Alan_C Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) I will be more confident of Tuesday if Arcadia announced today. Edited May 22, 2016 by Alan_C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_C Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Having said that, I've just spotted this tweet. They could be bluffing, or they might be announcing a bit later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not unheard of for Arcadia to announce well after the full poster has been revealed. I'm going for full poster Tuesday with EE app and ticket competition following on Wednesday. Stage times in a couple more weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stage times not being for another few weeks would be annoying but I guess they didn't come until the start of June last year. Although the main thing I want now is the stage splits to see where LCD are and whether there appears to a be a space below Adele, so I'm not too bothered about set times coming alongside it. Edit: Because the main poster itself will probably answer these without the need for set times. Edited May 22, 2016 by Will-2609 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid_Haze Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Thinking it could be like the 2013 lineup poster on tuesday which didn't include Arcadia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatAmmy Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Two weeks would put the arcadia announcement firmly outside the "second half of may" zone that they alluded to previously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably more like likely to be fair and like @jparx said if there has been an announcement already he may add in he is playing Glasto. Is BBC breakfast a popular place to announce music events? I have never watched it, I assume its like GMTV type thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_C Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 30th/31st May fall on a Monday and Tuesday so it would still fit with 2nd half of May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WS_Jack_III Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Arcadia have been known to announce their line up way after everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or whatever. I just don't see how Ashcroft announcing tour dates would warrant an appearance on Breakfast, but they do often have some real bumpf on there so who knows. Nope, he announced his other tour dates just like normal, it defo sounds like he's there to give feedback on something he is doing. Glasto would be ace and he's only at a couple of fests this year, decent name. I'd be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyDunlop Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Saying "in the next couple of weeks" isn't definitive. Releasing it 5 mins after that is within that time. I expect the whole thing by the end of the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we're expecting the lineup this week and someone who could be in the bill will be on Breakfast around the time it could be announced. I'm just connecting the dots, that's all. I watch Breakfast every morning and they don't often have someone like Richard Ashcroft on just to announce tour dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
across97 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Richard Ashcroft be a great addition to the line up if what we are saying is true. RA and CATB are 2 names I'd love to see added. Be nice to have the full line up by Bank Holiday Monday as me and my mates are having a 'Meeting' so full line up could help us. Trying to be uber organised as this is our first time, but i'm sure once we're there we'll forget about all organisation and do everything spontaneously.

ghostdancer1 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 haha, well it wasn't about proving anyone wrong, it's just I was almost sure that musicians being in talking bollocks and plugging whatever they were selling was a regular occurrence on BBC Breakfast! granted I didn't actually watch any of those clips, but I can't imagine Busted were in to discuss the geo-political climate in the Middle East or anything!

jparx Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 I might have to take a week sabbatical from the board to get over the shame. Aaaaaaaaanyway. I still think we'll have the full lineup at some point this week. Hopefully some stuff comes out tomorrow which could indicate a possible day for the announcement. I'll be surprised if it drops without some kind of heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
