jonnytee1 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I'll stick with my comment on the Mad Cool FB page - This is the most tedious crap way of announcing a line up I have ever, ever known! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so you’ve all got that to look forward to soon yeah, i remember. the hint was the coordinates for the city of the bands. i might be wrong, but weren't the bands better known than the last 4 or 5 announcements?

Agree - it's fucking agonising. Daily announcements would work if it was large acts being announced, when it's smaller artists it's just laborious.

Last year until Nov 20, we have already known Depeche Mode, QOTSA, Massive Attack, NIN,MGMT, Jack Johnson, Future Islands, Fleet Foxes, Ofenbach, Real Estate, Angel Stanich, Yo La Tengo, Black Pistol Fire, La moda. They should announce another headliner tomorrow Edited November 19, 2018 by birchtree29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should announce another headliner tomorrow Last year they were vying for Glastonbury goers and aiming to plant their flag on the world festival scene. They've done that now, and can afford to go a bit easier this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gucci Piggy Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Yeah and the number 10 has nowt to do with Radiohead, unless it was 10 bands ending with Radiohead. But if they were announcing Radiohead tomorrow I think it'd be just then. The whole theme of the announcements has been maths. Just because the theme last year was geography we didn't have a headliner that had anything to do with geography. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
