Where has this Massive Attack thing come from?

They were announced in february for Down TheRabbit Hole, but looks like they dissapeared from the line-up

Are we getting stage splits or not though? 

I'd prefer to see a poster with the separate stages and acts assigned to those stages, rather than a cluster of names in some form of organisation. Much like the 2013 poster

Has anybody seen this yet? Apologies if I'm late to it but a friend has just sent it, load of pish? I've not been able to keep up to date as I'm in work!

That's a rubbish attempt at the RTJ logo

Everyone in this thread should come to the efests meet. It's super. 

Will definitely try and make it, coach traffic permitting.

TBF embargoes and timezones are impossibly difficult. We have to do them at work and it just causes massive brainache. Especially for the last 2 weeks just gone when we hadn't changed but California had - in the end we just cancelled all meetings and embargoes and waited for our clocks to go forward.

Even my watch is taunting me

"time to stand up"

"take a moment to breathe"

What's good now NME is dead to the world?
Pitchfork and eFests, is there anything else?

I give Efests a 8.7 and pitchfork a 2.4 personally

This. it was too early for me last time. It was also my first time at G, so had no fucking idea where anything was, so probably wouldnt have made it anyway.

My favourite are the ones where information is still embargoed, even after it's already out.

Massive Attack cancelled their entire European tour a while back, including their DTRH appearance.

Anderson.Paak also cancelled DTRH after being announced, he'll be in the US that weekend.

Neither seem likely for Glastonbury.

I think my Avalanches theory will be correct  between 6pm and 9pm tonight depending on where The Avalanches are in Australia. Someone find out!

(probably going to be 7pm though)

 

They are from Melbourne. It's currently 23:56 there so they did their accidental post at just before 6pm Melbourne time if my maths are correct

So @eFestivals I'm curious - is your tweet scheduled to go out 5 mins after the time you've been told there'll be an announcement?

nope, my tweet - to stand by your beds - is scheduled to go out before the time i've been told there'll be an announcement.

I think they are ruled out for playing in the states over the weekend

Shame, they were wasted on such an early slot last year. Should have definitely been higher up.

Based on the thread in 2013, the "Stand by yer beds" tweet came about 5-6 hours before the actual announcement. Can we expect a similar schedule this year?

There's no way System of a Down are going to be the fourth name on the poster. Life isn't that good.
