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

Bit odd quoting yourself

Why? I don't care if people like different to me

... Aaaaanyway,  I'll be unavailable when the lineup is announced and I want to make sure there's a few more on it that'll be worth going for; do we reckon it's likely to sell out pretty quickly once it's announced or are there usually tickets still available?

I know this is difficult to guess in a year like this but...any ideas/thoughts? Ta!

I think any medium festival that has remaining tickets will sell out once their lineup is announced this year (as people are desperate for some sort of release this summer - I know I am) - fingers crossed they actually happen

Would be surprised if Ashcrofts there, I don't know how much have an impact it has but he's now playing Splendour in Nottingham and Tramlines in Sheffield the week before, surely he won't headline 3 festivals in a 30 mile radius over two weekends 😄(He wasn't booked for Splendour '20 when he was announced for Y Not, they had James/Supergrass headlining and have now replaced James with Ashcroft).

The image NG used on his announcement looked a lot like the Y Not font/colours, though that could be nothing but seemed coincidental timing, if I had to take a (possibly optimistic) guess The Streets/Royal Blood/NGHFB.

You're probably right about Ashcroft. However, he wasn't signed on to Tramlines until very recently. So Y Not may have already had him at that point. Considering the same booker they likely got a good deal on him. 

It seems Y Not has also been waiting on a third headliner and agents being twats. (educated guess based on what Tramlines just gone through) 

It could be Noel but its not often acts do pre announcements for anything other than their own things like new music and tours. 

I got a feeling a lot of festival line ups are samey and lackluster because acts/agents think they are likely to be cancelled. They are not wanting the hassle of either committing for 2 years, renegotiating or having grief from fans when they announce the cancellation of the event.

Don't really care who the headliners are tbf - I'd be happy with any of the main headliners from Tramlines / Kendal / Truck 

Hoping for some acts like DMA's, Lathums, The snuts, Sports team, The slow readers club etc etc though (and not be stupidly relegated to the Thursday - which I've always found a bizarre concept anyway for a smaller festival, three days is enough with what they have onsite)

[pwalton89]

Wonder if they are sharing an act  with boardmasters alwith them announcing Thursday too just an hour before

From what I know, phonics DMA’S rudimental kooks 

Is that all you know for this years 

[Conners2390]

Yeah all I’ve been told so far, I know blossoms were 100 percent confirmed Thursday headliners last year unsure if they are this year but wouldn’t be surprised 

[Alex Winstone]

Bloc Party? 

[twinmaker]

I'm not bothered about the headliners. I spend most of my weekend in the Squid so it's the acts towards the bottom of the poster that I'm interested in!

I was thinking:

Royal blood / Ashcroft/ Stereophonics 

Kooks/ Rudimental/ DMAs as the subs 

I doubt there's a huge amount of change on the undercard.

Surely Blossoms are going to get a run out on the main stage this year?

Main stage - but wouldn't be surprised if they get shunted to Thursday. Daft imo if so.

Can't imagine Ashcroft playing Splendour, Tramlines and YNot - all within spitting distance of each other.

New Noel song today, could be a possibility that he goes here as no dates right now

I always say it but I never really get what people expect for the money.

Not forgetting Y Not as reduced it capacity by 10k as well 

So the line up will reflect that
