as per emily's tweet

Hi all, stage announcement on Weds, not tomorrow.. sorry!

[st dan]

Hmmm this is odd ... It could be that there may be a bit of trouble with a booking that they were due to announce?

Problems with crossing the t's and dotting the i's

   ...wild speculation as to why? Someone major has pulled out?!

Or simply dont want the announcement to be completely outshadowed by election announcement?

If someone had pulled out then I doubt delaying the announcement by 24 hours would make a blind bit of difference? Its not like they could replace them.

Either it is to do with the election or Emily simply made a mistake (we all make them) and accidentally tweeted the wrong day in the original tweet.

Do you know something we dont about Mr.Wonder

If the tickets have not sold quite as well as the festival hoped then the anouncement will more than likely be before the 11th.  If the announcement comes out on the tenth does it really matter.  Virtually everone has their tickets thou personally I would prefer the anouncement to come after the resale just to make Sunday easier.

Is it the "announcement" though or the announcement of the change of name for the Jazzworld that she was talking about being tomorrow?

I am confused.............

that's what i thought. don't think emily has confirmed this though, as i imagine lot's on twitter have asked.

[Langdale Wolf]

WHAT?!

A whole extra 24 hours?!  What will we do?  Deary me - I'm tempted to cancel my ticket in protest.  This is disgraceful, it's against the Glastonbury ethos and would never have happened in the good old days.

Key point there mate. Well made.

This


When I saw the election announced last night, I said to wifey that it was a bad day for glastonbury to announce any acts as it would get lost in the election news, either that or they are having negotiation problems with Jedwood

from what Emily and others told scottie & me just over a week ago, there's defo bands being announced .... and it sounds like it's going to be at least 20 or so, quite possibly over a hundred (depending how far down the stages the announcement goes).

[robith]

Bothered.

Don't get me wrong, I'm desperate to know who's playing, but if this is any more than "The Jazz World's changed its name and Stevie Wonder's playing" then colour me surprised

I suppose one more day can't hurt for those numbers
