Have you all seen this

I was thinking if anyone was going to book him, it'd be one of this lot's festivals, so that'd make sense to me.

Or Rewind, which has 2 of their 3 festivals in August.

There’s something so wild of the thought of everybody on castle field screeching “I’m too sexy for my shirt…”

This is likely to be Back2 Festival August Bank Weekend

Right Said Fred would be a great afternoon booking, not as the special guest, but after it, 30 min set. Would be fun

Fatboy Slim being confirmed has really killed the chat eh? 😂

As he's busy Saturday he's surely headlining the Friday.

I imagine he will be the biggest name announced.

I reckon Madness could be back next year, been a while and they seem very busy. 

Madness under Fatboy could be fun, or them headlining castle opposite him.

Because it's bought us back down to Earth and reality after talking about the dizzy heights of Pulp, Kings of Leon etc.

It will look even more underwhelming if he goes on to be named for Truck, Y Knot and other smaller festivals.

So you still thinking Catfish, or they pulled out to do Reading?

Be first time Reading and Leeds have a headliner playing Victorious as well same weekend, usually they don't even share ANY acts at all, let alone a headliner, there's been the odd exception, Bastille was one but in the past 10 years plus, there's been maybe 5 acts total that have played both the same weekend.

I heard on the grapevine that there was a cancellation

Madness are playing Southampton Summer Sessions in June, would that rule them out?

There's no way Fatboy will be the biggest name announced - he's smaller than all 3 of this year's headliners.

I do think he will headline friday tho

Last year it was about a week after the sign went up on castle field.

I reckon Friday at 12pm. And yes, I agree that there will be bigger headliners than Norman. Although I'm surprised how long it's taken to get him, but I think that the vast majority of Victorious punters with be made up with him. 

[RiMo]

New Order playing in Manchester on the Saturday with Johnny Marr and Roisin Murphy - could be Sunday headliner a la 2019? 

[Terry Smith]

Prodigy are out they’ve just announced R&L

[SummerSolstice]

Fat boy slim is bigger than Jamiroquai in the UK.

pretty sure they were out the second they were confirmed as isle of wight headliners

Got my little fingers crossed for an announcement today at 12. The Echo will normally snafu and launch it at 11am instead.

Keep an eye on the Portsmouth News, They often reported it before Victorious facebook announces.
