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.

    • Yeah I don't think it's terrible, but it is solidly in the nostalgia category. Would be nice to see R2 get a little more recent in their choices, even 90s!
    • mmm... i note there are several derogatory comments about this... not sure what it says about me, but i could spend a happy afternoon here...   Simple Minds, Deacon Blue and Texas are all great live bands.   hell, i'd even be drawn away from the bar to see James Blunt (if only for a bit of a nostalgia trip for his show on the Pyramid that i admit i hugely enjoyed).   still, with all that said - there's no way i'm going to the other end of the country for it...   🙂
