    On the back of lots of publicity, a new album and a very solid undercard they'll make it.

    See I wanna book tickets but only really Tame Impala, Rolling Blackouts CF & Possibly Glass Animals appeal at the moment. The Strokes sold out last year I don't see this line up comparing to that in my opinion

    I don't know why but whenever I see Manic Street Preachers or Stereophonics on a festival line up it just cheapens it for me. Neither band have been relevant for the past 10 years and from what I've seen at fests or heard from friends they just don't sell anymore. No one is going to see a co-head of those two for £60/70 and go what a must see line up I must buy tickets. 


    It'd be embarrassing to have bands of that calibre headlining alongside Tame Impala (Recent Coachella headliner), Kraftwerk (One of the most respected electronic acts and even 40 years after their heyday a huge draw and respectable booking) and Massive Attack (a hugely influential band who helped shape the music of the past 30 years). All Points East regardless of whether they always hit have tried to encourage new headliners or aim to get the best in the business. Not has beens who for me scream dying festival.

    I think APE have messed up in leaving everything so late this year. I don't see what ace card they have up their sleeve unless there are some huge reunions just round the corner but I really hope they do not drop to Stereophonics/Kooks/Manic Street Preachers. 

    Stereophonics have sold out their arena tour & have a number 1 album last year so still relevant but I do understand your point on letting a new headliner breakthrough

    I'd be surprised if any of it sold out tbh...

    Ticketmaster offer for kraftwerk day: you can buy a ticket and get a free ticket for the design museum electronic music exhibition from May

    Yeah I see just cause I'm waiting for the full headliners before booking tickets, at the moment Tame Impala looks good just wondered if they would sell out that's all

    Could be:

     

     

    Friday 26th: The 1975

    Saturday 27th: Community

    Sunday 28th: KOL

    For me I think this is too congested, Imagine the security needed for these three events,  public services strained & transport, not too mention the locals. I think probably just Kings of Leon on the 28th, Community going the week after

    I would've agreed with KoL but a thing came out before Christmas that they're playing Finsbury Park on Glastonbury weekend, so unless there's a big scene change happening behind the scenes, it probably won't be them.

    That is interesting, That would probably rule them out if true. Just sensing they need a big rock act to play to try and sell tickets. If not Kings of Leon maybe Arcade Fire or Royal Blood. They could even go with someone like Haim or Wolf Alice but I could see them struggling to sell tickets.
