I really don't think what's in the news will affect when/if we get a poster, UNLESS it's a major death or something along those lines. I just can't imagine Emily Eavis sitting there thinking 'well, we could release it on Tuesday but Hillsborough will be all over the news'. The festival is already sold out, they are hardly going to be worried about not making the 6 o clock news because of the Hillsborough verdict. If that was the case, the lineup would never get released because there's always some big news that would over shadow it.

Yeah. I was guilty of predicting on multiple occasions last year that nothing would be released at the start of May because everyone would be too preoccupied with politics to notice, so of course they announced the final headliner the very day before the election. It's very possible that they were planning to announce last Thursday and postponed out of respect to Prince, but that'd be out of respect not because of a fear it'd get ignored, and regardless there's basically no way they'd have been able to tell every single band concerned that the announcement was cancelled with only 45 minutes notice, so given that nothing leaked by accident etc. it basically can't have been planned for last Thursday.

Anyway to be honest I feel like it was only yesterday that the first poster was revealed, I don't 'feel like more is due' for a good couple of weeks.

yeah tbh if it wasn't for Emily saying we were getting something in April i'd still be expecting to wait a good couple of weeks for the stage splits

Going to be a Good week

The great thing about not having an announcement today is it means there might be an announcement tomorrow

Hence I will be excited all day tomorrow in case there is announcement tomorrow

This happened every day until an announcement is made.. which might be tomorrow. Or might not

... then the same happens again until the stage splits are announced

Complete guess. I'm so far out the loop I still haven't heard who the headliners are.

It's going to be tomorrow morning to make my UB40 gig tomorrow night a good one! It's a great feeling going to a gig whilst being excited for many other acts to see in the coming weeks!
