kalifire Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Somebody's put it to Emily that she previously said March. Her reply: "hold fire!" Suggests a poster next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscore Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 it's also quite difficult to hold fire as it burns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikkic Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 I take the phrase "hold fire" to mean something is imminent. I'm guessing next Thursday 10am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoBalls Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Congratulations @morph100, excellent work! In terms of the "hold fire" comment... I am taking that as confirmation that we are getting something by the end of the month... aka this time next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the poster placenta give us a few clues such as Beck subbing and BMTH not being an Other headliner last year. Give us a nice middle column of: RADIOHEAD FOO FIGHTERS ED SHEERAN THE XX LADY GAGA KENDRICK LAMAR THE WEEKND ALT-J JUSTICE Cheers. Can we please replace Kendrick by A Tribe Called Quest and it will be a line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr gumby Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 In honour of my son's favorite number, I think the poster will appear on the eleventy-fourth. Not sure when that is, but I'm sticking to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we've over analysed this. Yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gucci Piggy Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Last two years there felt like ages where we seemed due the lineup and it just wasn't coming. We'd all be coming on here every day desperate to hear something, coming up with reasons why it could be today, etc. This year it doesn't feel due yet at all. Maybe we've just become more used to it now and know there's no point getting excited before the last week in March. Feel like we need a couple of weeks of that before it arrives. However, with Emily's tweet today I'm feeling more confident about it coming in March. It did read like a "hold fire before criticising, it's still March!" to me. So overall I'm saying Thu or Fri next week with a few gruelling days leading up to it where we all reach fever pitch as the time approaches 7pm, only to be disappointed each time. Thursday morning, Thursday evening or Friday morning are my predictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamber Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 TLC are doing their first ever live performances in London in early May at Koko. Sold out already it seems. I'd be beyond ecstatic if they played the festival. Announce that. So, so good in their heyday. Still something, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaston Martin Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Glastonbury lineup announcements is the number 1 cause in anxiety globally. It beat Brexit, Trump, and the rising price of Freddo's. Just wait and see, people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me Glastonbury Eve makes me more anxious than anything else, I work at the Festival so a ticket isn't an issue, I worry about am I taking enough beer/other supplies for the 7 days, will we break down/get stopped on the way, will we have any idiots camped next to us etc etc......of course all this worry ends when you've set your tent up, sit back, relax and know you've got a week of doing what you want, when you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hurdy Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Hold fire just means pause doesn't it? As in 'stop going on, you'll get it when it's ready'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
