Glastonbury announcement or not, pretty confident they'd sell out this festival very quickly.

I reckon they would still announce it but one big factor would be the 6.5 hours travel to get there. Even the Liverpool lot are shaving over hours plus off that.

The 1975 announcement would have to come first. If they get announced after Glastonbury do then you've got a lotta people who already have tickets to see them.

I doubt the overlap is that much of an issue. It looks to be their only other UK date, it would be fine

 

There's no way its announced after glasto anyway

[osymyso]

Sorry for chronicle spam. In short it's just an article about come together and it's intentions to bring huge acts to Newcastle.

There's a ballot for Robbie tickets, including this date, on Tickets for Good right now. He's a patron of the company, so could be a good allocation.

Quite early for this kind of thing, wonder if it is doing appallingly or just because he's a patron

It's for all of his UK dates, so probably the latter.

 

Pixies have a ballot open too for their dates, that doesn't close until May.

[brettredmayne]

With 3 days to still announce, it's been a long time with no new information 

 

Only 5 months to go really so must be confident at shifting the last 3 dates

Well if 1975 rumours are true, they've sold at least 2 tickets for one of the dates already! 

[DannyEFC]

We expecting many more additions?

 

I’ve got tickets for the Robbie Williams day (for her) and whilst I don’t hate Kaiser Chiefs a few more decent bands would make the day tolerable.

From your day I like Andrew Cushin and Nell Mescal. 

 

Kings of Leon day is where I'd like some additions! Deciding whether to go with my friends who already have tickets, but I'm waiting to see what the rest of the day looks like

[49Lawson]

Looks like AC/DC was sadly a bridge too far

In theory, there's 3 days between Robbie and KOL waiting for someone to fit in. Unless it was merely a banner and there wasn't necessarily the plan for all five days to have acts performing.

Seem to be giving the two dates a big push atm

Shame if this ends up being another Newcastle festival canceled because of ticket sales

Email sent today 

 "Get ready for 5 unforgettable days of live music  as Newcastle's Town Moor transforms into the UK's ultimate festival destination!" 

 

Must be some big hitters 

 

[brettredmayne]

Thinking of possible acts , if pulp do Glastonbury that could be a good pick.

 

Didn't do the north east on the reunion , really hoping for something soon

Oooo they could be a shout. They're presumably going to be doing more than just Tramlines, even if nothing is public yet.

I mean, June will be here before we know it. Might be an idea for them to get their skates on.

 

... or at least for the embargo against announcing it to be lifted. I'm aware it's all done in a sequence.

You don't want to be getting into match with events to announce.

 

Loads of people will have booked other events 

[NorthernSoul52]

Could have done with snatching another one of those stadium acts to bolster this at the top end.

 

But an intriguing prospect awaits. Will be curious who they do pull out at this juncture.

Precisely. Unless there's a strict embargo or something, we've still got 3 headline dates lying around and it's curious how long its taking to get round to announcing it.
