Next Announcement 2017 Thread

[Gnomicide]

I was thinking of starting one of these for this year's festival as we head into February which has been a popular month for headliner announcements.

Then I saw this...

Are we standing by our beds? Anyway, even if not a Glastonbury announcement tomorrow, it's nice to guess when we'll see stuff. 

For those wanting a little help, TheThingy's shiny new Calendar page is a decent place to start.

Isn't Boomtown due shortly as well?

[sisco]

Sheeran is apparently announcing a tour Tomoz (or so someone else said). I doubt he'd announce Glastonbury too but suppose it's a possible

I see they've tweeted about it, so I can now say that's the 3rd I was on about.

And it's a goodie, that I know some will like a lot. :-)

I dunno. It's a matter of opinion, I guess.

It's a booking that some will think is great tho, I'm pretty sure.

I was waiting in Dublin Airport last year to fly back to the UK when ELO were announced. I am visiting the Fair Isle again this weekend, so fully expect Diana Ross to be confirmed at 9am on Monday.
