to headline Glasto '13!

Awww...Live Bed show! Hope it was the extended mix!!

Edit - Found this one on Youtube. Disco 2000.

I don't think Live Bed Show was in those leaked set-lists after the Toulouse gig so potentially hope for other songs that haven't been mentioned.
I was actually surprised that Live Bed Show was originally left-out of the summer setlists. It's always been a perennial live staple since Different Class, along with Sorted. I still think TIH should have a bit more representation - Help The Aged/Party Hard/The Fear...or seeing as it's the festival season, Sylvia would probably go down well.

I wonder did Russell play on Like A Friend. Tonight was its live debut I think? And did the amount of people who covered it on pulptube make the band take it seriously as a choice for playing live?
Of course it was on the American edition of TIH, featured on a soundtrack (albeit to a shit film) and is the most viewed Pulp song on youtube after Common People, Babies and This Is Hardcore (Disco 2000 for some reason has only been up on youtube since last month).

I saw Pulp! Just got back to my tent and not much charge on my iPhone so will tell you more on Monday! Yes..! They did play 'like a friend' jarvis said "for the first & last time ever!" there were BBC 6 Music roadies onstage when they were setting up so I reckon they recorded it! Glad they mixed up the set! Massive crowd... Jarvis brought frizbees that he threw into the crowd! He said he stole the idea from derren brown! Just before 'common people' he read out his speech from glast 1995 "if a lanky get like me can do it..." and added a few more words of wisdom! That's all I can remember ATM! (time to go to sleep!) I'll write more on Monday when I get home if anyone is interested?!!
