The Nal Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Yeah, thinking about it, maybe the Pixies spot from last year. 2nd to last on the Other. Edited February 27, 2015 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Granted, his profile's recieved a wee boost recently, but the album's not been a big seller and over the last 15 years or so he's released a slew of albums that have done commercial nosedives. I suppose he could sub the Other Stage, but prior to the Kanye stage invasion he wouldn't have been playing a massively high profile slot, I don't think. couldn't give a shit about any of that, musically he is good enough to headline the Other Stage.

The Placid Casual Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 He seems perfect for the pixies/smashing pumpkins slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Shanty Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 He subbed Electric Picnic last year and was one of the highlights of the weekend I thought. Would have no hesitation seeing him headline the Other Stage but his funky soulful swagger might just be better suited to a sunset slot. I think he'd be perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 i like the last album, but it's just a poorer retread of Sea Change really, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 i like the last album, but it's just a poorer retread of Sea Change really, isn't it? Was nice for 2 or 3 listens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russycarps Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) They're both really lush albums. I agree with this. Could he really headline the other stage? I saw him at V festival in 2006 and he was 2nd top the 2nd stage that night I think Edited February 27, 2015 by russycarps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 They're both really lush albums. True. Either way I'd love him there. Huge back catalogue and was great the time I saw saw him. Actually, think I've seen him twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 I agree with this. Could he really headline the other stage? I saw him at V festival in 2006 and he was 2nd top the 2nd stage that night I think Subbed Radiohead with his puppets on the main stage.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 I could actually see him headlining West Holts, it would be the perfect slot for him. I don't think he has the appeal anymore to headline the Other Stage or sub the Pyramid, so the options are sub the Other stage or headline West Holts... He headlined the Thursday night in the Big Top at Bestival & the West Holts stage is much bigger than that... I'd watch him whereever he plays though, set of the weekend at Bestival by far!

Badlands Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 I watched his iTunes fest set from last year and it was all killer. Nary a new album track in sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russycarps Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Subbed Radiohead with his puppets on the main stage. Ah fair enough. That was a great day. Actually, I enjoyed that festival (I was at the northern one). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
