2010 Headliners

Coldplay said recently they were taking a long break from touring when the current tour ends in Sept.

They started the La Vida tour last June and have been at it constantly since.

So zero chance for them I reckon

I could see Kasabian / Kings of Leon as a strong possibility. Would like one or other of them plus REM though.

Would there be an outside chance of White Stripes? They played Wireless a few years ago, so the whole corporate nature of the event does not seem likely to put them off.

I will be thinking long & hard before I commit to 2010 and won't early bird it again. The weekend was better than I expected though thanks to about4 or 5 very good sets and the fantastic weather (in Chelmsford).

I reckon we'll be looking at a 3 day festival for next year. I'd be happy with any of the following headlining:

Coldplay (Pure class live)

Arctic Monkeys (probably the only band along with Muse I've never seen live that I'm actually bothered about!)

Kasabian (Best live band out there!!)

Stone Roses (would love them to get back together but HIGHLY unlikely!!)

The Verve (I know it's never going to happen again as they have split but they were unrea last yrl!)

Muse (Missed them last year due to Ian Brown clashing - no regrets there but would love to see them!)

Foo Fighters (Fantastic on every occasion I've seen them)

    • Yep, honestly this seems like the most likely option right now.
    • Agree. Also there was a lot more crossing over between stages. I know they need to put the cure, the xx and Gorillaz on the main stages but if they could have put your Blood Orange, Big Thief, Baxter Dury on Cupra and Occident with Jade and Pinkpantheress on the main stages, it would have been a massive improvement. 
    • 100% THIS! I haven't quite been able to put my finger on it, but I think you've just nailed why I didn't enjoy this year as much as usual. In last years edition, the likes of Slowdive or Big Thief would have had evening slots at Cupra or Occident, instead of being shoved on to the main stages during the day. Apart from the very biggest acts (ie The Cure, the pop headliners), most performances at Mordor just lack that special "wow, I'm so lucky to be here" feeling that I remember from the Jesus Lizard and Anhoni sets that you've mentioned.  Sidenote: I wonder if there's a decent chunk of ticket holders that gravitate towards Mordor simply because it's the biggest stage, without really caring who's playing at that time, thus the increased (and incredibly noticeable) yapping. 
    • Some horrible talkers around me as well for that one. Plus the mobile beer taps pressing through almost all the way to the front, which really should be illegal.
