It has just been posted on FIB's Facebook page that there will be another announcement on Tuesday.

[louiec96]

someone commented this on the FIB Facebook page. Surely too good to be true?!

ok im not sure how to post the picture, but someone put a fairly realistic looking poster with Blur, stereo phonics, courteneers, ST Vincent and Jamie T, Madeon, and Square pushers added

Yeah I saw that too, but notice the spelling mistake in 'Noel Gallagher's Hight Flying Birds'.

It's fake.

[louiec96]

Yeah, thought the alignment of band names was pretty sloppy as well

[wedgie]

Reckon we're getting the same headliner as Leeds with both festivals announcing on Tuesday? It looks like libertines could be potentially co headlining with someone as they placed below avicii at T in the Park so maybe we'll get the co headline act to go with libs

[Createur]

Libertines will not play at FIB. Mainland Spain exclusive at Low Festival.

Chances of Jamie T? And is there actually a chance we could get Blur?

[louiec96]

I'd say there's a very good chance of Jamie T.

Possibly Blur (would love it) although I suspect that The Prodigy are the marquee heheadliners, and the last one will be someone pushed up like the Vaccines

[jackfg]

Thankyou! Would love to see Blur, but I think The Vaccines are a decent headliner and i wouldn't complain

[giantwagon]

I think Blur will do what the Libs did last summer; Hyde Park and a few European fests. Just hoping that, like the Libs, they do Beni because I can't make their Hyde Park show

[jackfg]

Anyone know what time the announcement is tomorrow?

[giantwagon]

Afraid not, although I'd imagine it'll be late afternoon/early evening

[giantwagon]

Who are people expecting/hoping for on the undercard?

I reckon some relatively realistic hopes for me are:

The Cribs

Catfish and the Bottlemen

Peace

Drenge

Happyness

DFA1979

Would also love it if we got Editors and/or Frank Turner, but won't hold my breath on those

[Gingerlord]

Well going on acts not already playing in Spain etc that are active this year, I'd love to see any of these:

Radiohead/Atoms For Peace

Blur

The Libertines

Of Monsters And Men

Beck

Coldplay

AND....... A long shot but they're in Spain a couple of weeks before....

KISS

[pigshair123]

Facebook page suggests the announcement is in the morning

Am I the only one trying to banish any thoughts of Blur from my mind, as to not be so disappointed when it doesn't happen?

On a separate note, would love to see weezer onthe bill, best band I've ever seen live.

[andytommo]

Over the years, most announcements have been at midday Spanish time, so 11am UK time is most likely, although I read somewhere that Reading/Leeds are also making an announcement tomorrow, so if it is all a big Blur EU festival announcement, maybe it will all be done at one time. Keep any eye open though between 11-11.30am

Cheers! According to efestivals RandL The Libertines

[giantwagon]

R&L will announce The Libertines at 7 so that announcement is pretty irrelevant here.

Am I the only one trying to banish any thoughts of Blur from my mind, as to not be so disappointed when it doesn't happen?

On a separate note, would love to see weezer onthe bill, best band I've ever seen live.

I agree with both of these points

Hoping for:

Vaccines

Swim Deep

Stereophonics

Fatboy

Catfish

Circa Waves

Miles Kane

...and of course Blur but it looks like the big money has already been spent.
