Self Confirmed 2017

[scatteredscreens]

 

Some god-awful NME interview but pretty sure a little self confirmation there at the end?

That was the worst attempt to not announce himself I've ever heard. And I've been on these forums a long, long time.

'We are all prime ministers.' What a monumental moron.

Good spot though. As good as confirmed.

BBK Other Stage headliners then?

Yeah it seems so. Obviously the initial Wiley info, plus Neil hearing something to change it to BBK and now Skepta (who was there last year anyway saying or not saying that!).

I'd take some convincing they're going to headline actually, Grime acts don't tend to play the longest sets, I could definitely see them subbing

Yeah, BBK aren't headlining the Other Stage - sorry!

Maybe they "headline" with a justice closing set?

So...Justice would be headlining?

That would just be Justice headlining I agree with Scolari 

 

I think BBK would work quite well subbing or maybe even 3rd other stage, bit of lively action before a headliner, similar to BMTH and The 1975 this year (I know The 1975 asked to play there) 

[FloorFiller]

Yeah BBK would go down far better as a sub (most likely to a dance act, whether that be Justice or another). Can't see them headlining.

I don't even see BBK subbing either.

Skepta is headlining Wireless, just announced this morning, that's probably what he meant seeing as he was asked about festivals overall.

This was my initial thought as soon as I heard the interview this morning 

I think @eFestivals rushing in putting him as a TBC on the rumours page might be a bit unnecessary 

[sisco]

The info was Wiley and Justice headlining. The only way Wiley is if it's with BBK! For me, if you want to believe the Justice rumour then it goes hand in hand with the Wiley/BBK stuff

Excuse me being a bit thick - but isn't BBK a record label?

They do have a record label, but it's a collective of artists also

It's a festival in Spain, isn't it?

Still out of upvotes from last night.

They were briefly a mobile network, according to Wikipedia

Could BBK headline somewhere like Sonic / Wow - I forget which is which - but the larger of the two, I think NAS headlined there a couple of years ago?
