Lineup 29th March.

[Matt42]

I posted this in the "14th April" forum but I'd like to post it here aswell.

"I don't know, take what i'm saying with a pinch of salt. But my friend who is an emerging talent finalist, which also has a slot in a lower stage on another day. Has been told that he can officially announce when he is playing this friday. He said that the information would also be public.

So sorry if that sounded a little muddled, he was allowed to confirm his appearance publicly on thursday (which he did) and he's been told that his placing will be public on friday.

Sorry if I explained that really badly but does that mean that the lineup is coming on friday? Possibly?"

Discuss.

This isn't another one of your hunches is it?

[FunkyDenz]

Not sure about it being this Friday, as that's Good Friday, will they make the line-up announcement on a bank holiday?

[Matt42]

This is no hunch, infact let me get the text.

"They are being very tight on what I say, although they have said the all stage position that i'l be in will all be public on friday".

Yes would make an awesome Birthday present if true

I said in the other thread, I reckon Thursday 28th 7pm

[Matt42]

Perhaps you should remove his name then.

He might get into trouble.

I thought about the Good Friday thing but would that make too much difference?

In the case of Glastonbury line-up releases, it's normally done with such little fanfare and just appears online that I wouldn't have thought it would matter.

Would've thought it would all be ready to be release with the click of a button once the time comes?

Perhaps it's the Emerging Talents who are being announced on Friday? Not necessarily a full line-up.

Perhaps but he said this isn't about the pyramid slot being given away, that's being announced later.

He said this is him being placed on a lower stage. Emerging talent winners get placed on the pyramid.

[Matt42]

From what i've heard each of the 8 finalists will be playing. But the winner gets the pyramid slot, the rest play low key slots throughout the weekend.

This is what my contact posted in an email to me and many other friends who know him...

"A couple of months ago I entered a competition run by Glastonbury to perform on the MAIN STAGE At this years festival

I went through a few rounds and around 10,000 people entered..I can happily announce that I have made it to the FINAL 8."

his exact words.

[glasto_mongrel_2008]

Doesn't it usually coincide with the release of NME or something like that?

Glastonbury doesn't have the same partnering with NME as reading and leeds do.

Reading and Leeds cater their announcements with NME, I highly doubt glastonbury do!

[FloorFiller]

Perhaps it was Q or something then, or something I totally dreamed up, I was sure there was some kind of magazine link though.

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

The announcement is normally in the May edition of Q.

[fatyeti24]

In what way do you mean that because I swear every lineups been out in April.

[Wildfire2]

Ill say 2 weeks be for Glasto starts!

[willutalk]

Announcement coming next Thursday or Friday (from work experience at the festival last week).
