It's coming tomorrow lunch time, hear me now, believe me later.

Unfortunately I'm too much of a resident of these forums to buy in to anything anybody but Neil or the occasional veteran members says - I've been burnt too many times!

Someone made an account under the name Blue Chicken and their only post was an announcement prediction on this thread.

I can't remember if they got it right or not, though!

Someone said the initial poster would drop, they got it right... but wasn't that the year before? I remember being surprised about Motorhead.

There was/is a user called @drchickenburgerwho made countless posts predicting an announcement. I said that they should be hanged if they were wrong.

When that announcement failed to happen I created a pic of a hanged blue chicken - that soon became a t-shirt and band of the that name and was then followed by a new user called Blue Chicken (using the hanged blue chicken pic) and then closely followed bu one called Yellow Chicken.

Either that or the drugs do work!

The outer limits or something. Also told us alt-J were subbing when we thought they were headlining Other (obviously they ended up third but were probs subbing at the time, before Weller came in).

Here is the t-shirt a wonderful e-fester then created.

I think we all need an announcement else things may get hanged again!

That's the badger

[Krisesk]

Out of interest, have The NME Awards brought about any other confirmations other than Foo Fighters the first time?

[the wonderwhy]

Surely it's hung? 

[Andeeroo]

I think Michael let Dolly slip at the NME awards didn't he? I think bmtth also mentioned something last year.

It's normally good for the odd band letting something slip.

Yeah usually gets a confirmation for at least 1 act, usually a headliner (think we got blondie out of the 2013 awards)

You would think so, but I believe 'hanged' is correct when referring to hanging something by the neck.

[waterfalls212434]

Must be something soon, its getting past the point of being `mysterious` and entering the realm of `just tell us something already!`.....noones expecting the full lineup in February/march but something more then just 1 headliner would be nice........its a long cold winter, glasto hype is a great help in getting through it with thoughts of the upcoming June fun but hard to get hyped over 1 band radiohead or not
