LAWKS! It's the next announcement thread

[Helsbels]

2007 was a horrendous wet year, pretty much non stop, my second Glasto, getting washed out of 3 festivals that year meant I didnt go to any in 2008. I do remember putting it on tv on the Friday and being absolutely gutted. Didnt realise 2009 wasnt an instant sell out

Ticket sale dates have usually been announced by now, right? 😳

Think the queens death might have delayed things, however I was expecting something yesterday.

Hopefully Emily will do an interview somewhere. It feels like she’s been less prominent in the media than usual over the last festival cycle. She’s been known to put any big rumours to bed quite early on in the past.

but there aren't any big rumours for her to put to bed. spice girls have already killed off their own rumour.

Who's first then? Arctic Monkeys the closest thing to nailed on, must be them announced first, surely?

Yep reckon we'll definitely get at least one announcement this side of Christmas. AM seems the most obvious one.

I’ve been thinking that since ticket sale day. Irrespective of official announcements  there’s been a distinct lack of informed and Ill informed rumours, leaks and bands self confirming in error. Thank god for beans on toast, Billy Bragg  and Mik Artistik!  Or maybe I’m just getting impatient with age😉

We need to start tweeting Carl Cox asking if he's playing next year and hopefully he'll let slip the complete line-up 🤣

The last 3 festivals, we'd have had the accommodation / live-in / local tickets by now - not sure we're on an exactly normal schedule.

Fair point, sales are later but they should still give us a headliner before Xmas please!

I’m going to be honest, having had to go through resales the last 2 festivals, I’m less bothered about when we get info this time around. 

It’ll drop when it drops, I’ve got a ticket, I’m happy. 

(Side note I’m supposed to be seeing Reg in April, so if they could let us know if he’s headlining before then that would be great, so I can sell my tickets!!).

[Avalon_Fields]

Maybe it's going to be a Karaoke Glastonbury, Michael will be spinning the discs, entertainment is....us!

Can anyone sing on here?

I don’t know if anybody remembers the old Bestival forums but maybe we could hit up Howard Jones for a spot of HoJo hits?
