Obviously any headliner announcement is exciting, but I had no idea people could get this excited about a band like this. If this is what it's like for the Foos then I can only image what it would be like if we had rumours of Taylor Swift performing...or maybe that's just me.

How are these people going to survive until the next aimless rumour? they have been living off some scraps about a car park for the last 10 hours you heartless man.

I'm not going to start even more probably-baseless stuff. i'm pretty sure it's not someone's guess. parsonjack had specific info that it was a gig on Friday in Cheese & Grain.

That makes me sad. When did he last post? Being the last fest before a fallow year it's my hope he becomes more active in the coming months!

big__phil Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 I hope the Cheese & Grain have their staffing levels sorted, because they've had a hell of a lot of publicity over the last day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I was about to say the opposite - I don't remember so many negative comments 2 years ago? Maybe I'm just not remembering correctly.

Memory Man Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) The hype this is stirring up is way beyond what i'd have expected, especially for a band that tours so frequently and are already so obviously headlining. Full marks to them for making something truly unexciting, exciting (to some people) For us normal people can they just get on with it and announce it so we can move on? For the record, i reckon they will make an excellent headliner but them having headlined pretty much every large UK festival multiple times over the last decade and more, this is not at all an exciting headline announcement.
