Friday other stage opener

[dentalplan]

Has anyone noticed it's changed from SPECIAL GUESTS to TBA on the line up page?

Razorlight, I really doubt it.

I think that band are doomed to tour crap festivals for the rest of their lives and maybe get an afternoon slot at the JP stage.

Haha, Klaxons it is then

[Yesiamaduck]

Yeah I can't see it being anyone big now, unless they've changed it to throw us off, or it was TBA all along (I don't think it was).

[FloorFiller]

it was definitely still Special Guests earlier today so it's a recent change. seems a bit of a weird thing to do. guess it could mean the 'special guest' they had lined up bailed and are being replaced by a regular Other-opening band

Or maybe they got spooked by that Foo Fighters message and are trying to downplay it.

TBA implies that the act will be announced before the day (whether that be on the lineup page or in the lineup booklet given out at the festival) so it seems to me that the special guest is a no-go and that it'll be a regular band who would usually open the stage (unless it's a band playing under a different name, like Metallica as DeHaan)

I did say leftfield! Anyone know what happened to them? Did they split up or did people decide they were crap? I thought they'd disappeared but saw them on a few smaller festival lineups this year

Don't know if they've been mentioned, but Chas'n' Dave are playing a gig in Reading the night before.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Christopher Lee has just released an EP of covers in a heavy metal style.

He's 92 years old but fuck it, that would be great wouldn't it? Wouldn't it?!

Here's an expansion. My page monitor says every notice of unannounced 'Special Guests' on the line up has been changed to 'TBA' OR 'Guests'. No idea what this signifies.

It also says that Mandala Stage, Copperdollar Stage and Bella's Field lineups have been announced.

I'd accept that over a lot of other acts been mentioned. She's got a superb voice and some catchy tunes.
