Yep I can vouch for this.

I'm thinking we're all getting a bit overexcited about announcements. Although there is clearly no pattern, wasn't 2017's Radiohead announcement quite noticeably early by normal standards? With the fallow year I reckon it's been such a gap that now T-Day's been and gone we're all in the mindset that everything's about to kick off. I'm going out on a limb and saying we're not going to see any headliner announcements before Christmas...

I know who I'd rather watch. And that's not even in a post-modern ironic way. Cheesy 80s polished nonsense or not, I'd be all over a bit of Ordinary World after a cider or two EDIT: yes, OW was a 90s tune. The principle stands.

First rugby, now this. You make it harder and harder to like you dude. OK so it was ridiculous bombastic 80s nonsense, but then so was View to a Kill as a film. And if a theme should reflect the movie it's for, it was bang on! Amusingly https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/james-bond-movie-theme-songs-ranked-worst-to-best
