i can't see Weyes Blood not being there, i bet she'll be on the final poster

I have tickets to see her on 10th June and still haven't heard anything. Should have a better idea of what her plans are soon!

I guess you underestimate who much work everyone in the music industry is doing right now. And bc noone is making money, many agency forloughed staff, so the remaining employees have even more work to do. Could well take another month or so to finalise the rescheduling for concerts planned for early June.

I had tickets to an Explosion in the Sky gig that was canceled two weeks after it was supposed to happen.

is Sunday going to be a full day now instead of being just the brunch thing? 3-day tickets not being an option is kinda weird

According to someone else he mentioned 2021 acts have opted for 2022 so its likely they have moved to then. 

Thanks. You think there‘s still room for a band like NIN? Headline seems pretty packed.

Oh I definitely understand that, didn't mean to sound impatient!

Not from what I can see unless certain bands are demoted.

But if they do Ill be front and centre. 

Same can be said for Portishead. The rumor they were good to go for 2021 floated around.

The one thing I'd add is that the festival is still over 12 months away and the potential for a Winter wave of Coronavirus remains, in turn potentially restricting international travel or making bands lose their nerve and change their plans.

Inevitably at least one headliner will pull out and this opens up room for a replacement.

There will definitely be more cancellations across the board than in a usual year.

Yeah but the Vaccines (Not the band, the thing) are coming, so it'll be ok i hope.

I'm also fully aware that this post makes this thread incredibly endangered of beieng overrun by tinfoil-hats but what can you do? 

[riseupandkill]

not to overplay it, and i know where xxialac is coming from of course - but with this news today i felt, for the first time in a few months, that there was a sunny future the other side of this 

and it felt GOOD.

Lineup for this is brilliant, and agree that its provided a much needed sense of optimism and something to look forward to it. Am I right in thinking tickets will be on sale early next month?

Yes, but I wouldn't rush into buying tickets personally. It's probably more sensible to keep an eye on how things are progressing over the next few months.

Ahh thanks I missed that - will it be at the Forum or the CCCP?

Yeah, totally with you buddy. Sorry, didn't mean to sound negative, only point was that the lineup will change up a bit, that's all! Of course every chance vaccine still not emerged by then but you have to keep going and stay positive when realistic hope is there.

I'm a believer....

This year's Sunday was scheduled to be some DJs etc on the beach.

[FloorFiller]

So what we thinking on Massive Attack? They were mentioned on the radio show right? And on the mail out poster... but for some reason not on the poster posted on social media. They in and were just supposed to be held back, or they out and have wrongly been announced? I'd personally prefer the latter for some mystery headliner excitement, but guessing it's most likely the former.

Perhaps the contractual side hasn't been fully signed and sealed yet. They were also planning an elaborate tour by land (not taking any planes) so more complicated for them to arrange and commit to.

Followed by an awesome closing party in town.

If my experience is anything to go by, most people are an absolute wreck by Sunday afternoon after 4 days of heavy festivalling and are after a low key afternoon.

Maybe they will announce an album and then they would be confirmed

[whos3000]

Never been a real gorillaz fan but I like the hits. Is there something I missed out about them recently than is making people excited?

Last couple albums have been trash, so no.
