stylishkids Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Well I've just booked my ticket for this year. Really looking forward to it. Do we know if the act announced is definitely a headliner? Can't find anything to suggest it will or will not be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 we don't - it probably isn't i meant to say do we think the theme will be tied to the act who may be headlining - it probably isn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave The Hedgehog Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 My money is on New Order now they've announced a UK tour. We haven't really heard a peep from Rob for months over what's happening or clues as to who's headlining; the date 'February 8th' was more or less when I'd conceded the line-up and theme to be announced when he told us it the other day, so the fact New Order released tour information today and out of the blue Rob's made the decision to make an announcement one day later than that can't be coincidence. That's just my theory anyway. The theme may be something like New Wave or 80s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave The Hedgehog Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think New Order will play,but them having a tour onsale this week makes it being them less likely to be announced tomorrow. Festvial date would impact on their sales! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5co77ie Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 It might not even be a headliner; just somebody to tease us like Chic did ahead of the Camp Bestival announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 ...actually isn't just Camp Bestival which does the video teasers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Child Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I hope I don't get to many double acts clashing with other festivals I'm going to... Saying that though they need to cater for everyone who isn't going to other festivals, just don't really want to be watching the same artist again.

Dave The Hedgehog Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 ...and they're not even headlining according to their Facebook. 7pm headliner? Don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul ™ Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Orbital will be headlining the Big Top on Sunday night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 ...and they're not even headlining according to their Facebook. 7pm headliner? Don't think so. the press release we've had says they're the big top headliner. So I'm guessing that that "7pm" comes from a facebook default setting (I know that myspace did things in that way).

Joe- Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I think the default time for shows is 7pm on Facebook. Will be more 1amish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
