FOO FIGHTERS to be announced at NME awards tomorrow?

[dreader1988]

Im sure the past few years we have had some big names announced during the NME awards. Do you think we will get a big announcement like the Foo Fighters or the Legend slot tomorrow??,,,

[JoeyT]

Think the Foos announced themselves during a recorded message when winning an award and considering they aren't nominated for one this time round nor playing at the event it's unlikely.

But considering Emily and Michael will probably be there as the festival is nominated we might get one or two names when they are interviewed by the press either before or after.

Fingers crossed.

Not sure why that post deserved downvoting

Can someone please make a new thread for every band that may or may not be announced at tomorrow's NME Awards, regardless of whether or not that band has any involvement at said awards, rather than discussing it in the relevant pre-existing band-specific thread and/or the 'next announcement' thread. Thanks.

Ouch!

C'mon, play nice. The guy's a newbie. 17 posts in. We need new people to stick around. Slag them off when they've been here a while, fair enough but don't scare them away before they get the chance to prove how crap their music tastes and grammar are.

Newbies should be subjected to a full on Russy tirade as a rite of initiation. If they survive they're welcome to stay.

Is he really? well I never. Love the fact NME are trying to ride the coat-tails of grime back to relevance

He's already pretty much announced himself on Twitter.

[The60ftOctopus]

Plus he didn't mention The Courteeners. C'mon, let's spread the love this valentines day.

Have an upvote friend.

Sorry, MJ I couldn't resist.

Silly thread title and definitely didn't need its own thread id guess 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pet Shop Boys are getting the Godlike Genius Award, I think.  Hopefully their WH headline slot will be the first thing they mention when they take the stage.

I hate that award. What a shite name. I hope they don't turn up

They must sit in the offices at NME and ask "who haven't we given it to yet?"

I'm expecting Embrace to win it before 2020.

[shuttlep]

most importantly will Michael Eavis be wearing his shorts?

[scatteredscreens]

If Foo Fighters put one of those passport map photos on social media tonight for tomorrow then maybe I can see an announcement happening, if they don't I reckon they'll be nothing.

Whilst this is undoubtedly the correct policy, Scruff, once they have earned their stripes, poor grammar will not be tolerated. This forum will NOT become part of #brokenbritain!

Can't have poor grammar when you realise that language is an evolving paradigm and not a defined constant.
