That whole scenario goes away if Radiohead aren't playing.

LCD into Muse would be a pretty good fit as well. only reason i'm pushing them as a possible Pyramid sub so much is that it leaves a Other spot open for Sigur Ros, even though i know they'll end up at Wilderness. just gotta keep on hoping!

[ghostdancer1]

and then what about The National?

Are they not more likely to be Pyramid subs?

i don't know, i'd have thought they're too niche for that slot?

That's the same reason I'm not sure about them headlining the Other. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a big fan but I’m probably only one of two within our group that’s even listened to them. Anecdotally that makes it tough to place them

LCD Soundsystem I reckon will sub the pyramid 

The info we got was them headlining Other though and I see no reason to discard that.

[Brave Sir Robin]

I'm still dreaming of LCD subbing the Roses.

Yeah, one person saying they were doing London + Glasto (whilst all the reform/Coachella rumours were going on) 

Then someone said they'd heard they were headlining Other with New Order

Thanks, they are a certainty for me, it all makes perfect sense

So I went and ordered their documentary "SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS" which arrived from Amazon today.

Question for those who own the DVD. Do you recommend watching the disc 1 with the documentary on first, or discs 2 and 3 first, starting with the farewall concert in it's entirity?

Rather excited to watch this, I've never really followed their music outside "New York I Love You," but I always love music documentaries like this as a way to introduce me to the band.

I'd go for the documentary first to give you a better idea of the band as a whole, then delve into the concert after.

[blue6field]

Documentary first

[chazwwe]

Documentary first. It's a long concert, aprouching 3 hours. So not knowing too much about them its a lot to go into straight away. The doc shows bits and pieces of the live show in short bits with a few different camera cuts.

I forgot how tingly the long goodbye makes ya.

Take no notice of anything the BBC say and you'll go further in life

You'll have to ask them where they got the info of a 'British exclusive'.

All I can tell you is that the publicity materials we received from the festival stated very clearly that both headliners are a 'London exclusive'.

Because it's likely both them and us received the same publicity materials I can only guess that they wrote it up wrongly, but I may be wrong.

[benus80]

Thanks for helping to clear it up I do not think you are wrong as you do work hard to get the right information and I trusted you more than the BBC.   

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

The marketing campaign for the Lovebox announcement was for two London exclusives, so no need to worry

THE TIME HAS COME

THE TIME HAS COME TODAY

[Zoo Music Girl]

Knew I shouldn't have come back here. You guys have now got me thinking:

1. Radiohead are playing

2. LCD Soundsystem are playing

3. I am going to get a ticket
