interesting to note 2019, 2020 and 2022 had these next 2 weeks as a dry spell - although every year before those had announcements, with 9? in 2013!

Probably because they'd already confirmed some big names earlier in the 3/4 previous announcements.

The 9 acts in 2013 came with the announcement of the Dance Village being renamed Silver Hayes.

Feel like it's been Silver Hayes for longer than that! Learn something new every day.

You haven't stopped whinging on in this thread for about 3 months now. 

 

If you didn't post rubbish I wouldn't have to whinge back at you.

i feel TODAY might be a good day for a little tickle of announcement's from the farm !!!!

Just a hunch or do you know something we don't..?

[DareToDibble]

I am surprised we’ve not had a confirmation from the festival of any of the ones who have self confirmed. Blondie likely to be next officially announced? Feels like the legend slot gets announced fairly early every year.

Not always the case but they tend to follow up self confirmations with an official announcement if it's a reasonably big act that puts the date on their own website and leaves it there.

Could equally still be rod …. I guess they don’t feel that these are big enough announcements… same with gnr ?

Fair point in the legend.

But any time they announce a headliner it will be big news - even if it’s not necessarily what the majority of us on here want.

Yeah true … but on that basis we would get 3 headliners or more every year before the poster … and we don’t

We don't know they're officially headlining 2023 until the festival announce it.

Only in the same way we don't know a team winning 10-0 in the 90th minute has won until the whistle blows.

Fair enough. I'm just not yet willing to resign myself to them headlining, as likely as it seems. I still have hope.

Surely Blondie aren’t the legend. They played second act on the other a few years back

They're not - but just for the laughs on here I hope they are legends.

Hopefully not, maybe other Friday opener or an another afternoon slot on that stage.

They're probably not.

But in the absence of actual information, people jump to (in this case almost certainly incorrect) conclusions.
