Noel Gallagher is making an announcement on Thursday. He headlined in 2016 but could be a possibility 

That's the last time I went. Glorious sunshine all weekend.

Any hints for this one @JBarbour? 😉🤞

So Thursday’s lineup day. Email doesn’t say what time though. Final thoughts on who might be playing?

6pm

Think Royal Blood are certain 

Sadly Ashcroft probably is aswell

Tweet says 6pm.

Royal Blood seem to be everywhere this year so probably highly likely unless they want to go for something different to the others

He's hit and miss, seen him twice solo - he was amazing at Castlefield Bowl, and shite at Rock City.

I’d take both Ashcroft and Royal Blood with a huge smile. Really jealous of Tramlines lineup tbh.

I don't know this one! I think they got dealt with same hand Tramlines did announcing this late. So that could be indication they sharing an act or two. 

I might know tomorrow though, but that will be an embargo so no chance I can tease as much. 😄

Can Royal Blood really afford to have another festival booked with an arena tour coming up?

I'll say again though, that May 7th on sale date is a strange one.

Considering everything they missed last year, they may be making up for lost time. Either way, I’ll know on Thursday whether I need to get tickets for next years tour or not.

I get that. But it's strange to announce a tour with tickets going on sale two weeks later. It's almost as if they aren't allowed on sale until the festivals they play have announced. But also, it looks like it's been timed with a cut off point for those festivals saying yes or not for this year meaning people will jump on the tour,

[JBarbour]

Every festival that announcing Royal Blood is just making the festival scene look weaker and weaker this year. 

It's not like its slim pickings for UK acts wanting a payday 😄

Dam all these festivals with the same bookers. I hope Y Not branches off from the Tramlines, Truck and Victorious booker, going proper independent now they not part of the same company.  

[jannybruck]

Yeah I'm surprised at how little variety there's been across many of the announced festivals so far this summer. There's so many 'dormant'/off album cycle UK acts that could have had a serious easy payday just getting back in the rehearsal room and doing one or two exclusives.

Royal Blood I guess are looking to use these regional headliners as a good advert for their own tour next year.

 

[BlackFoxx]

Noel, Royal Blood, Ashcroft then?

Yeah maybe a good promo tool, but people soon at fed up of seeing acts tour the small/mid/regional festivals (see The Libs, Noel, Stereophonics, Courteeners).

I'm over-here knocking Royal Blood when its The Streets that look to be going OTT with festivals this year 😄

It's an announcement for new music releasing on record store day I believe - can't see it. 

[Ethan_Crossley96]

Can’t be exactly same as Tramlines headliner wise, can it?

Is this from a source because I’d be very very happy with that

Phonics Rudimental and Kooks as headliners presumably. DMAs sub. But not for me.

[Conners2390]

Unsure if headliners, presumably stereophonics and the kooks. Fontaine’s dc dmas imagine are Cheif support. Yes from same source that told me royal blood last year

Why are you making a point because someone doesn't have the same interests as you? @Ethan Crossley?
