I wonder if it's at all possible that Shangri-La and Glade will be revealed on the big poster, and that we might get said poster this week...

Just finding the length of time from the last announcement a bit odd. 

And yes, I know, #therearenopatterns and #httt

Nah Emily said "a couple of weeks" on Instagram last week.

Do you reckon if I stay awake till 4am there might be an announcement?

I don't have work tomorrow...

Optimism at its best.

What do we think then? glade today?

[djdavejohnson]

It does seem to have gone awfully quiet (bar a couple of non-Glasto HQ announcements) - today is as good a day as any! Plus it's sunny.

Glade were requesting quotes from people yesterday to add to poster so I'd expect that second half of week. I'm thinking Shang La today.,

Seeing as we've been expecting Glade and/or Shangri La for a while and have been given Toad Hall and the Spoken Words stage, I expect we'll get the welfare tent or sound desk engineers line up today.

Just like she said three British bands were headlining?  I wouldn't take Emily's vague comments as a hard or fast rule. Sure, we probably won't get it this week, but I wouldn't rule it out because Emily said a 'couple' of weeks on Instagram.

Which sound desk engineers are you hoping for?

Hopefully we'll see Jeff again, and maybe Bruce up at the Park. Could be a cracking line up!

The Glade have just changed their FB picture to what appears to be a newly designed theme, I'd imagine something is on the horizon

I've just seen this myself, lets hope we get something in the near future!

Wont be today then. These kind of redesigns updated on a different day are put up to keep interest up. Ill go for Thursday / Friday....

Not that Im hoping someone from the glade reads this and thinks "this will show him" and they release.....

not an official announcement, so makes little difference.

I genuinely don't understand why a poster coming direct from the area - with times and everything - is somehow 'not official' simply because it doesn't appear on the main site.

Seems totally official to me, just not widely publicised.

OK….I'll say it: a clear pattern has emerged. A cursory look at The Thingy™ shows that (excluding bank holidays) the first annoucement of the week since the first poster has gone Tues, Tues, Weds, Weds, Tues. We are in a the classic 'Double-Tues-Double-Weds' (DTDW) cycle. It will be today, it's just a case of what time.

These patterns are all so ridiculous they're magnificent.

Loving this! But wasn't there one on a Sunday?

[DJ Cull]

Surely something today? Anything?? The line-up of stewards for the car parks maybe???

[Cammers]

Have we had 6 announcements yet?

According to Ramsey's theory/Grahams number, order begins in a system anywhere between 6 and Graham's number.

For anyone who wants a light listen at work about Graham's number:

i didn't say the poster wasn't official. i said it wasn't an official announcement, ie. an announcement from the official Glastonbury account/website. if we're going to start including every little area/stage/venue that independently announces its lineup or plans, then it'll just be a complete clusterfuck.
