Is "rofl" something I should know?

If you're below the age of 21, then yes.

Oh cheers for that link!

Anyway, back to Latitude....

[helsbells30]

back to latitude...!

I could see Portishead, Massive Attack, Flaming Lips or James going down well at Latitude. Antony and the Johnsons headlined in the first year so doubt he'll be playing again.

Massive Attack and the flaming lips would be quality.

I was hoping for a bit of the national, but i think they're playing in the states at latitude time, bit disappointing, bon iver anyone?

[Corporal Clegg]

I was expecting Portishead to be doing the festival circuit last summer after their Third album came out but never happened.Maybe this year-I think they would make a good Saturday Headliner(or any day for that matter!)

[radiohea_d]

Portishead would be incredible.

And yeah, i think someone has posted before about the national playing some place else at the same time as Latitude, shame, they would be nice

Massive Attack are playing a couple at other festivals i think, so they could play

ask sungubala as he is the one with all the knowledge of the line up

[cam0611]

Yeah i'm hoping massive attack make some cheeky performance. As for sungubala, I think they could probably afford to give a few lineup nugget chunks, just to set my mind at rest.

[essosucks]

im telling you peeps -

SONIC YOUTH will be there!

[mercury]

really hope you're right. i'd still say they're the best band i've ever seen live, and i've seen a lot!

[RaymondM]

Tickets this year for the weekend are £150. Day tickets are £60.

I really do hope so. I haven't seen them before, but I love their music.

i've been doing a bit of delving into this 'Sungubala Guess Who' game.

got a few ideas to throw in the mix -

Derrick McKenzie - drummer of Jamiroquai (who have played Glasto), also played Live 8 (according to the Yamaha website, i assume with a different band).

Andrew Small - has sessioned for various people including Miss Dynamite (who was at Live , and toured with Massive Attack last year....

Ami Rothenberg - drummer of 1 Giant Leap, who played Live 8, have also played Glasto.

McKenzie and Small both teach drumming (Sungubala mentioned he had education work at V Festival).

Not quite sure where the Neil Young link comes in with any of these though...

[Jookie]

If it's Massive Attack then mega

tbh, I cannot wait until monday =D

[jackh131]

£150? Thats a bit steep, the line up had better be good

[sthorpe]

Morning

I have May's Uncut magazine in front of me.....

It says the headliners will be Nick Cave and the bad seeds, Grace Jones and the pet shop boys.

The Pet Shop Boys, oh dear...

any other acts named in there?

[huwypooey]

I can't imagine Grace Jones headlining... She headlined Secret Garden Party the other year and that had only like 5000 people. latitude has like 25000.

Not sure the pet shop boys is true either...

BUT nick cave would be great!

[huwypooey]

Pretty old group headliners too, wouldnt really say there was a "mainstream" act for the friday slot there...

[darkodan]

unless those three are the Uncut headliners....but then that tent will surely need to be bigger this year.

[sthorpe]

...all it says it that they are the headliners of the main (obelisk arena) stage. No other musical acts are named, and the only other names mentioned are Luke Haines, Robin Ince, Stuart Maconie, Simon Armotage, the Bush, Royal Court and the Royal Shakespeare company.

We will see on monday...
