Yeah Yeah Yeahs possibility?

Couple of things:

1. They were 3rd because Audioslave dropped out; they swapped from 4th below The Streets on Saturday to 3rd below Kaisers on Friday.

2. A slot of that magnitude was very unexpected, and generated a decent amount of chagrin.

3. Though they are indeed big, are they any more so than Biffy Clyro or The Cribs who had headline slots in the JP this year? I would argue otherwise.

I've given up all hope of Eavis booking them for Glasto. To my sadness I don't think it'll ever happen. Don't forget Karen O has said she'll ditch the band after the 3 albums. Time is running out.

The new album, hmmm, it's good, but not as good as they're capabilities. The punk energy has gone, and has been replaced with a disco/electro sound. Like we need more guitar based bands turning electro. Radiohead are responsible!

See the YYYs live towards thge end of next month. Will be interesting to see how they translate this sound.

Well they're playing T in the Park and look stick ons for Reading/Leeds, so they're around. The new album is a bit 'disco' thou, and apparently they're going to play a fair bit of it, not my cup of t realy. But yeah, a superb live band. Great cover of the Ramones song.
