John Peel Stage

[TrevK]

I'd take any of these on any stage:

The Hold Steady

The National

Gaslight Anthem

Temper Trap

King Blues

The Cure

Siouxsie

The Pogues

[rexclark]

1990s please.

[Bort]

I don't want any amazing Peel headliners unless said act is playing at the same time as a terrible Pyramid headliner...the whole Jarvis vs Bruce thing was brutal this year.

Would love to see in the Peel tent:

Asobi Seksu (long overdue...be sure to check them out opening for White Lies later this year and then leave early so you don't have to see White Lies)

Emmy the Great (incredible this year, needs to do multiple sets every year)

St. Vincent

Final Fantasy

Kiiiiiii

Deerhunter

Mono

Boris

Glass Candy

Amanda Palmer

M83

Islands

Los Campesinos

Girls

Menomena

Ramona Falls

[Buddhafish]

Fugazi

Nomeansno

The Fall

[MEGABOWL]

Next year I'd like to see bands John Peel might actually have liked or did like (and by like I mean artist he signed or who played sessions would be a good start) rather than much of the fake indie that seems go on.

[daley]

A wee bit Idlewild in John Peel would be amazing! However, They are proberly to big!

[ghandi]

would love to see the XX followed by the Cocteau twins.

[coma girl]

1990s please.

[Memory Man]

seriously right its the XX not the XXX

oh and theyre proper average although will almost certainly play.

hype.... dont belive it.

almost all the bands mentioned for headliners are far too big for JP.

doubt there will be any change to the "up and coming" indie pop shite bands on major labels on the line up which is a shame as im certain these are not be bands mr peel would have been supporting!

jarvis was a good booking last year tho.

+1 on los camp! would be ideal.

I think the XX are good, i was into Tricky though and they have the same vibe.

Would also love to see The Rifles, but maybe better at the Queens head headlining late.

[ghandi]

Apologies for bumping my own topic , and for the over use of "x" s , freudulant slip you might say.

Again i disagree with Mr Memory man on the XX, i think they are very good up and coming young band with a good yet not unique sound. Their debut album is very good and as with new bands with good solo albums it remains to be seen after the hype if they can follow up their success..see Florence and the Machine.. White lies etc. But i believe they can. It's just after being hyped up by the Beeb.... as was the dreadful ( only in my humble opinion ) , Speech Labelle ( how did she ever win the Mercury Prize, its was behond me ), can they live up to it. Time will tell. But if they do play on the JP next year i will be there, as long as it doesn't clash with a major headliner like Radiohead , Muse et al.

[Wanderlei]

I'd quite like to see Placebo headline the JPS.

[Niblet]

Butthole Surfers

Ween

Jack White doing some solo stuff?

[BlackHole2006]

Saw the Butties in Nottingham last year, was bloody amazing, I hadn't been caught up in a riotous mosh like that for about 15 years!

I'd like to see PWEI reform once again, check this out of them doing 'Their Law' in 2005:-

[Niblet]

The Prodigy basically completley nicked that riff for Take Me To The Hospital then?

[Bort]

Interesting idea, given The Fall are banned, that would mean....

Cat Power

Pavement

Buzzcocks

The Undertones (though they're without Sharkey)

Half Man Half Biscuit

Six by Seven

The Wedding Present

I did think of PJ Harvey and White Stripes but they're too big for the JP

[rexclark]

Shed Seven would be quite good.

[4AssedMonkey]

I'd be well happy with any of

P J Harvey

Shed Seven

Weezer

Paul Weller

Portishead

Band of Horses

Therapy?

Whilst some of the acts mentioned here may well be too big to play the JP, don't some largers acts actually request it? I know Doves did this year because they were supposed to be playing a larger venue initially.
