dreader1988 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Im sure the past few years we have had some big names announced during the NME awards. Do you think we will get a big announcement like the Foo Fighters or the Legend slot tomorrow??,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyT Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Think the Foos announced themselves during a recorded message when winning an award and considering they aren't nominated for one this time round nor playing at the event it's unlikely. But considering Emily and Michael will probably be there as the festival is nominated we might get one or two names when they are interviewed by the press either before or after. Fingers crossed.

fightoffyour Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Can someone please make a new thread for every band that may or may not be announced at tomorrow's NME Awards, regardless of whether or not that band has any involvement at said awards, rather than discussing it in the relevant pre-existing band-specific thread and/or the 'next announcement' thread. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Pet Shop Boys are getting the Godlike Genius Award, I think.

scatteredscreens Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 If Foo Fighters put one of those passport map photos on social media tonight for tomorrow then maybe I can see an announcement happening, if they don't I reckon they'll be nothing.

Whilst this is undoubtedly the correct policy, Scruff, once they have earned their stripes, poor grammar will not be tolerated. This forum will NOT become part of #brokenbritain!
