not that a real poster would leak from Glasto - none ever has in the 20 years I've been sat here (they have for other fests) - but I'm now in the position to identify at-least some claims of line-up, from bands I know are playing but which haven't been mentioned by anyone.

Including Headliners?

Are you allowed to say the acts you know about?

Reality is perception, man.

I'm allowed to, I'm currently choosing not to - because it's always useful to have a bit of knowledge in reserve. It helps identify false claims.

I'm desperate for some info.  Just tell us one.

I don't suppose one sounds a bit like Ron Diver?

EDIT - if you mispronounce 'Ron', and 'Diver'

Fair enough. Ideally I’m hoping you say the Voidz ?

I was going to take the piss bc Iver and Diver don't sound alike but it's actually really hard to find something that rhymes with "Iver" 

Ronnie there?

Rings a bell aye. I'm just trying to think of acts that weren't mentioned that I'd be excited about.

So, if someone tells you there’s these two acts playing, and you already know one is for sure, it adds veracity to the other one too? I can’t see how else holding back on this helps...?

It means he can tell a poster is fake if it doesn't have said acts on it. If he reveals those acts they'll instantly be on any fake poster and he won't be able to verify it as fake.

Not that these leaked posters really need verifying as fake.

yep, that sort of thing. Or a fake poster, which i'd know to be fake without those names.

Holding back a little bit has been very useful in the past in helping work out who has valid info (or at least, narrowing it down to those more likely to have the real juice).

putting names out there is also good for traffic. There's no direct benefit like that that I'm thinking about or measuring. 

The benefit I'm looking at is more long-term, by being better at the rumours game than others might manage.

What I'm hearing loud and clear from Neil is Carly Rae Jepsen nailed on.

When she’s announced ‘call me maybe’.

Aye, is that what they call the glastof*stf**d effect? 

Those blighters love a bit of click bait, especially for a vague or wrong rumour sent late at night when people have had some booze that incites a heated debate.

Here ya go @PetePie, it was made by @Mattymooz off of here, the version sent to yo missed off the crucial bit at the bottom. 

 

 

I like this poster, quite easy on the eye. Wonder how close this is to the design of the real one when that comes out..
