Surely we’re getting something on Halloween, the book release and now this, feels like we’re getting somewhere here:

True story, Liverpool, Mountford Hall NME awards tour 2003. The Datsuns, The Polyphonic Spree, Interpol & The Thrills. Me and my mate at the age of 15 bought Polyphonic Spree robes off the merch fella. Tim DeLaughter spotted us wearing these robes whilst they were playing and after they had finished came and spoke to us. He then proceeded to baptise us in to The Polyphonic Spree. 

Yeah, that needs to be your outfit at the next family party! ?

I haven’t got it anymore ☹️ It disappeared about 10 years ago, I think I took it to Leeds one year and it didn’t come back.

Probably got set on fire Sunday night! I'm off out for lunch with your Dad today... I'll ask for photographs! ? 

True story my Ma told me yesterday. So she's off to your Dad's Christmas party in fancy dress. Her and Michael had grand plans to go as elves. I'm fucking gutted he has told her it's Beaky Blinders. Can't stop howling at the thought of everyone dressed as the roaring 20s and the pair of them knocking on the door as Santa's little helpers ??????

Ok ... I’ve relented the webcam is going back on

Potentially, thankfully I didn’t feel the urge to walk in to the fire whilst wearing it. I don’t think there’s any evidence from those days ? He’ll remember the robe though. It had a big red sash  around the bottom of it, it was amazing. Very nice are you up this way or are they down your way? He did a fancy dress party last year, we were getting the bus there and back though so had a valid excuse, couldn’t be getting on the bus dressed as Fred Flinstone or something, looking foreword to seeing your mum dolled up as an elf . If you’re with your ma today give her kiss from me and Jackie ?

Wish we were closer to it to go and have a wander around. Being in Liverpool it’s a bit of a treck.

I'm down here for the weekend. Took mumsy to The Empire yesterday to see Les Miserables. Off to the Evanwood for lunch then I'm off back home again... best thing about the new job is no weekends or shifts so I can get home more often ❤ She just blew a kiss back and said she will see you soon ? Her turning up as a bloody elf would have been hysterical ?

its not just round the corner for me but 45mins ish isn't so bad .... it is one of the fortunate things about being a somerset resident though ...nothing going on at the moment just quite a few puddles around pyramid but lovely blue skys .... even the most hardened cant turn that into a headliner theory ... and before ELO gets a mention ... no

Maybe she can settle the Foals vs 1975 as headliner debate when she gets here. ?

[henry bear]

Bet she’d speak more sense than most here!

[Matt42]

I’ve gone and turned on notifications for both glasto twitter and Emily Eavis.

Feel it’s a good idea in these next coming weeks.

Mine wouldn't. It'd start off as Foals v 1975 and turn into 10 pages of stories about my aunt's sciatica 

[Matt42]

I’m gonna post something inflammatory because I’m bored.

I reckon there’s gonna be an announcement tomorrow in a bookstore!  Just like there were posters of Stormzy in Oxfam last year.

I can see us getting a headliner this side of the year and then either a headliner or an act of some higher slot (the rock slot?) before the first poster.

I'm thinking they might focus on promoting the book for the next few weeks then reveal something big in late November/early December. I just think they'll want to maximise the book sales right now and not take any attention away from that.

That said, there might be a couple of minor reveals during the book tour.
