and The Mahones commented with 3 hearts - so I take that as a self confirmation 🙂

Great if so, but I can't move for FB music threads recently with 3 Mahones hearts. 🤔

Is there anymore rumours flying around for this yet? I find it strange there are no rumours when for G we normally know half line up before the announcement!

They said a while ago they were trying to book as many of those who were booked for 2020 so I guess we know lots already hence no rumours.

I thought that but just check and last year the 4th was the Friday so maybe they got the year confused.

So main stage only?

That what it says in the text of the post.

Just came to post this. Anyone else feel just slightly meh? Hope is that the three subs are not announced yet?

[Gnomicide]

Guessing The Mission must be the Thursday night act, delighted they're back.

Very typical Bearded line-up, don't think there's anyone I'm excited to see that I haven't already seen at the festival. 

Interesting that that is only The Pallet, still the sub headliners to come... yeah. Happy.

Yeah thats what I thought...some decent stuff but didnt blow me away. Not really that bothered to be honest, just being there will be enough.

In very small print it does say that all the subheadliners are yet to be announced though

[Gnomicide]

Thanks @sparkythetortoise.

Interesting The Mission are on early doors on Friday.  

[Johnnyseven]

No announcements for the Magical Sounds tent either yet it seems.

Bearded Theory isn't one of the festivals I normally go to but I really like the line up so far.

[Johnnyseven]

I'm disappointed Black Lace aren't still on the line up though.

[Paul ™]

Brilliant line up for me personally, 2 of my fav acts headline my fav festival...and still 3 huge subs to come and a lot more... Including more on Thursday too I believe

Was a little underwhelmed with the announcement this morning but still plenty TBA.  Going off the BT Chat on Facebook looks like there will be a shorter period between this announcement and the next one.  Looking forward to Dubioza Kolektiv, saw them at BT in 2018.

Can't wait to get back though, great little festival...and opening a day earlier this time too!

Its an absolutely cracking festival...small site, incredible crowd, great beer choice (but you can take your own drink in the arena)...you won't regret it

I've considered it before as I've heard good things and the line ups look fun but it's always the same thing of both my missus and mates not wanting to go. I almost managed to convince some of my group in 2017 when it had Seasick Steve, Madness, Slaves and Skunk Ananise playing but then a bloody wedding came up.

Talking my other half into going to a new festival is like trying to nail a fart to a cloud but after the first Bearded we went to when we got back to the car on the last day she asked if tickets were on sale for the next year...its that kind of place. Compared to most festivals its not such hard work, you are probably never more than 10-15 minutes from where you want to be, no queues at the bars, toilets are fine...but the main thing is the dickhead v lovely people is so low its virtually negligible.

I'm hoping they will be confirmed later, as 80s cheese is a must 🙂

I reckon end of the month

[Chrisp1986]

Who are we going for with the subs then?

It was 'supposed' to be You Me At Six, Toots and Johnny Marr.

 

Maybe they have kept hold of the two but who will replace Toots? I have a feeling that You Me At Six maybe a little big for a sub now and are now an arena sized act who may demand too high fee for BT?

[Gnomicide]

I spotted The Maytals Band on a festival line-up somewhere so they're still going without Toots but no doubt they'd be lower down the bill.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's a whole new trio, otherwise why not announce them with the rest of the line-up?
