Got be a call for next year to sub Pyramid or headliner other stage? What with a new album n all. I'd be up for it =]

[Boris]

Is it any good?

[Vieuphoria]

Not out yet. Due out this year or early next i think. Would assume it'll be semi big though.

[Vieuphoria]

What with a few dates in early July.... Chances? Just been listening and i'd be very happy if they played. Headlining Other, or somewhere on Pyramid... anywhere?

[blackcockerel]

Don't think they'd headline the Other, think they played quite early on the Pyramid in 99

[OneLittleFish]

I think they'd probably take the Status Quo slot nowadays tbh.

[Vieuphoria]

Really? I still think they've got some pulling power surely? Like 4th or 5th surely?

[neil999]

def mid pyramid, they are doing loads of festivals

They were awful at Rockness last year, I'll be avoiding them this summer

They're playing Kendal Calling and I was quite looking forward to them.

im the same as you, looking forward to seeing her at kendal, they seem to be headlining quite a few small festivals so im assuming theyre not that bad live

I caught them a few years back at Lovebox and to be perfectly honest......disappointing.

Probably give them another go, but I was really gutted afterwards. Band were all over the shop and Debbie looked completely wrecked.

Fingers crossed they'd be much improved from that performance

Sounds exactly like when the played Glasto in 99. They were either 2nd or 3rd on then and had just had a no. 1 with Maria so I doubt they'd be any higher this year if they appeared.

[Paul ™]

Yup poor vocals, dis-jointed performance, very little interaction, just going through the motions and looked like a band that should have stopped playing 10 years ago.

Will be avoiding their wasted slot at Camp Bestival this summer.

I have clearly massivley overestimated their size and influence. I can understand them being not entirely great live though.... They are all 60+ trying to pop punk songs they wrote 30/40 years ago.

Iggy still does it good.

[Vieuphoria]

Iggy is very very different. Plus isn't Debbie going a bit deaf now?

[JID]

I would Like to see them but I've seen them a few times on the box and they did sound bad tbh. Was hoping it was the atmosphere not coming across but reading this they probs are disappointing live

Me too!  I'm hoping there will be a bit more than Beyonce's derriere, Cold Plays drivel and Bono will no doubt produce a tsunami of Love!
