find out in an hour whether we get them today or not - I've got the extra jera on air names (press club!) so kind of happy with those for now... but could do with the last drop by the end of the week.

yeah, I've got a lot of overlap already (Wide Awake, Lambrini Girls solo gig), so some different names wouldn't hurt.

The website is/has being updated….

So normally an announcement in 40'. 

I really hope all the rumours will be proven wrong! 🙂

[Kempleton]

Would we usually expect the stage splits in the next announcement? I’m probably more interested in that than in any potential additions.

The next announcement should be the full thing really with the splits.

 

Pray for 13 mins

Normally yes (but without the timetable just yet). Assuming this will be the final big drop as expected.

So was about an hour or so ago…… Almost Monday and another moved into alphabetical order some of the slope names disappeared and then they did say a gap appeared between Fender and  Raye (I want to believe it)

 

 

 But of course no doubt dissapointment 😂

There's definitely previous form with this. It might have been RW, there was one festival where the app was updated a few hours before each announcement.

It’s happened for each of the announcements so far (including the last one where they released it 3 hours too early and then removed it again)

Not to add fuel to the fire, but the last time they were doing the “new music Friday” posts on their story rather than their main Instagram was the last day they announcement. Could be promising

I’m choosing to believe this is accurate and going to 100% happen. 

[MiloAFC]

Fingers crossed today's the day.

There's not a thing some of you guys have control of 😉 Let's see if it happens, but kudos for the Sherlock Holmes work anyway 😉

Looks like nothing today.

 

See you all in two weeks?

[Kempleton]

Wow, they’re really dragging this out, aren’t they?

Well if it’s actually right they don’t announce in the holidays then won’t be getting anything till WC 17th March.  At this rate the Glastonbury poster will beat it!!

Yup, nearly 3 weeks behind the final announcement last year. Slope wasn't until 28th February but it was the last part and the lineup announced as full just after. I think by this time, Sundays 3rd and 4th down main stage bands were the only bands announced on any day above 4th main stage. 

 

Interesting too, Saturday had sold out by 22nd January last year and all Friday to Sunday by March 12th. Combi sold out 18th June. Thursday tickets never did sell out with Thursday with Friday definitely taking the longest to reach sell out.

It all makes sense now. They can’t announce The 1975 before Glastonbury!

 

Obviously I’m not being serious.

 

In the absence of new announcements, I’ve listened to more of the Slope acts, and I’m enjoying Allie X and Somebody’s Child. This is a bit of a bonus for me because that gives me something to watch on Sunday (hopefully between Wunderhorse and Overmono).

Yeah I have to say I’ve been impressed with what I’ve found on the slope overall.  Have 22 acts i actually want to see and then still more I’d catch if there were gaps.  I mainly want the announcement for the stage breakdown
