I love her voice, 'Essence' and 'Car Wheels' are two amazing albums but I get the feeling she can be hard work live. Saw her last year at the bowling alley attached to the O2, and she was excellent. Did have one slight moan in reference to it being a bit of a sh*t venue, but I'd say that was as much fair comment as moan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine Fleet Foxes will be there as well as FJM. Maybe LCD, Grandaddy, Vampire weekend will be. I dunno. Still holding out for Grizzly Bear and Dirty Projectors...

Also I cant see The xx happening, think they're certain for Glastonbury and would be more likely for Latitude than EOTR I'd think. 8 minutes ago, qrdk said: Maybe then a non-solo headliner releasing an album later in the year then?

shoebox Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 I think that if it were Wilco, they'd have been announced by now. Nothing to promote as such, already toured here late last year, so not trying to sell tickets for their own shows first. Which is why I don't think it's unreasonable to consider Nick Cave, and the reason he wasn't in yesterday's announcement was because of the timing of his own European show announcements. I mean, it's still unlikely, but I haven't given up hope just yet. Would love LCD, that would be awesome. The Woods hasn't had a proper "party" since Flaming Lips, IMO. Animal Collective blew it last year. Could have been great, ended up a tuneless mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avon Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 According to the Mary's Chain's official site they are playing EOTR on Sunday. That means they are either Garden Stage headliners or in the late night Big Top slot that the Fanclub took last year. They'd be perfect in either although I suspect they'll be given the latter. The volume they play at would make it sensible for them to be the very last act of the festival rather than have their sound spill over into other stages.

WM Hall Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 already got to solo(ish) male indie rock headliners , so i hope the next headliner gives a bit of diversity. (that said, i'm holding out for a Dirty Projectors headline set - in whatever form the band is now in) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swanmob Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 The lemon twigs and car seat headrest albums sound quite interesting from the couple of tunes I've listened to off both. Looking forward to delving in to a few of these bands at the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WM Hall Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 Ata Kak and Shuggie Otis are both in Europe at the time of the festival - would both make very interesting and more 'out there' additions!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljsawyer Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Already making some great new discoveries - this Omni album is a brilliant blast of post-punk.

Found them through Discover Weekly on Spotify a few weeks before the announcement but only listened extensively since EOTR announcement. So exciting. If you like them then you will LOVE Preoccupations (fka Viet Cong). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG306 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Btw, do EOTR never clash similar bands? i.e. I love Mac Demarco and Parquet Courts as much as Real Estate. Will they clash? not too worried about other clashes but below: omni alvvays gold panda band of horses father john misty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
