I read that more as being @THEBOILERMAN's guess, rather than him having an inside line.

 

Yes nothing more than my guess

Doesn't Neil have a system where he can tell if there won't be an announcement? Any hints @eFestivals?

the way we did have of predicting is no longer in play.

I have a way of (maybe) getting confirmation of what looks like a pretty solid date for announcement, but i need a pretty solid date for the announcement before I can use that.

This could one of two ways. I wish you all the luck in the world.

I would love it if they based announcement timelines on things like that. Unlikely, but wonderful.

Now this is the sort of reasoning I can get behind!

Should The Thingy (#AHTT!) have a weather matrix against previous announcements? After all, there could be a pattern...

On the one hand 6pm on a Friday feels like a shitty time to release it.

On the other, he did say the magic phrase: "Stand by your beds".

I'll be doing this too, but because it is Friday and therefore nothing to do with the Glastonbury announcement.

Didn't we get it the Thursday before Good Friday one time? Obviously that'd feel late this year, but I'm sure that was a thing. 2013? I should consult The Thingy really, but then I'd have to cross-reference with Easter dates.

Still sticking with 10am next Tuesday as a guess

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Still sticking with 6pm next Tuesday.

What's this shite then?

Someone taking the piss

Bullshit. That cover photo has about 2 pixels in it, I doubt the festival press team would put together something so cack handed.

Based in Falmouth?

I hope they do a 2013 and hit us with the big poster first. Obviously not expecting it but would be nice to not get excited over acts without knowing if they'll clash.

I'm quietly dreading seeing something like Kendrick on the poster because I'll be agonising about the potential Radiohead clash for months.

I saw an announcement on Twitter but it was just that stupid glastoflamingo saying he's got his wife pregnant.

Christ that would be bad. Hopefully the poster placenta give us a few clues such as Beck subbing and BMTH not being an Other headliner last year.

Give us a nice middle column of:

RADIOHEAD

FOO FIGHTERS

ED SHEERAN

THE XX

LADY GAGA

KENDRICK LAMAR

THE WEEKND

ALT-J

JUSTICE

 

Cheers.

[jparx]

Thatll do nicely.
