The fun thing about all this build up is I'm gonna end up watching this thread go insane for a tense month then 1 day a newbie is gonna pop up in the group WhatsApp with "line up is out!" And it will all have been for nothing.

Going to be holding Neil personally responsible on the off chance his 7pm information turns out to be a dud

there's been a couple of tweets at them where they've been suggestive in their replies. They're in one of the topics round here somewhere.

Any idea whether they’re touring with a full live band again?

Had you had info or is that a guess Neil?

And what do you make of this business about people seeing the poster? Load of cobblers?

[JoeyT]

Am I right in thinking it was the avalanches who gave away the poster was imminent a few years ago by tweeting that "i'm playing Glastonbury" gif?

If so, coincidence much?

Yes you are! 2017, the night before I think? 

[jparx]

The Avalanches set to become Efests heroes?

Pretty sure he's having us on with that guess but I've added it anyway

I really don't think many people see the poster or it would definitely leak. Everyone has friends in the industry and stuff like that will always slip through

It was in December 2016

just a guess.

One of the reasons the date of the poster moves around is because the date of Easter moves around.

With that in mind i reckon week beginning the 30th is the earliest for the poster, I don't reckon they'd announce on the 1st, and a couple of days into the the pay-up time seems about right.

it's possible there's something going around already I guess, but I think it's very unlikely that bands would be seeing it as that would seem much too widely circulated for right now.

[Matt42]

Some Brit pop band poster the logo design on their twitter one year. Think it was Suede.

I love when bands leak shit by accident. Always seem to be bands I never end up seeing though.

Its funny that almost every poster leak (if you can call it that) can be attributed to one band.

2015 (just checked) was Suede

2017 - Avalanches.

What year did the Charlatans let it slip?

Nah quark I know what they are on about. Avalanches leaked that the announcement was imminent 

[jparx]

Ah man, has to drop in the morning on 1st April one year, right?

it'd be a brave man (or woman) that signed that off, I reckon.

Could happen tho.

That really would be Emily just deciding to mess with everyone. Incredible if true.
