hopefully it's to make up for not headlining Glastonbury, hopefully that's how things work

[morph100]

any bookies still taking bets on any of the headliners?

[Bisque]

I'm enjoying the drip feeding of info from Neil recently, on here & the other threads. Slowly coming together. Probably.

NME Awards a couple of hours away... Did we ever establish whether they are actually sponsored by the city of Austin in Texas?

Weirdly, they are actually sponsored by the city. Not really sure how or why that ever came about but hey.

Just noticed that there too. Not really worth betting on anything there though given that A Head Full of Dreams seems most likely and it isn't even listed.

(Didn't) NME sponsor South by South West (Music Fest) in Austin Texas.

Or is that too obvious and I dunno what you lot are in about?

Otherwise known as SXSW.

Google / wiki it.

It's a pretty big deal.

I think AC/DC is unlikely simply because their UK dates are long since sold out, you can't get an AC/DC ticket for love nor money, there is no reason for any delay in announcing them, usually acts can't be announced because they have tickets to sell, AC/DC don't in UK

[Badlands]

Got tickets for them at Olympic Park, I'd happily watch them twice in a month though.

It's just their tourist board trying a new way to advertise the city 

Quote

Bob Lander, President & CEO of the Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau said: "We are thrilled to be the title sponsor for the 2014 NME Awards. This partnership represents an incredible opportunity to expose our Live Music Capital of the World brand and outstanding Austin talent to their fan base."

"Additionally, Austin represents a long established and world renowned musical legacy and we’re looking forward to globalising that image."

How about  a bit of Shania - very long introduction but when she hits the stage - OOHHH MAMA!!!! I would love her to be one of the female acts.

You'd need an individual booth by sounds of it.

Yup. And we'll spend three agonising months flitting between Adele and Radiohead.
