Matt42 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) Let me... we have no pre-announcement thread this year, and this place is boring. Probably the most boring efestivals has been pre-announcement ever, where's the excitement? Lets get excited Edited March 28, 2016 by Matt42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 It has to come organically. It can't be forced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 It's been the most timid build up to an announcement since I joined. 2013 was the best, this place was going crackers in the lead up to the Stones breaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miesh Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 I'm excited. I'm going to Glastonbury. That's enough for me, there will be plenty of acts on I will enjoy. There's time between now and June to research music that's new to me from recommendations on here. At some point tomorrow (hopefully) many more names will be known and I'll be even more excited. Also getting up for work after a four day weekend is usually difficult. That won't be the case in the morning! Hopefully the announcement will bring cheer to those of you who are underwhelmed thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time I've been excited listening to Zane Lowe was when he announced The Stones on his show. Wish I could find the audio clip of that.

I saw George Allagyah talking, no sound, then the picture shifts to The Pyramid, then The Stones, then "Rolling Stones to play Glastonbury Festival" scrolls across the bottom. Magic.

mufcok Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) I don't have the excitement I've had in previous years about the poster, not sure why. Maybe because the bulk seems somewhat predictable (unless we're in some unexpected surprises) and we've already bee given all 3 headliners, most of which have gone down like a lead balloon.

shuttlep Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 The headliners have been very safe. I'm hoping for Orbital to close Sunday night on the other stage . Just like they used to . I I hope they do announce tomorrow . If they can wait till after nine as I'll be driving until then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
