So i have listened to Zoe's wee bit on iplayer but what did Neil say? 

Shall I keep my bed nearby in order to stand by it? 

What did she say?

Neil said something about hearing whispers.

I am slightly worried that they won’t want to seem like they’re undermining the severity of the Coronavirus statement by dropping the line-up straight afterwards. Although my last post was about seeing how they’d likely to do it to provide some good news in a frightening day... basically I’m clueless.

[Badlands]

Cheers all.

As blasphemous as this sounds, the lineup  seems trivial to me at the moment. It’ll be almost a ‘look what you could have won’.

On the other hand, what else am I gonna do with my time if not procrastinating on this here place.

Fella I talked to last week that works in the booking industry reckoned it was tomorrow - between that and the government announcement tonight I'm not getting my hopes up. Would be very happy to be wrong though!

I'm not saying the name but I'm close friends with a lady who organises workers for one of the charities. She has been instructed to put in the motion of cancelling all part time workers from tomorrow.

Thats fair enough, why would you not believe your friend! Ive just spoken to a mate who organises an area of the festival (albeit a very small and not very exciting area!), and she has received no such instructions. Could be that she's lower down the list than your friend so just hasn't been contacted yet.

Do you still reckon we will get something today @eFestivals?

Is 7 not quite common? What did thingy say again?

No fucking way

Hmmm, just seen in the countdown thread that It's 104 days to go... Could just be me but I like round numbers and 100 isn't that far away...

 

That being said, I'm sure the format/sizing/layout has been slightly updated on the home page within the last 2 hours, unless my eyes are playing tricks on me...

*meaning all content is the same, but the formatting looks slightly different to this morning. (Been refreshing it every now and then all day)

now that you mention it.....ye?

[Garrett_Salas]

seems pretty crazy that today of all days would be when it drops, personally feel that they've missed the boat on a timing that wouldn't be met with scorn (from the general public) - but am probably over thinking it

You're correct. A comparison with a version from last month shows that they've made the news feed fonts much bigger, probably today as there haven't been any shots taken by the Internet Archive since then.
