announcement

[Badlands]

I am not sure Glastonbury is the biggest festival, and I'd say almost certainly that Coachella is more famous. Don't get me wrong, I think that is a disgrace - but it's most probably true.

Glastonbury is the most prestigious, yes.

Yup, the Rabbit Hole were quoted as saying that they had to be sent last Friday.

I thought someone said they thought the glade line up could be this week, looks like next week now

[sheffieldlady]

In a debate about whether or not things were still being booked recently some mofo said the programs had been sent to the printers already.

EDIT: That was a response to shffieldlady.

That seems pretty early!

[Badlands]

That seems pretty early!

How long does it take to print 150,000 programs?

[JBarbour]

Yup, the Rabbit Hole were quoted as saying that they had to be sent last Friday.

I think the Rabbit hole quote was just about a deadline date for line up to be sorted. Nothing about anything being printed yet.

[Time Being]

Could have applied to just the Rabbit Hole too, as opposed to every other stage at the festival

Not terribly long.

[Thearg]

Surely they won't print the programmes until they release the full lineup,the potential for leakage is massive.

Yep, that about settles it. We're not getting the full line-up this week. They wouldn't exclude Glade.

Yeah when I saw this I was inclined to agree. The 2nd poster last year came out with The Glade on and that wasn't even the full lineup and it's got to the time for that. We'll see what is the announcement that Mr Flow thinks we're getting/or not getting. I don't think he has bullshitted though mind.

Arcadia are announcing next week as well, I'm expecting them on separate days as they bring out their own little poster for their lineup.

If you have 150,000 printers, less than minute Edited May 20, 2015 by Boopickledaddy

I do like all the little posters and a steady drip-feed of smaller areas. It's nice that they all get their go in the spotlight rather than being noticed by a far smaller number of people who bother to scroll that far down the huge line up. It's still frustrating waiting, but I can see why they do it this way.

I'm starting to suspect the smaller areas have been given the last couple of weeks of May to announce, before the full line up on Monday 1st June.

[swede]

Glade just tweeted this:

@GladeAreaGlasto: Working on presenting you our line up for next week... It's HUGE!!! #Glasto15

Looking forward to that , one of my favourite areas last year, no matter what time I randomly bumbled past it had an amazing atmosphere

It depends what they mean by 'sent to the printers', there can be a bit of back and forth for up to a few weeks over how the designs look printed out etc before the final version is locked down. More than possible the rabbit hole were just on about the initial submission. Edited May 20, 2015 by Zac Quinn

I guess they were just gonna announce full lineup alone with The Who and Weller on 1st June, but because of The Sun's leak, threw those guys out there straight away.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Just because the full thing isn't out this week, the another decent announcement could come.

West Holts

Park

Silver Hayes

Shangri La

Even the John Peel could be released

If you have 150,000 printers, less than minute

Could you do it in less than 30 seconds if you have 300,000 printers?

[CHRLY]

I'd rather they dropped all the main stages with their own poster like they're doing with the smaller ones, I reckon it's cool

[mr flow]

I'm questioning my source on the Thursday announcement as unless we're being double bluffed, it doesn't look that way... Unless they mean next Thursday.

I suppose it might still prevail tomorrow but it's starting to look unlikely unfortunately.

[Boopickledaddy]

Could you do it in less than 30 seconds if you have 300,000 printers?

I think it's possible, as long as you have 300,000 people to operate all the printers at the same time.

well Neil also said he heard it was tomorrow, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

[Gnomicide]

Oh, it's 7 o'clock, time for a party.

Even they are taking the piss now.

[Moon Monkey]

Bit quiet this eve, think we need A13 back.......

[Memory Man]

pretty much down to either tomorrow, the 27th or 28th now. 2nd / 3rd June at a push.

my money's definitely on next week with some more smaller areas to drop between now and then.
