Yeah I've done similar, got £15 at 12/1 for him to do Saturday. Also have £12.65 on him to headline any night at 5/1 so at least that's something but still a bit gutted if he plays Sunday.

There are some of us who have lost already due to no roses.

Can't imagine I'd ever be pleased that Ed was headlining, but a £200 profit might soften the blow. Fingers crossed for your bets guys.

Was having a wee chuckle looking through this list of 2007 Brits - https://www.buzzfeed.com/jamiejones/heres-what-the-brit-awards-looked-like-in-1997?utm_term=.togZEXglq#.uraVbxDEB

Blimey. Diana Ross, Bee Gee's, Jamiroquai

You were mad ever betting on the Stone Roses headlining. Will never happen.

They said the same about The Stones due to money.....rewind a couple of years....Probably U2 as well.

yeah that's the one think I'm due £200-£250 if he plays Saturday then. Would they payout on announcement or only after he has actually performed in case he drops out last minute?

[bennyk]

mate of mine who's quite close to the several bands, got us backstage at the park/other stage last year told us on Saturday that the park had the XX, Margo Price and Mark Lanegan. Wouldn't reveal anything else. 

Doesn't particularly bother me, but all adds to the fun and games

The xx would have to be a secret set, though they have form for it so not unimaginable.

[the wonderwhy]

Mark Lanegan is confirmed for Friday anyway

Surely xx too big for park? Definitely bigger than the other 2 you mention

Only way that is happening is if they have a TBA slot at another time

Quite possibly, as you can see I don't post on here too often, so I wouldnt come on parading rubbish, equally its not that exciting....Only going from what I've been told, but he gave me LCD on the Sunday a while before anything was even about. I want to believe him with Emily's comments around 'big things' for the park this year. We'll see

way too big for an announced set. they're Other headliners or Pyramid subs and nothing else.

No they didn't.

Roses not headlining is nothing to do with money anyway.
