Latitude 2009

[Kinky Boots]

Tx go on sale in less than an hour.

Excited.

[Bez16]

Sorry to bring this up again, but sungubala, are you Edward Lay from your band Editors?

If he is i'll be happy, one the few band i have sorta followed from beginnings (1st saw them early in the day on the nme stage in reading 05) and liked them all the way

[mercury]

i first saw editors when they were still unsigned and called snowfield, so nerr!

[sungubala]

45 minutes...

It's been a very interesting day today...I understand there have been frantic last minute changes to the lineup, not neccesarily the headliners, but other acts. I wouldnt take anything as set in stone though.

I have no idea what's happened, but announcements like the Doves, the Editors etc are no longer as solid in my eyes. They probably will still be there but like I said, apparently there have been some changes.

[Tugger2k]

ive jus noticed that there are 80 users browsing this thread, i guess people are really excited

i know i am, and i already have my ticket

I really bloody hate you

40 minutes to go then we can all rest...

not really, do you remember just how little info we got last year, we got about 12 acts and the comedy

unless they really are releasing the line up in full, but cant see it somehow

Love you too!

Like I said, I'd love to know what happened but dont. We'll never know, cause those acts swapped out will simply never be announced.

And yes, I doubt the full lineup will be released...headliners, other main acts and comedy people. They'll want to release as much as they can though, it simply encourages more people to book tickets!

[Jookie]

Yeah I imagine we'll learn about 12 bands, that'll do me for now to be honest. Hopefully we'll know the Uncut headliners too.

do you think/know if your band will be in the announcement today?

[cam0611]

everyones just waiting for that 15 minute run down, and i've got a bad feeling i'm gonna be massively disappointed

[roversrobin]

Does anyone know if any radio stations are doing a proper announcement a la Leeds/Reading?

[sungubala]

Whats the betting their website crashes?

[Tugger2k]

the link on the official site appears to be selling tickets now

http://www.seetickets.com/see_multi/price....&pgroup=all

i already have my early bird but thought id let you know

[jmitch]

WHAT. THE. f**k.

Why haven't they announced any other musical acts than the headliners??

[Jookie]

Line-up is up on the website!

Just the main 3 headliners we already knew, though...

[cam0611]

Whats the betting their website crashes?

always looking at the positives!

[evilging]

Mine are booked, came onsale about 5 minutes early.

[sungubala]

Hmm...looks suspiciously like their website has crashed!

Im curious as to who they've released, can anyone see the page?

EDIT: Oh I can now. Its empty though?

[jmitch]

I can't believe they're expecting people to spend £161 on tickets just from three anounced large bands...

Sorry it's so messy

[BaaadDad]

I am very confused, surely they must realise that we already knew the three headliners?

is this all they're going to release, becuase i heard the doves, bat for lashes and editors were confirmed?

[radiohea_d]

WTf**k

only the headliners........
