Yep. Would expect something sooner rather than later. Only thing that remotely interests me about this announcement is potentially finding out the days of the final two headliners. And even that is just so I can feel more confident when posting my stage predictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two acts in one announcement, or two separate announcements about different things? Double trouble. Two acts announced at once.

No, although some people will be thrilled no doubt. And yes, KoL weren't the dreadful band they went on to become back then (other views are available).

Time Being Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I could be wrong about this but don't they usually wait until after the emerging talent competition is finished? Far be it for them to take away the spotlight from the emerging bands by announcing a headliner around this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynsey Cox Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Reckon Diana Ross will be announced over the next week...then first posted end of March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I'd be surprised if we don't get anything this month. Emily did say the 'new year' and you could argue that's already passed. Given the major line up announcement will pretty much immediately precede balance payment week, they'll want to space out their other announcements so I can't see one happening any later than early March. I'd say we're in prime territory for at least one big name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 If there's going to be an individual announcement of a headliner (as opposed to it coming out as part of a full line up release) then February is your month. January 0 February 16 March 3 April 0 May 2 June 2 July 0 August 0 September 0 October 2 November 1 December 1 Three of the ones in May/June where replacements for announced artists dropping out, the other is The Who (for an unannounced artist dropping out). #ThereIsNoPattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king_oxymoron Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Do we ever actually get anything from the BRITs? I might be wildly wrong but it feels like it gets brought up every year as a time someone will announce and I swear nobody ever actually does, unlike the NME Awards...

Matt42 Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 this year is a tricky one because I believe that both Ed and foos will get their own announcements - mainly because Ed is a guarenteed talking point for the news, and the foos are doing that cool thing where they mark a country on the map etc. I just don't feel like we are that close to an announcement though, I feel like we could get one big name in Feb but March feels like a more suitable time (this is completely by my hunch btw) just seems to have gone a bit quiet on the glasto front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 I think we'll get the legend and/or another Peej type announcement before we get another headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
