Glastonbury 2025: Music Fans Think They've Already Worked Out Who'll Be Doing A Surprise Set
With just weeks to go until this year's Glastonbury gets underway, music fans have been doing some detective work to try and decipher a mysterious act that has suddenly popped up on the line-up.
On Tuesday morning, the full list of stage times for the upcoming festival was unveiled – including the presence of an intriguing act that no one seems to have heard of.
At 6pm on the Saturday of the festival, the Pyramid Stage will be host to an hour-long set from an act called 'Patchwork', who hadn't previously been announced on the line-up.
This put many fans in mind of two years ago, when an unknown band called 'The Churnups' were added to the schedule, later revealing themselves as the Foo Fighters doing a surprise set.
And fans on Reddit and X already think they've cracked the code behind Patchwork's secret identity.
One Reddit user claimed that Patchwork is the name of a German novel by the author Sylvia Haim, while it's also pointed out that it's also the title of a 2015 horror movie about a Frankenstein monster-esque creation made from the bodies of three women who come together to seek revenge on their killer.
Both of these clues seem to point to Haim – the US three-piece made up of sisters Alana, Danielle and Este – making an appearance on the Pyramid Stage this year.
Fuelling this is the fact that Haim will already be in the UK on Glastonbury weekend, with a one-off gig in Margate scheduled for the night before their rumoured Worthy Farm set.

It's also been announced that there are a whopping 56 'TBA' markers on the current Glasto schedule, with everyone from Mumford & Sons and Pulp to Lewis Capaldi rumoured to be making surprise appearances at the festival later this month.
Stand-outs on this year's Glastonbury line-up include HuffPost faves like Jade, Scissor Sisters, Charli XCX as well as the likes of The Libertines, The Prodigy and Alanis Morrissette.
Olivia Rodrigo, The 1975 and Neil Young will all headline on the Pyramid Stage, while Sir Rod Stewart is due to appear in the coveted Sunday afternoon 'legends' slot.

Braun & NEIGHBORHOOD Reproduce Retro Clock Designs From the 1980s
Shinsuke Takizawa'sNEIGHBORHOODhas unveiled an inaugural collaboration with German electronics manufacturerBraun, featuring a limited-edition wall clock and an alarm clock, based on original designs from the 80s. The collection centers on reproductions of two models, updated with a custom dial cobranded with both brands' logos. The BC02 is based on the AB1 miniature alarm clock, born in 1987, and the BC06 wall clock is based on the ABW30 model from 1981, a piece featured inMoMA's permanent collection. With a 24-hour Arabic index in addition to the 12-hour notation, the two pieces draw inspiration from military watch designs. Each clock is offered in minimal black and white plastic variants, following the sensibilities of Braun's sleek design language. Founded in 1921 with roots in theBauhausdesign movement, Braun's legacy in electronics design spans more than 100 years, but some of its most beloved designs came fromDieter Ramsin the latter half of the 20th century. The clocks featured in the NEIGHBORHOOD collection are based on models from Rams' tenure at the company, beginning in 1955 until 1997. With releases like its 2024 reinterpretation ofColumbia's GP3 turntableand itsmini tape player/boomboxunveiled in April, the new partnership isn't NEIGHBROHOOD's first foray into electronics. Having shown an affinity for retro technology over the years, Shinsuke Takizawa continues to develop Neighborhood's scope with its latest collaboration. The Braun x NEIGHBORHOOD clock collection is set for release on June 7 at the official NEIGHBORHOOD webstore.

Her Husband Signed The Contract—Then Panicked. A $1,880 Mortgage Left Them With No Room To Breathe, And Now He Wants Out
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. A stay-at-home mom thought she and her husband had found the perfect home. They agreed to a $430,000 price, put together a $165,000 down payment from savings and a gift, and signed the contract. Then her husband changed his mind. 'It met all our needs, in one of the best school districts in the state, and needed nothing done to it,' the original poster wrote on Reddit's r/RealEstate. But after crunching numbers, her husband had a meltdown. Don't Miss: Invest Where It Hurts — And Help Millions Heal: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: . The couple planned to put down $85,000 of their own money plus an $80,000 gift from his parents. Their monthly mortgage payment was estimated at $1,880. With a take-home income of $5,500 and no major debt, the numbers seemed manageable. Still, the husband panicked, saying there wouldn't be enough 'free cash' left every month. In a follow-up, the husband explained, 'My $5,500 take-home is net after maxing out the 401(k)... we want to allocate $30K of the sale price [of our current home] to an emergency fund.' He added that they were also contributing $1,200 a month to Roth IRAs and $400 to a college fund, leaving them with only a few hundred dollars in wiggle room. Even though the home was a rare find that ticked every box, the husband now wants to consult a lawyer to get out of the contract. Their realtor advised waiting until inspection to potentially withdraw—a common tactic even if the inspection is 'informational only.' Trending: With Point, you can But that wasn't enough reassurance. The husband admitted, 'The largest reason I am experiencing anxiety is that we are coming from a $1,100 a month mortgage payment, which leads to a lot more free cash. I just want to make sure my family is financially sound.' Commenters weighed in fast and hard. 'I would kill for a $1,900 a month mortgage,' one wrote. Others were more sympathetic. 'Financial stress is hard on marriages, and your husband is prone to it. He probably isn't suited to homeownership because of ongoing repair costs. He will fret about it,' one person said. Another reassured OP saying, 'You plan to go back to work and it will add to your budget. It's scary to make a big purchase, but I would regret walking from my perfect home. It may not come back around.'Many questioned whether the fear was justified. '$1,880 a month is less than what most rents are for a decent place,' a commenter said. 'You're in far better shape than most. This seems like panic, rather than an actual financial issue.' Some pointed to the family's unique situation. 'They have an autistic child. Adds a ton of insecurity,' one user noted. Still, others slammed the decision-making process. 'You should have been looking at $300K and lower houses,' one wrote. 'How did a mortgage company approve that?' One agent weighed in honestly: 'Signing a contract that does not give you any sort of due diligence or inspection contingency, and is only for informational purposes, is a really bad idea. No house is worth that.' If the couple backs out, they'll likely lose the $3,000 earnest money deposit. Most commenters agreed it's a small price to pay compared to long-term regret or marital tension. But others warned that dragging it out might damage their standing in future offers. .

Thanks To Kate Moss, Your Fantasy Festival Wardrobe Is Now Within Reach
Among the thousands of famous photographs of Kate Moss, there's one that has come to be emblematic of several things at once: a sybaritic British summer, the early noughties boho aesthetic, the dawn of festival fashion, the supermodel's own inimitable style. She's walking through a field at Glastonbury in 2003, wearing a pale pink tunic dress with black fringed moccasin boots, a printed silk scarf knotted around her hips and her face semi-obscured by a combination of sunglasses and a curtain of dirty-blonde hair. 'I went to get some breakfast on my own,' Moss recalls of this Glasto outing. Jon Furniss The look pre-dated Instagram and influencers, and yet it had the sort of impact today's young tastemakers could scarcely dream of. Some 22 years on, now that festival wardrobes are curated with military precision and documented ad nauseam online, it's interesting to contemplate exactly how much thought went into Kate's oft-emulated outfit. Not a lot, it turns out. 'Planned outfits never work for me,' says Moss with a shrug. 'I don't do that.' She couldn't have known the clothes she threw together that year would ultimately become a sort of cultural touchstone, but she did get some inkling of the stir she'd created over the course of the weekend. 'I went to get some breakfast on my own, and there was one photographer,' she remembers of that morning outing in her pink dress. 'It wasn't a paparazzi-fest then.' The next day, a friend told her she'd made the papers. 'We'd gone to see Chas & Dave and he told me: 'You're on the cover of The Sunday Times,'' she says with her signature cackle. 'I was like, 'Don't be stupid!''
