Prediction for first announcement

[H.M.V]

So in the usual descent in to madness that this forum takes in lieu of an announcement, when do we predict it might be and dare I ask who will be the first? 

[H.M.V]

I predict Gaga doing a bungee jump from the pyramid skeleton announced on Twitter by the Thingy.

Paul 'Macca' Macca will be announced on Christmas Day at 3pm.

not sure if she has an account ( quickly tries quoting her ) but im pretty sure the festival will monitor all social media channels .. if not her then they will have someone doing it on her behalf

She's jj200, or so i've heard.

[Quark]

Yep, it's JJ200.

In my mind's eye I have this wonderful image of HMV starting the topic then prodding Yeti until he adds a comment just to get some peace

Sounds like my ideal job. May as well put my constant lurking on this forum to decent use! Emily, if you're reading this, I'm available for lurking duties.

Seems legit.

[Quark]

On topic I think we'll get something before Christmas. Maybe the teatime slot.

Don't think we'll have a headline announcement this year.

[Crazyfool01]

She hangs around undercover on the fancy dress thread

Are you saying I can't hold my own without my husbands intervention?

I would never dare.

Can see the legend slot getting announced before the headliners, seems to be the most heavily rumoured/leaked from what I've seen

[Guest]

Yeah I reckon we'll get the legend this year, but then nowt else until the poster in balance week.

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

My guess is it'll be The Cure, once they've shifted a significant amount of their own gig tickets. Either way, if you're reading this Emily/JJ, please give us something in November, if only to save us from the Ashcroft-bashing, arguing whether Tories should be allowed in or how many more lights @crazyfool1has stitched onto his magnificent trousers

14 years ago tomorrow, 2 acts were announced.  The 1st was The Undertones, given the context (1 week since John Peel passed away and Michael was also announcing the renaming of the New Bands Tent in his honour) it made perfect sense.

The other one was Outcast. No-one knows why. 

The announcement was in the Bristol Evening Post.

Apart from that, there have been 2 other announcements in November. 1 headliner (U2) and 1 Sunday Tea Time slot (Lionel).

Pray tell, how do you know such informative but ultimately useless, non-patternous* information....?

 

This post is in conjunction with the Glasto Thingy, for all your non-patternous Glasto needs.

 

 

* probably not a real word

I'm going for Macca and Kylie before Christmas. 

[Skoo]

Are Macca and Kyle completely nailed on then?
