Their website is a departure board with all the festival slots so far listed and one 'pending'. 

Gotta be Glasto?

I signed up to Foo Fighters mailing list many, many years ago. Checked there and haven't had an email from them since their last EP was released. So can rule anything out from there unless I've randomly been removed.

Trying to crack the code!!!!!! The first letters are GL, last is Y, so trying to see if the rest is just random?

I'm wondering if everyone who bought Glastonbury tickets will get sent an email with a code at 6pm on 21st Feb, and we can then "check in" to see the announcement?

Let's hope not. I'm too busy receiving spam.

Saying "visit foofighters.com and enter this code to find out the next act to be announced for Glastonbury Festival 2017"?

Was about to say it was a good shout by Jo Balls but lmao this is true. Thinking maybe Foos mailing list peeps will get an email with the code or something.

No, I'm guessing it will come from the website "obeliskairlines.com" and will look like a flight check in of some sort. If you type the obelisk airlines website address on that boarding pass above, it links back to FF website.

I see. I didn't realise they'd reg'd the website but it'd still be kinda futile as soon as you hit the link and it's the Foo Fighters webpage.  

I looked up Obelisk Airlines to see the hype and they've got a Tweeter account set up for it with a picture of a Pan-Am stewardess so 2+2=US tour.

That boarding card has seat 02 printed on it...2nd pyramid headliner... Saturday night?

Also says "Smoking XX" - The XX subbing?

Or maybe they're playing the...O2?

Or they could be headlining the main stage at the Obelisk arena at Latitude?

That would be a massive coup for Latitude! 

Also I got an email from Latitude yesterday which says their lineup is announced on March 1st... which doesn't link with the Feb 21st date.

Maybe it's the hangover but I see seat 2A on the boarding card.

 

xx is also the norm on boarding cards under the smoking section so I would not read anything into that.

I can't imagine Glastonbury/Seetickets are handing over 135,000 email addresses to Foo Fighters to link to their website (leaving aside the Data Protection issues).
