Re Suede - they're usually very precious about their billing/playing long sets at festivals. I'd guess they haggled for a sub slot over NBT, but the organisers figured it'd sell more tickets to list NBT higher. Glasto put Janet Jackson on the top billing in 2019 when she was third down, so I'd imagine it's a bit like that.

They were very specific about their billing even saying the time!! Probably is Sam Fender, Suede as the top 2.  Probably Anne-Marie, Becky Hill on at the same time as them

I’ve re-listened to the radio interview. Re the Friday he says -“there’s still a lot of acts to come. I think it might be a sell-out” so I’m not convinced it’ll be one massive name in that slot. Looking at the Superstruct Fests and who’s around my guess is still Shed Seven for that slot.

Connect fest line up announcement today.  Same weekend as victorious, wonder if we’ll get any cross over?  Chemical brothers, idlewild again?

Victorious have their headliners so it’s not going to be The Chemical Brothers.  Ride could slot in on the friday

Agreed, idlewild were fantastic a few years back at victorious.  Would love to see them back but like you say, 100 broken windows please

I’m guessing going by the numbers on the poster there isn’t actually that much left to announce on the main 2 stages?!

Do we think festivals will book him given his fairly recent past?

Edit: If you’re referring to Tom Meighan of course

yes.been plenty in past and will still be in future.still a lot of love for him and has served his time in  eyes of many and wife

[Dales]

Sure he said some where that he was playing festivals. Can't say, I have seen anyone advertising him. It might be a case of the first few to book him take some flack and no one wnats to go first.

The slot is third down under James. 

I can't see it being him. Especially with Self Esteem playing below whoever it is, who's extremely femanist playing below a guy kicked out his band for beating up a woman. Victorious being a family festival as well. Won't be him.

My main guess of Shed Seven looks less likely now as they didn’t include it on the list of Festivals they we’re playing.

Hoping it’s not the Karzi Chefs.

[sisco]

Tickets go up again at the end of the month so wondering if there’ll be another few acts announced soon to spur people on the buy

[kelstar]

Has anyone seen the facbook post of them painting letters....could this be a clue, as they like to sometimes announce acts by putting song lyrics up where the Victorious Letters go. The did this a few times before?

Thanks for bringing this to my attention

Its always a song not band name. 

@sisco its the guy painting the letters on a table

So there is visable in the picture and I believe each letter is there twice as its used both sides.

In White - RR EE EE NN HH on one table

In White - SS CC AA II on another table 

In White - MM DD on another table

In Orange C O 

In Blue R and another letter you cant make out

In Green a letter you cant make out

In Yellow a letter you cant make out.

So thats R E E N H S C A I M D C O R ? ? ? 

Edited cus I think the coloured ones are for Victorious somewhere else on site. As the sign is always all White and you can see hes painted the blue as theres a blue tin of paint and hes painting the white ones white.

leaving the White as R E E N H S C A I M D

So I had a quick look back

In 2017 we had IT MUST BE LOVE for Madness

In 2018 we had GOOD VIBRATIONS for Brian Wilson

So 12 letters and 14 letters 

Don't think we had this since but maybe we did and I forgot. 

R E E N H S C A I M D is 11 letters unless theres more missing

 

Here's the pic btw
