This is insane. We've seen it all now. Announced in OCTOBER by painting the logo on the grass. 

[Room to sway]

This is more tense than the ticket sale. Holy BALLS.

Here's a question - why is it oriented the way it is? Towards the cam I mean rather than aligned with the Pyramid in some way.

EDIT: And will it be moved / changed before the fest?

Soup to nuts this has been prompted by last week's eFests post and the subsequent reporting that Radio and the lads were playing.

[Inconspicuous]

It seems like they may be leaving, and cherry picker coming down. Still no mouth...

[jparx]

Why's there a gap there? 

[parsonjack]

What looks like a couple of small children on it now.....Emily's boys?

[FloorFiller]

wonder if this is a Radiohead exclusive announcement/Radiohead requested/did it themselves or if similar will be done for the following two? such a great way to announce a headliner, and having everybody watch it progress is very similar to how Radiohead revealed Burn the Witch (or at least, their website faded out and the internet went mental)

[rzwodezwo]

this is a bloody fantastic way to announced a basically leaked headliner. Well done, Glasto

Fuck a duck boys and girls, I go offline for a couple of hours and come back to find this glorious insanity.

Odds on it being set up by @eFestivals just to fuck with us?

What if the cows lick it/eat it off overnight?

I'd imagine it's been orchestrated by Donwood. The benefit of using the same artist for the festival and Radiohead?

Just perspective / dip in the ground...?

Would take a long time to do a whole lemon, but maybe.

Does Ed Sheeran have a logo?

nah, if i was going to all that trouble I'd have the dancing man painted.

It's a very elaborate wind-up if it's a wind-up.

That was my thought. Very strange if they leave it overnight.

Wouldn't be surprised if the Roses did something similar if/when they confirm, given what they've been doing for their own gigs/announcement since the city gigs

Should Daft Punk confirm, the world is their oyster for an inventive way of announcing..

I'd imagine it's like the paint on a football pitch, which is durable and has the consistency of pigeon poop.

[the wonderwhy]

Has it been mentioned that Open'er Festival over in Poland have an announcement at 6pm tomorrow? (So 5 our time) 

Could be related?
