Initially I chuckled at this Dental, but then I head the woman from the beeb on Radio 4's media show earlier in the week. Although she mentioned it was mainly going to be boxsets of BBC and ITV shows, it's not beyond the realms of possibility they could go that was with Glastonbury coverage. I bet they've considered it.

They're definitely not going to be giving up a lineup poster for a while if they were booked to play. I think at least Monday before we get an announcement. And I think that's fair enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as far as I know, almost all bookings are done on a "won't be announced before xth April" basis. While there's exceptions to that I can't really see why Prodigy would be one of those exceptions.

sisco Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Unless it’s a standalone headliner announcement I’d be amazed if there is another announcement prior to the poster. As Neil said it’s highly unlikely that The Prodigy would have been announced prior to poster so it won’t have any affect on the next announcement. I’m guessing the poster will be the end of March so I’m sure they would have re-jigged the names by then to cover The Prodigy’s absence.

Based on previous years I think there's a decent chance of that standalone headliner announcement, tho perhaps this is the year they'll keep 2 back for the poster.

Havors Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) The only likely announcements will be headliners before the first poster drops at the end of this month.

The papers/news/internet will be full of Brexit stuff to the point where no other story will get a look in. It would be overlooked by a huge number of people.

They're not going to release at a time when they'll be massively overshadowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
