Announcement Tomorrow (Tuesday)


Guest Red Day

Recommended Posts

Heard from a pretty decent source that the two headliners will be announced tomorrow.

I've been told who they are and if it's true (for me) it's a very good couple of bands.

One of them has played before and one hasn't.

Not the Levellers or Charlatans but I'm well happy if it's the ones I've been told. :(

Will def be going now

Editors Want To Play Belladrum Festival Again

Feb 28 2008 Beverley Lyons And Laura Sutherland

EDITORS might sell out big venues across the country, but they say they would love to play the more intimate Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival, in Inverness, this summer.

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entertainment...86908-20333967/

They played a superb set at rockness and i think they would go down really well.

The second act I am presuming are more esthablished and have not played Belladrum before. So let me deduct... the headliner has on two occassions been the same as Guilfest so motor head or the happy mondays? (nope not gonna happen).... the headliner has been touring during easter allowing promotion to go out at the gigs for thier belladrum appearance: simply red, ultravox, the specials?

I am really not sure given that the levellers I thought were dead certs (especially as they asked to play). I do hope its not a band that has played up here in a bit (there must be a temptation to book the stranglers) please please please let it not be the truly terrible magic numbers

I also wonder how two non scottish headliners fits with the homecoming funding that belladrum recieved this year?

    • One problem could be that many of the hospitality packages are already sold out. Unless you’ve a media contact, media organisations normally get a hospitality allocation.
    • I agree on WA taking a year off in 2027. But if they got the call from R&L could see them having a similar August to what Fontaines are doing now. A few random shows + 2/3 other festivals. The festival/LN does seem to love them as well so there is a chance they take a punt.   I did see about Rodrigo potentially doing a stadium in Poland but no clue if that would be 2027 or 2028, I just can't see her at the Fest at all, seems too big in current climate.   If I were to guess the headliners next year I'd go with Fred Again/Foos/Capaldi/Olivia Dean/Biffy or Wolf Alice/Some Rapper, Tems?
    • Ulitimately the “Top 6” or top 2 on a day by day basis work as a collective   You could easily have Foo Fighters and someone else much weaker on a single day   As long as they add up to 3, whether they’re a 2 and 1 or both 1.5s it doesn’t really matter   The Florence- Chase and status day is basically a 1.5 and 1, hence it selling the weakest
