    How have they not given a time yet?

    Cos they enjoy making us wait.

    Will it be a radio announcement again or will the new and improved (?) poster be thrust upon us? Time will tell..

    For the second year running, I won a weekend ticket, but not gone on the lineup, so won't go again!

    Sure I'll do you a favour and take it off your hands so. It'll just be taking up space for you!

    Facebook and Instagram post at midday, I would guess.

    New and improved poster, but no radio hubbub. That's usually just the first announcement, isn't it?

    Be great if this thread stayed quiet until the announcement so I could rely on the notification from here as the announcement!

    Only bit of hype about EP this morning are 2 articles by the Leinster Express:

    "Abbeyleix woman just 'holding' drugs which she sold at Electric Picnic"

    "More acts for Electric Picnic 2017 announced this morning"

    So you're saying we should only expect charade friendly bands like 'Elbow', 'Sleeper' and 'Gorillaz'?

    Guess that puts paid to my Jamiroquai prediction!;)

    I don't think so, I assume people are just going off the traditional time for announcements.

    Yeah it was me that said midday going off previous year's announcements. Wrong it seems!

    It used be easy to predict these things - midday would catch the lunchtime news and create a buzz. Same with late afternoon ahead of evening news.

    I guess that since the focus is on social media and not news, they can throw it out whenever.

    I would still think that pre-lunchtime would make sense in that regard as most people probably check their phones over lunch but sure, again - probably not!

    Next guess: 2:38pm. Massive Attack, Daft Punk and Prince.
