When did they treat us with the announcement of Blur last year! Im sure it was round about this time! Do u reckon they will realise any artists this year early?

This time last year they hadn't sold all the tickets, they could keep the line up under wraps until we open the program on Wednesday morning if they wanted to this year, not that they could keep it all under wraps. There is no incentive to drip feed tid-bits of info out at the moment.

Good point mate! I forgot they were trying 2 boost ticket sales last year!

Neil broke the story on here in Nov. methinks.

The first official headliner announcement was Springsteen in Feb, closely followed by Blur in March. Both were after tickets sold out

Oh yeah, true enough. I don't want to suck his metaphorical glans or owt, but he usually does. I think it was 2003 when I first noticed this place, and he was bang on then.
