dentalplan Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 If Glasto HQ is looking for ideas for the pre-Christmas announcement, I suggest a modern update of the Bing Crosby and David Bowie video featuring Paul McCartney and Stormzy, which turns out to be a dream of Michael’s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted December 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 The previous closest announcement to Christmas was Arcade Fire on 19th December so they're not averse to announcing a headliner at this time of year. If I remember correctly though, the festival's hand was forced a bit because Arcade Fire posted a photo of a white board with tour dates on it?

Is that a hunch or have you had some info to suggest it? Sounds good to me, although I think they could pull off something much more creative announcing him at Christmas, but I won't complain.

It's a hunch, but based on Emily saying there'll be an announcement before xmas. There's going to be a reason why, and the end of Macca's shows seems a pretty logical bet.

jparx Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 I break up for today and that would be a mega start to the Christmas holiday. It would be awesome to get him announced on Sunday and know that, at the very least, I'll be seeing Macca in 2019. It's my girlfriend's first time as well and Macca is top of her list. She's equally excited and anxious at the thought of a first Glastonbury, so getting Macca announced would be great to get her really excited going in to the New Year.

Gnomicide Posted December 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 It seems logical, especially if he is doing Hyde Park as well, announce at the London show he'll be back in the summer for those two. Hang on... logical? Probably won't happen then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His gigs are very much of the 'same songs in the same order with the same anecdotes at every date of the tour' variety though, so I can't imagine anyone going off-script.

The alternative to him announcing it on stage would be an announcement in the day or two afterwards, if it's something being triggered by the end of his tour.

Crazyfool01 Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 looking at the thingy the only sunday announcements I can see are the stage by stage ones ... so I would guess at a monday announcement , not so much publicity could be gained from a sunday announcement I would guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like this will be sold alongside Thatchers in the general bars as they renewed their partnership with the festival for 5 years in 2016. Edit: Although that article does say "The cider is produced using apples grown just miles from the festival site and will be on offer for the next four years of the festival as the event's principal cider brand." Perhaps the Thatchers deal is no more? Edited December 14, 2018 by JoeyT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
