I don't think it's inconcievable they could go for lunch and be chatting about it.

Believe me having worked in the service industry for a while when i was young, people have some bizarre conversations in public.

It seems a bit cynical to say they're after publicity, in that neck of the woods I'd imagine good work of mouth is more important than twitter.

Maybe it was just a bit of craic?

That's hardly inconceivable

yeah, they were chatting about it so much that no one at the pub heard any of the names they mentioned. :lol:FFS people, c'mon! Wake up to yourselves, and to what people bullshit about.

U wouldn't hear fuck all people were talking about in my local. So suppose it depends on size of pub and distance from bar.

But on another note this is getting ridiculous, I'm speculating about the size of a pub I'm never gonna visit.

The "full" line up is only ever revealed in May, isn't it? I'm assuming when people talk about wanting the line up they mean a mini-poster like last year.

Yeah we're on about the initial poster that will confirm about 80/90 of the biggest names

Everyone is so cynical! Probably just popped in for lunch, staff maybe know them or clearly at least recognise them, may have said "hi mr eavis, great to see you, any clues on any acts" (well I would if I were working there!) to which he replies "no but all will be revealed tomorrow". He's said elsewhere that it will be today so would be nothing surprising about that. "Chatting about the acts" doesn't mean they were naming names, maybe they were just saying how excited they were about them this year. Maybe they were talking about Kanye west. I think it's all perfectly plausible. We'll see...

I'd just like to point out they used the words "should be revealed tomorrow" so haven't actually taken responsibility for today really.

I think it "should be revealed tomorrow" but don't hold me to it.

they knew he was talking about the line-up - for definite - but they don't know when it's being announced, and didn't ask?

C'mon, ffs. :lol:

We can't be far off a 100 name poster though.

Imagine waiting until May for anything. I'd hate that.

2014 edition was announced April 4th - http://www.nme.com/news/various-artists/76511

Metallica confirmed as final headliner in May. So that would conform to people's expectations of an initial batch today/imminently, and then a full line-up in May.

    • If they fancy chucking something together last knockings, i'm up for it! 😄 Got to get a cat sitter, but i'm 95% there 
    • Yes, that's why I think Interpol would be a good fit for the Wednesday so that they don't take up a prime Mordor slot on the other days.
    • but it is loyalists doing the rioting...so he can also make a point there.
    • I don’t know what was going on with SEE tickets for Phoebe Bridgers this morning.. I had a presale code, got into the sale after queuing for 15mins with the green bars of doom.. but no map to choose seats from, just categories like “aisle seat” and “reserved seat” and sometimes a drop down of the section, but you had no idea where in the section the seat was… then you clicked through and either got “no tickets available” or a captcha which just kept looping no matter how well you selected the thing it was asking you to identify.. then eventually it spat you out to another “not enough tickets available” message.. I went through that loop SO many times.. I was doing captchas endlessly.. it was totally borked.    in the end I went back to the email with the presale code in, it then directed me to ticketmaster rather than see, still for Manchester, and I could then see the tickets on the map .. get them in my basket etc ..but there was only upper tier left.. so going to try my luck on ticketmaster for the main sale.. SEE was total garbage!
