Good to see a lot of Love for them.

Just can't stop listening to the new album, and when I do I invariably listen to the 1st album instead.

Got the Vaccines, Strokes and a few others to go through but my GOD White Lies have made a good album.

If they are playing Sat on the Other stage, I think that will suit me. I will be there, and down the front. See you all there.

I saw both White Lies and Glasvegas (along with Florence (who I liked a lot) and Friendly Fires (who were dreadful)) at the same NME tour gig and thought they were both fantastic.  I love the three albums the two bands have produced between them.  

Deary me, Russycarps.  I thought we had so much in common with our unhealthy love of all things Nick Cave, including adoring the wonderful Grinderman (still no news on them  playing ).  In my head White Lies and Glasvegas have at least an influence link to Nick.

I saw that tour !

I love White Lies , but cannot stand Glas Vegas !

And I thought FF were excellent !

Oh well, does it cheer you up to know that I adopted an orangutan about 4 years ago?!!

First album went to number 1
2nd Album went to Number 2 - I think Adele could not be shifted

Not bad going !

Fair play, I had no idea they were that popular. Definitely big enough for that slot then. Maybe I need to give their second album more of a chance from what's been written here. I'd prefer it if Interpol played though to be honest

YES!

Good to see White Lies given a good slot. Bit of a shame that they're up against Elbow (suspect I'm not the only person who'd like to see both)

New album is certainly a grower. I'm sure they'll leave the Other Stage a happier place as they did in 2009.

Yeah thanks for the clash of Janelle Monae and White Lies. I would have liked to see Elbow too, but the WL/Janelle clash is insane for me.

Definitely a bad clash for me. I will have to go for Elbow but for anyone looking to fill that slot, so to speak, White Lies will not disappoint.
