I've just had a horrible thought.

DF love Snow Patrol, don't they?

Doesn't seem to be a band who's about. I think that the other headliner might be Foo Fighters. Someone mentioned them in this thread, didn't they? Might well be a shout.

They are free 8/9th. 

I'd be happy with them.

Radiohead, Foo Fighters and Coldplay would be very strong headliners!

I must admit that I'm quite excited to find out what the lineup is even though I'm not sure whether I will buy a full weekend ticket - I just hope it's not a major letdown like many of the T line-ups recently 

[MoonPie]

Radiohead, Foo Fighters, Biffy Clyro

Yes please.

I know Biffy have been around a lot lately, but they're just one of those bands I could watch for ever and not mind.

[Stuart1000]

Would Biffy play as undercard to Foos? Would be a very strong lineup (probably too strong) but I just can't see them selling well on their own on their 3rd headline show for the same album.

[harryomatic]

Foos are probably one of the acts that Biffy would consider playing beneath, but on Scottish soil I just don't see Biffy doing anything other headlining. 

[harryomatic]

Looking at TRNSMT's last two tweets, the loading bar was originally 1/3 full in their message yesterday, now 2/3 full today. So guessing line-up tomorrow?

[DomDom1984]

Might just be a countdown to tickets.

They're Wednesday 9am. I'm hoping we get at least one headliner before anything goes on sale as a last minute push.

It would make sense, what would be the point of people buying tickets to days they don't know who is playing?

[JBarbour]

Anyone spell a band out of them letters 

[MinionDave]

They have got to announce some acts before the tickets go on sale, without that all we know is that there is a 3-day fest in Glasgow green on 7~9 July.

Would any of you buy a ticket, without knowing any of the bands, having no history of the type of music being played, no maps/layout of the site, no access/parking/bus info, or as it's a new fest if it's even music.... i wouldn't 

I can imagine a few of the TitP nutters getting tickets to this on Wednesday, and then when they find out it's not Calvin F Harris going on a twitter-rant 

But apart from that, holiday request from the 9to5 going in today, one way or the other (likely the other) i'll be there.

ta, D

Ed Simons did tweet after the SECC gig 'Thank you Glasgow, we'll be back' or something similar

[SwedgeAntilles]

Chems would be great.

[DomDom1984]

"We'll be back" is a bit of a generic comment at gigs tbh. Biffy said "see you next year" which is closer, but again, so did Slipknot and that turned out to mean Download the year after too.

Numbers and letters on the left hand side, there is a 1, 8 and 2 so thats obviously Blink 182. And there is a spare A and 1 there to so thats A1 booked. Who are playing PKD Festival a week later so ties in. The 88 traditionally represents HH/Heil Hitler so possibly a Skrewdriver tribute act in the line up?

[harryomatic]

If were playing the letters game: ZZ - ZZ top, YYY - Yeah Yeah Yeahs, FF for Foo Fighters.

[eFestivals]

I could tell you when the announcement is, tho that might upset some folks so I won't.

But I have just spurned the opportunity for an embargo'd press release for it, because I'm bored with silly games.

Not today I'm guessing?

 

I take you and DF don't get along too well?
