I’m a regular glasto goer so benni is new to me, still trying to get to grips with who they go for, relatively happy with the lineup so far but would like a few more guitar acts over rap, still a week in the sun with live music can’t be beaten 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant0806892 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 So fiber leaks are teasing potential line up news this week. How accurate have they been in the past with this sort of stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How accurate have they been in the past with this sort of stuff? Hard to tell tbh they've stated bands which are and aren't playing but alot of the predictions to play this year haven't been announced yet (don't think they have predicted any act yet). The predictions of acts not playing seem like fairly accurate guesses tbh like stating Nick Cave wouldn't play is a pretty easy assumption to make as i don't think he's the sort of act the festival would book. The only thing I've seen them predict/confirm was that the last announcement leak was true when it was obvious it was true. They did correctly predict two door cinema club but thats the only correct prediction so far Edited February 12, 2018 by Paulmcm1998 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andytommo Posted February 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 If there IS an announcement this week, and it includes Hinds, Anderson Paak, Miles Kane and Baxter Dury, and definitely no Diplo nor Imagine Dragons, then the person has credibility. Let’s wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Postman Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 anyone else think Alt-J a solid shout? headlining latitude with The Killers and have that weekend off in their schedule, Lorde as well as a second tier act?

It' a really poor line-up especially when they no glastonbury to compete with this year. Kendrick the only headliner id want to see and he won' be at beni *also several acts have shared a poster with Travis Scott on it wonder has he pulled out as not on the offical poster from the festival or will he be announced later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melvin Benn’s got them signed up for R&L this summer, so who knows? Maybe he’s also got them for FIB?

One of the better live solo artists out there atm Alt-J playing BBK the weekend before Beni, so I’d say it’s unlikely, and Lorde’s in Asia the weekend of FIB.
