Next Announcement thread

[Guest]

Well the snow/hail has just hit this part of the world (Will save you the pics)

It does not matter though one little bit about the weather. I asked for New Order and Slipmatt in the dream line up thread and now both have been announced. Whats the WOW stage like??

Wow has no passed into legend, replaced by the Lodestone Stage.

DJ Premier and Lee Scratch Perry are massive surprises for me. Really pleased!!

It's desolate post-industrial bleak Doctor Zhivago-esque landscapes like that that inspired so much great music from Manchester and it's surrounding *environs*.

I seem to remember them being pretty much the last one to announce last year.

Did they announce after the 'full poster' last year, or does that pretty much confirm we aren't  getting the poster until end of May?

i'm pretty sure they were a fair bit after the full line up poster last year, I remember thinking they were quite late to the party

Arcadia were on the 2nd poster, which suggests to me that we won't be getting this year's 2nd poster until the latter half of May at the earliest

It's hard to call from that really. Siler Hayes announcement is nearly 4 weeks early this year, but there was only a week between that and Arcadia announcement last year. Emily doesn't usually lie either.

She hasn't - she said the the stage by stage (areas) line-ups would be announced in April - they are begining to be announced - and it's April - she never said they would all be announced in April

Most of us were hoping she meant the big poster. Would seem a good bet that we'll get that towards the end of the 3rd week of May, or start of the 4th week I would guess then.

[jparx]

The quote definitely suggested big poster in April. Doubt that'll be the case now anyway. Still think it'll be within 2 weeks.

I don't think it did. Didn't she say they're announcing stage by stage in April to showcase the depth of the lineup? Even when it's been re-posted and people have maintained it sounds like she meant the second poster I didn't think it did.

[morph100]

A new Stage every day now? Fingers crossed!

[Gnomicide]

In 2013 Arcadia didn't come out until just before the festival.

[ourkid1984]

With the Common already saying that they will announce this week (from what I recall) we will get more this week. I think we will have something announced every couple of days now.

[chestwig]

Nice to get some news finally, hopefully there is more to come.

 

liking the look off kurupt FM, these guys are pretty funny. For anybody who ain't heard of them look on YouTube for 'people just do nothing'

Nope nope nope! Midlander through and through and can't stand the feckers, to the point that I have been known to relocate to a different pub if they crop upon the jukebox

Whilst I'm not generally a fan of Silver Hayes as an area, an announcement has got me all excited again.
