So, we know that Pendulum are headlining the Clash Arena on Firday, in an annoying (4 me at least) clash with Fatboy Slim. So who do you think the other two Clash headlines are? Acts already announced, but their slot has not been? Or two acts still 2 B announced?

I think ones been announced already, and one hasn't. My guess is Ian Brown as the act thats already bee announced.
Are Simian mobile disco big enough to be the other one?

Ian Brown will headline the Saturday then I'd imagine a "dance" headliner for the Sunday but I can't think of who. At first I thought Aphex Twin but I think Jim King ruled him out.

In my eyes they are. Would suit the whole festival vibe (I've never been but from my recent forum use)

i think ian brown will be headlining the clash tent. if its not him it'll be doves.

i imagine the 3rd headliner will be a dance act, cause i can't see them having two indie headliners. i have no idea who it could be though.

They played 3rd from top in the Clash in 08. With the new album, i could see them headlining.

Yes please :P

Groove Armada could be a real possibility though, they've just released a new album.
I should probably check it out, Paper Romance was a belter of a track!

I saw them last week and they're new stuff is brilliant, it is totally different from what they're familiar with but they do it well. They top it off with an amazing new live show. Would go down a treat at Rockness. I'm pretty surprised they haven't been announced at either T or Rockness yet.

Ian Brown is probably the Saturday Clash Arena headline and 4 the third one, on Sunday i'm thinking maybe Massive Attack or, a cool shout, Simian Mobile Disco.

They don't have the headliner tag simply because they play so much all the time.

I dont think King ruled him out, he was just remaining tight-lipped, all he said was that he would be awesome to get for the festival. I didnt read anything in that, that suggested not a chance!
