announcement

[Gucci Piggy]

Probably not.

[thewayiam]

So this mornings announcement was it? Nothing tonight?

Nope, I will be slightly surprised if a Shangri-La area announcement comes on Monday before the extra lineup is added to make the full poster, I can't recall this happening before. There is a chance however that it may come at the same time. I'm fully of the belief that if it was the election this week that the rest would have probably come tomorrow evening after they let The Who/Weller have their moment today.

Could it be that they were planning to do the poster today but after the Sun leaked it decided to do The Who/Weller instead? I'm guessing we'll see it early next week, surely no later than that, and I do agree that the election means we won't see it this week, plus they'd want to space them out a little. Quite annoyed as I was hoping to know if TV on the Radio are playing before I buy tickets for their second Roundhouse date on Friday, but guess I'll have to go for that anyway.

Worth noting they've announced the full Theatre field line-up weeks ago, which is normally the last thing we get.

Wouldn't they just add The Who/Weller to the announcement, though? I doubt they specifically wanted to announce them separately from the poster (based on the Metallica announcement last year).

Although saying this, the fact they were announced separately suggests otherwise Unless the poster is coming tonight and they just put that put this morning because of The Who jumping the gun.

Edit: But they must have had this morning's poster ready in advance so I doubt that's the case

Indeed but it's not unusual for them to announce a fair bit of this before the full poster.

Obviously not, if they didn't want The Who/Weller to be a separate announcement then they would've announced it all today. I expect originally that the full poster was due today and the other two would've waited had it not been leaked.

Yeah good point. It's hard to see what their logic is there, surely if it's about stopping people from refunding they'd go for a wide range of artists rather than just the two. But on the other hand they'll sell all the tickets regardless so they can put the poster out whenever they feel like it - I'd just hope it's sooner rather than later.

???????????? Yes I said this in the post you quoted

I didn't see all of your post to be fair, as in missed the 2nd paragraph. Each one just got contradicted in there with each other lol.

In fairness, they obviously had a timescale to wait but given when the full poster comes out and they'd made out it was 'big', they clearly never intended to release it in a whole, 'here's some more for you'.

What confuses me more is that people understood what that meant?!

I guess if it's Annie Mac, all there might be is a Silver Hayes etc announcement.

Annie Mac said they are celebrating music at Glastonbury 8.30 while 9 on radio 1 or something along them lines. I need someone else listening to confirm that's what she said, I'm half listening half making tea. She maybe just playing tracks from artists already announced or it could be more acts, no idea

I promise I'm not intentionally being an arse, but is that an expression I just don't know?

Do you mean 8.30 until 9? I'm guessing you do. Anyway, listen for me, will you - I'm at work!
