Forum gig review, in today's Observer:

what are the chances on them doing 2 gigs and playing on the pyramid or other in an afternoon slot as well as jp? like vampire weekend last year or the view in 07

I'd be very surprised if they also play a bigger stage. If you say "we're playing x stage", you announce the larger stage, not the smaller one.

So JP will be as big as it gets I suspect. I guess we can always hope for a reshuffle.

didn't come close to the national's last year though. that was a way to end a festival

[Tugger2k]

if they do clash with NY (the only artist (so far) able to make me miss them) then Latitude has just made my choice for me!!

heres hoping for a non-clash tho, really love em at the Big G

im over the moon, just over the moon!! perfect setting, perfect band

[Tugger2k]

wow that's good news. Just looked at the efests rumour site and it seems Nick Cave is playing too! Ace!

so neither editors nor doves are headlining it seems? any idea who headliners might be?

[russycarps]

lots of controversy over this - uncut announced the bad seeds, grace jones and the psb - but no-ones really sure if thats for the uncut arena (seems unlikely for cave & psb) but cant see how jones could be above either doves or editors - unless the uncut arena has been massivly enlarged

just been over on the latitude thread, saw that you were on there. Did you see someone moaning about the possibility of doves headlining, saying they were boring what a muppet.

in terms of popularity with the masses, i'd have to say (though I am loathe too) that editors are the biggest band of that bunch so surely that is a cock up? grace jones cant headling can she?? . Intresting line up though - made up about doves and nick cave especially.

I am gonna move heaven and earth to get tickets to this one

If it's the JP stage then so be it. I'll happily endure a few hours of 'support bands' to be down there for Doves

have you been before?

Come on Mr E sort it out

A Doves clash with NY is a disaster

Show some sense and put Doves on just b4 NY on the pyramid. They can handle that easy.

Thank you.

[Tugger2k]

Nope, never been. I was desperate to go last year but missed it due to a wedding. This year I have another wedding that weekend but I think I might just have to cry off sick.

I've heard nothing but good things about latitude. Is it true there is a "Pimms village"?

This has probably been said a trillion gazillion times, but why the heck are Doves on the John Peel stage???? Absolute bloody madness!!!! Should at LEAST be on the Other stage, if not Pyramid late afternoon .....

It's madness I tell thee, bloody madness!!!

Peace x

apparantly, they were offered a number of different spots but choose to headline the JP

can only think that were not offered something else that tickled their fancy
