Tommy101 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Is there a reason why people are saying Saturday? big gap in their schedule suggests that they could do any at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because the festival is planning on putting every act anyone wants to see on at the same time so people are just preparing for the inevitable.

Gucci Piggy Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Yeah Sunday evening is gonna be a shiter (up until Justice/BBK) just to rub in the Fri/Sat clashterfuck even more. Although I do want to see Chic. Basically whilst Biffy Clyro are on it's all gonna be shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Shame that playing a headliner slot, unlikely to see them against the Jacksons party going on a few fields over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. Kind of glad they don't clash with The National/Avalanches though. Think my Sat headliner is sorted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Was kinda hoping they'd slot in on Other before Warpaint on Park, but I saw the girls late last year so Phoenix on Saturday night it is for me. Can't wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Incognito Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Sorry to the Phoenix fans but Run The Jewels should have been in this slot!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Let this be a cautionary tale of assigning an act to a slot bc you wanted them there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually kept predicting other acts there out of pessimism (Bonobo, Crystal Fighters, Goldfrapp) until they all seemed ruled out and I finally let myself believe it'd be RTJ!

fightoffyour Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Shame about the Alt-J clash but they're going to be great in this slot again (sort of) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Placid Casual Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Perfect, Saturday was looking a little thin on the ground for me so I'm well up for this. It'll be the first JP headliner I've seen. Only issue is that RTJ's slot now rules Mura Masa out for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Klein Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Phoenix closed JP on the Sunday 2013 and it was one of the best shows I've ever been too. This time they have 20 more minutes than in 2013... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Right lads and lassies, looking like this lot might be my unexpected Saturday night headliner. Can someone suggest a crash course playlist to get my prepared over the next three weeks? Never listened to them before, help brother out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Just slap on Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomViolence Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Echo the above as a starting point + they still play pretty much all of the album these days too. Very happy with this news! Foos would've been decent enough for me but this is the one. See you there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Wolfgang it is, I shall return.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 The above are all correct. Make sure you've got it cranked up for love like a sunset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I've just listened to it (got the new singles on now) and funnily enough it was when Love Like A Sunset Part 1 came on that I picked up my phone to check what the track was called. That definitely hooked me in, think I should be able to jump on this bandwagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Alphabetical has some pretty infectious grooves on it when you're done with Wolfgang. Dunno how much of it they play live now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Klein Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 They will probably play lots from Wolfgang, a couple from It's Never Been Like That + Too Young and Entertainment. With some from the new album of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingers_mark Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 New stage set up looks quality. Imagine the late night tent setting was a preferred choice over, say, daylight Other. http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/phoenix-shaky-knees-festival-2017-2072013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
