    Years ago when I pretended to be a dj, I remember playing this tune when it kicked off in a club. It had taken me ages to get a copy and cost a fortune (still looking at £80 for it now). It all kicked off lights came on and I was adked to turn the music off. Bollocks to that, no chance I was stopping this till the end. Fair to say I never got asked to dj there again.

     

    Wow thank you for this hadn’t heard it before - breathtaking stuff!

    Fair point, although I think APE is a hard one to judge really as the subs aren't really traditional subs - thats the North stage headliner really. They've had the likes of Sampha, John Grant and Metronomy in that same position so not sure its as clear cut as that. 

    Yeah i agree it's hard to judge. And GM is hard to gauge as well - last year's line up was kind of strange in that respect (although i think we can assume a headliner pulled out). 

    John Grant was only in that position due to First Aid Kit pulling out i think though. 

    I could see it going either way to be honest but my instinct would be headliner.

    Do you think they'd headline? I think their size is really hard to judge as they haven't done a proper series of gigs over here for ages but I'm wondering if they could pull off a similar deal as Eels where they play third (or properly more accurately sub)? 

    Yeah i'd say headliner for the same reasons as @SweepingTheNation. Looking at that year's APE line up, they had Beck in the same position and Father John Misty one step lower so going off that I would have thought YYYs would be headliner size.

    So it looks like Yeah Yeah Yeahs are indeed touring next year (playing Shaky Knees in the US in May) which is interesting giving GM started following them on twitter after this year’s festival. Obviously not a confirmation that they’re playing but more that they’re on GM’s radar.

    What would you think about YYYs headlining?
