yeah the whole album was a soundtrack to one of his films. always thought his main priority these days was the 'Plan B' film studio which has produced 12 Years A Slave and stuff, but apparently that's nothing to do with him whatsoever and he's actually been doing community work for the last few years. fair play.

That's fair enough. Great film that too, one of a kind.

I'm excited for Plan B to come back, She Said is a massive tune 

they definitely claimed they were on twitter, when they were announced.. maybe they don't know what headlining means. Dunno.

That album is great to be fair

It most definitely is in Hull - can't wait.  

If you know of anyone who is travelling there and needs accommodation, please let me know as I have a double hotel room (close to the festival) that I paid for that I no longer require and I can't cancel it.

It is literally like 2014 all over again.

Anyone got any info regarding set times for this? 

Have they been released in advance in previous years or do you just need to find out on the day?

There've been leaks in previous years, but yeah set times are only ever officially announced in lanyards given out on each day. Probably because if people realised how short each set was they'd not bother turning up

Why do Kasabian have such a low slot for this? It's a bit strange

Bands agree to play in exchange for being playlisted on Radio 1, 99% of them don't care when are where they play, it's a tale as old as time
