Headliners 2015

[Matt42]

Whilst the twitter feed is still active today, there's still hope!!!

Isn't there ???

Very little, if Glasto tweet at all during the day it's likely that there's no announcment.

Are they lulling us in to a false sense of security....

I'm not sat here thinking it's imminent right now

So the week after next at earliest, please Mr Eavis.

[FirsG]

I've resigned myself into thinking late April/early May for any announcement now. Sigh.

Ah well, whilst I agree with you it'll be worth it!

Don't think anything will come over the next week unless balance payments are incredibly low

[Gnomicide]

In think that's how we're all feeling right now.

Let's hope this is slightly reminiscent of the kanye announcment! You said you don't think it's today and then it is!

- it could happen.

[neil999]

what im slightly puzzled by is surely they WANT to have the balances paid asap, and they leave line up till after easter then they arent they less likely to get balances paid earlier?

I'm thinking that Glastonbury will be very chuffed if a similar number to normal pay up the balance without them announcing another act, and that perhaps they'll extend that announcement silence beyond the resale too - so they can clearly show that all the anti-Kanye noise was just meaningless bullshit.

I've no idea if that's what they want or plan to do, but if I was them that's what I'd be looking to do if I felt it was possible. As they probably get daily updates of people paying the balance and have data from other years, then they should be in a good position to know exactly what's going on and the best way to go with whatevr's happening.

[Jackmypie]

Please Mr Eavis, don't release the line up before the resale day.

Only fair that if we don't get a line up, the resale people don't either

if, using data from other years, this year's pay-ups is around the same, would making an announcement increase the pay-ups? Not necessarily.

Ultimately, all they really care about is that it's sold out in enoigh time before the gates open for them not to have financial worries. Everything else is supplementary to that.

okey dokey

i shouldnt really try and second guess them, im sure they know what they are doing!

[Little Andy]

Apologies if this has been asked sometime before ... but is it common that they have not released the lineup until after we pay the full fee?

Search for "the thingy" for details of previous years.

Don''t get him riled or distracted either...he's some sort of fuckin' air traffic control type person.

Which concerns me greatly.
