They gonna announce this officially before Friday?

based on having been screamed at this morning, probably.

based on what was said by screaming? Nope, definitely not.

Who knows? :lol:

I see Massive Attack have been announced for Mad Cool, they're another decent shout for the Friday

When I saw they were announcing an act from Bristol I was gonna say if it's Massive Attack or Portishead they must be a shout for this. People seemed to be expecting Idles though so I didn't bother.

Massive Attack for APE and Gorillaz for Latitude I can see. Or maybe the other way around idk.

[Hugh Jass]

It had better not be Radiohead, my wallet and marriage couldn't take a fourth night in Victoria Park.

[Amy Lawn]

I like the look of Big Pat's chances for this.

Weren't the tickets for Nick Cave meant to go on sale today? I get the feeling that's not happening anymore then

there was a bit of a fuss the other day about that ticket page having gone up.

I believe the show is definitely still happening.

[tjamest]

See tickets link now saying "Event not found" Probably still happening, they may be waiting to finalise the final day and then announce them both?

Does anyone know when Field Day was on if there were discounted prices for those in the local area to keep them happy/stop noise complaints? I've no intention of making a complaint or anything and will more than likely still buy a full price ticket; just thought it was worth an ask as I live a mile from Victoria Park and know some festivals have done similar!

Yep they do some free locals tickets through a ballot. This year it was for Field Day, Lovebox and Citadel. Not sure on how local you have to be, I imagine you'll get something through the post if they do it again.

Excellent, will keep my eyes peeled on the letterbox; cheers!

Couldn't resist and got tickets for Friday and Sunday. Cannot wait

Probably too soon after their arena dates but given Goldenvoice are promoting that tour, I wonder if Arcade Fire are a possibility for this too?

They played BST back in 2014.

Probably be latter festivals, surely? I'd have thought they're in the frame for Reading and Leeds now

Yeah gotta be later fests. Hopefully R+L but realistically that means sacrificing Kendrick.

I'd have thought Kendrick is far more popular than Arcade Fire at the moment, especially to the modern R+L-goers. Also I couldn't think of any other festival Kendrick would appear at (except maybe IoW) as he is probably too big to do Wireless

If V festival are hoping to re-brand and get some credibility back this summer he seems like basically the ideal candidate for that. He's the name i'd be gunning for, anyway.

Yep I was just gonna reply with this. Although Finn is definitely right that Kendrick is more popular with R+L goers so maybe not best move for R+L but better for FR on the whole.

Friday I’m in Bow? Or filling a hole at Latitude?

I reckon there'll be a middling album to go along with tour dates in 2018

Ah they've been threatening that for years. I'll be surprised if there is ever another Cure album.

Nick Cave is definitely the second headliner 

Should be announced next week 

[eFestivals]

announcement at 7pm tonight. How they've updated the website suggests it's for 'presents' and not the festival.

Will be Nick Cave, I guess.
