So, the consensus seems to be that there will be an announcement/press conference at The 'ackney Empire on 6th. There are two unknowns. The first is whether or not there will be some sort of stunt (blimp-style). Rumours of Mick sky diving in are wholly unfounded. The second is whether or not it will be streamed on any social media so that we can all, subject to timezone, watch it
