The Sherlocks have jokingly responded after appearing to Photoshop themselves higher up the line-up on the bill for Y Not Festival 2018.
Last night, the rising guitar band were announced for the Y Not 2018 in Derbyshire alongside the like of The Libertines, Jamiroqai, Catfish & The Bottlemen, Manic Street Preachers and Kaiser Chiefs.
However, when they took to Twitter to share the line-up, they posted a version of the poster that swapped their billing with that of The Amazons:
The Sherlocks Photoshop the Y Not line-up
This inspired some ribbing and parodies online from fans and bands alike:

Now, the band have regained control of the conversation by posting a parody poster that shows them headlining a classic Glastonbury line-up from 2003:
