Just means they haven’t been able to get radio 1 or similar to give them free publicity

Would be a f**king excellent addition as a one off though eh.

Or its just basic twitter marketing?

Yup, when you have no larger market. Preaching to the choir can't be their first choice of outlet, given 90% of the choir who follow them will be calling it shite, even if they manage to announce Kurt Cobain!

The reception to her being announced at boardies was mixed - can see a similar response here with a similar demographic 

especially without the ‘by the sea relaxing vibes” that boardmasters tries to book a few acts for each year

Must have been - I took the screenshot last night but couldn’t post it due to limited service at a hozier gig

Wouldn’t be a massive ticket shifter for sure. They could do with another female name though and she’s bigger than Halsey isn’t she?

Paramore are more of an MSW headliner nowadays I'd say. Similar vein to Biffy, QOTSA and Foals.

Courtneeners rumoured, if you expect more than the stature of Courteeners and are attending, I would advise you to lower your expectations

I thought this was a sign that the announcement was about to be imminent, but yet, we're still waiting.

I've not seen much about this. If it turns out to be true it would be very underwhelming but then like Biffy and The 1975 they're always a crowd pleaser, they've got a huge rapport with the festival and they're British so more reliable without all the hassle of the logistics of flying them over, and probably cheaper too. I think Royal Blood or Kasabian would be better choices for acts of that nature.

They've just outsold all of them easily.
