Yeah it would be strange, specially with the balance out in April, I’d expect a big run of festival dates.. are you thinking it might be them then?

It’d be fitting as they’ve headlined all the other Global festivals on the last album and they could’ve been leading up to this on their new album. But idk, the clue doesn’t seem to fit.

They already headlined that last year or year before. They’ve done them all now at this point, maybe Standon Calling aside.

Possible then. Did they headline it in 2017?

[luckysalt]

I guess it all depends on did 6music have old info or the right info, weird they would have the wrong info last week on announcement day but I guess it could be old info. But if their info is correct still. Its a solo male artist who isn't young.

There due boardmasters again. They did same with Kendal last year, they played 2016 and came back. Did exactly same with Ynot too last year. It all doesn’t fit with that radio 6 interview but I think that was absolute crap, just a way of making people start speculating.

It 100% wasn't crap, it's correct, at least at one point it was correct. The question is, is it still correct or did things change. That is still to be answered.

Fair enough, we probably won’t have long to wait. Couple of week maybe. Let’s see how it pans out with boardmasters and trsmt etc see if that’s anything that could be to go by.

Could it be Morrissey? Reckon he’s probably about the right size for this?

Morrissey has a mandate that no meat be sold or stored on festival grounds during his set. He's put this demand on a number of festivals. Think Vict / Broadwick / Global would give in to the demands or maybe he's gone softer, more open-minded? 

[KBR1991]

Could anything on here mean anything for us? A few we can rule out for iow cross over. 

[TrueBlue2019]

Cant believe it would be Roger Waters, he's just finished a massive 157 date world tour earning $200+ million.

However, fitting the radio clue, how about Bryan Ferry? He's playing Rewind a month earlier, is an old solo Male and has a water connotation to his name. Also, The Stranglers are on the same Rewind lineup & would fit the Victorious demographic.

Still think Chic are a possible and I have a gut feel for Fatboy Slim

Fat boy slim? Would be cool, but isn’t he at iow

@luckysalt I made a start on the clashfinder just because I didn't see one up, but it's all public so feel free anyone on here to edit it, just trying to help out.

[eFestivals]

victorious are opening up more of the site on the Friday - i guess to squeeze more people in than they've had in previous years.

2 years ago they only had 2nd stage open, last year they only had main stage open, this year they're opening main stage and this extended part, world music village is a fair bit away from main stage, it's pretty close to second stage. Wouldn't surprise me when we get to 2020 the second stage is open as well as the main.

It's cool, but like I said it's all a bit of the unknown at the moment to start doing one, I'd say April we will be better off. 

[luckysalt]

I just ordered my tickets, decided to go anyway so may as well get them now before they bump up the prices, can't imagine it will be long before they do. Interesting that they've changed it this year and they don't send you the tickets immediately instead saying they will be sent in the month leading up to the festival. £210 for 2 weekend tickets. You can't moan this line up for £105 IMO. Well you can. But some people moan about everything.

It's also between the main entrance (for people walking from the city anyway who I'd think would account for most Friday tickets?) and the main stage, so maybe it's bringing that into play? I can't remember if that was open last year, it certainly wasn't the first Friday. There's no reason why they shouldn't get more people in there, they just need the infrastructure to keep up which might include another entrance.

Good shout Bryan Ferry. Don Henley could also fit the bill?

David Byrne another possibility. That would be great.

Listening to the clue with the water it also sounded like bubbles. A song by   biffy clyro? Or could be catfish

Bubbles? Perhaps its Michael Jackson

I thought when I listened again it sounded more like a can of spray paint or something ha ha. Whatever it is, it ain't helping.
