my bad...

I think if we can in anyway confirm that artists do see the poster the week of/week before it comes out (at least the top 2/3 lines) then we have something, if not. I stand by 2nd week of March.

Would Rex Orange be so high?

Nope.

In the days of social media, the internet and just people not knowing when to keep quiet. I can't see every act on the poster and their agent/record label knowing where the bands are on the poster and also seeing the poster. To me thats too many heads and voices that know of it, have a copy of it and then haven't leaked it. Which to what I've heard has never happened before. 

I'm not doubting anyone's sources or friends in here, it just seems ridiculously unlikely that so many artists would have seen the poster, with it not being leaked.

It does seem far fetched. Especially as it's just a band member and not even a manager.

That said I am massively pleased THE Strokes are playing!

I'd plump for a morning announcement so if it's going to be this week then it's probably better to focus on tomorrow than today...

This joke is catching on well

I'd imagine a lot of people will have seen fake posters doing the rounds, not realise they were fake, and then think they've seen the real thing.

Shall we give it until 5PM before NME and XFM publish articles saying line up is out at 7PM x?

I now have this image of Rex Orange County waking up one morning and his agent rings him and goes 'I don't remember signing you up for Glastonbury but I've just seen you on the poster so there we go!'
