Next Announcement thread

[JoeyT]

I thought general feeling was Arcadia early this week then the full thing late this week?

Has anything happened to change that train of thought?

*having read back a page I can see things have actually changed*

The full shebang?

Should be, sometime about 4pm I believe.

Hmmmm.... someone always makes a prediction like this which comes true.

You sound quite confident?

This is one of those make or break moments for a poster, isn't it?

How to become a legend in 30 posts or less?

I've put this guy on high alert in case it's a wind-up. We'll put the chicken burger in de basket.

I'm betting on break, now where's the bookies?

It feels like something is happening today. Lots of stuff cracking off for 9:20am. Fingers crossed.

I still think it'll be later in the week, but I'm ready to stand by my bed at 4pm.

[Bradders]

Well mr chicken burger did once post this thread, so clearly enjoys a bit of a wind up. Hope it is today anyway but I'd guess closer to the end of the week.

Surely if he IS announcing tour dates then he'd want to keep any Glastonbury appearance quiet until they've had a chance to sell out?

probably. I don't think his appearance will have anything whatsoever to do with Glastonbury tbh. he's there to plug his album and shows IMO, like most musicians who go on there.

if he is on the Glastonbury lineup, I'd imagine it's very much co-incidence that he's on TV that day, as I'm pretty certain GFL isn't keeping him in the loop regarding the full-lineup, and given how surly and downbeat he can be, he's certainly not the person I'd be wheeling out to do promotion for the festival!

Now mr chicken burger, are you prepared for a tonne of downvotes if you're wrong? Where did you get this information?

[Callum_96]

Whats the general feeling with the announcement? Do we think we are gonna get stage times as well? I just had a look and for the past 2 years the stage times were released on the 2nd and 4th June, so its only a week difference

[Hugh Jass]

I love it when someone goes balls out with a prediction.

I believe in the chicken man.

I feel there's chance we might not get stage times with this announcement but i feel we'll get stage splits.

They blew up the chicken man in Philly last night.

in 2014, my timehop suggests we got the full line on the 22nd May.   Did the stage times not get released until later/

From a quick google search, it says that the stage times were released on the 4th in 2014. I'm leaning towards the same happening this year, stage splits this week then the stage times within the next 2 weeks.

Until he gives more information, i don't.

When has the lineup ever come out at 4pm? He's playing us all for fools.

Though I do believe that if Arcadia doesn't come out today, the lineup will drop tomorrow. If Arcadia is announced today, the lineup will drop on thursday.

Perhaps if we all do a chicken dance it'll come true....

there's often a lineup poster which has the stage splits for the main stages (has come out around the middle/end of May, sometimes earlier).

then the full list of all stages with times later (usually in June).

last year both came at the same time.

I'm at the stage where I'm ready to consider any prediction.

[JoeyT]

At least we currently have a reason to be excited about 4pm on a Monday!

I'll get myself prepared for an intense period of anticipation along with a pack of tissues for the inevitable disappointment post 4pm....

Has anyone here ever seen a real chicken before??

[Badlands]

Can’t remember who the user was last year who carried out some top quality trolling, confidently calling out the date and time. All very rudimentary but the reaction when he was found out was pretty funny. Much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
