I know who this is now, but im sworn to secrecy/(don’t wanna look like a dick) if I was lied to by someone pretty high up in BDs fame so please don’t ask ?

Does this mean it's going to be a bit disappointing when it's announced?

I hate you.  I'm so desperate for the update that I actually checked their website to see if that was true.

 

I'm just going on what Mark Chadwick told me, and he told me it's ABBA. I have no reason to doubt him.

ABBA or KT Tunstall.

I heard a rumour it's The Hives

Could be I guess, tho it would seem a bit odd that they can't be announced before Download but they can before their show with QOTSA at Finsbury Park (particularly as they're for the same promoter).

I like your rumour and wish it to be true.

When I was told it I got terribly excited. One of my favourite bands and they were amazing at Glasto on the Other stage. Need to not get too excited though as it's just a rumour.

The Hives are in Germany that weekend at Highfield festival although I'll be buggered if I can figure out which night they're playing, so still a possibility if it's not the Friday, but makes it a little less likely?

Yeah, I looked at this too. There is no clear indication which day they are doing at that one.

Looks like The Hives are in Highfields festival in Germany on the Saturday at 1pm https://www.facebook.com/hives/app/123966167614127/ so bit of a tight schedule but still doable I guess?

Perhaps it's Iggy Pop, he's also at the QOTSA gig and they're claiming it's a 'UK Exclusive'?

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
