Four Tet and Floating Points are both on the festival circuit - would be very surprised to not see them on the first poster.

Give me Phoebe Bridgers or give me Coronavirus.

87+ please. Earliest poster ever with the biggest number of acts ever. Big middle finger to Corona

And I can imagine a fair few of those won't be on the poster as there's a lot of regulars that don't get poster time.

Give us the surprises.

Just going to be a few acts rather than a poster isn't it?

Why a few acts instead of a poster?

I'd take anything right now tbh. Just great that the festival is showing signs of life!

Didn't Emily say at an event the next announcement is the poster?

Emily seemed to suggest at the NME awards the next announcement was the poster?

Zoe seemed to hint it was a full poster and Neil couldnt confirm one way or another

Pretty sure Zoe just said Announcement rumours? 

[thrillhouse188]

What time did Zoe Ball hint? Is it possible the rumours she was referring to came from Neil? 😅

Yea, I think she mentioned it after Neil's comments/tweets

who's Neil? How do we know his evidence or sources are correct?

Newbies make me chuckle...

[Tuna]

Circumstances have changed since the NME awards, and Neiler hinted that the announcement might have been bought forward from what was planned as a result. So I wouldn't be entirely confident it's a poster, and could be a smaller announcement with a bunch of bands.
