JP stage headliners?

[PCP]

I think Editors may headline Other Stage !

[Memory Man]

Hot chip... done it before

however more likely for the other stage i guess.

Editors is a reasonable shout, they fit the bill quite well. Having said that i wouldnt watch them.

Its so hard to guess accurately because the same headliner in the JP could easily also be positioned as a park headliner or a middle to 3/4th headline other stage act.

[Josepipe]

I've never been sure about this one - is it a step up, down or sideways to go from the sunset slot on the Pyramid to headlining the Other stage? Didn't Editors play under Jay-Z in 2008? If they're about I could definately see them headlining the Other stage.

[PCP]

Winehouse played under Jay-Z, maybe you've been trying to forget it even happened - I know I have!

The JP was great in 08 and 09, didnt catch any headliners down there last year though. Editors could be in with a shout, but Biffy Clyro surely too big now?!

[NeilVJ]

Maybe bands would prefer to headline the JP Tent than player further down the bill on the Other / Pyramid. I read somewhere that was the case for the Doves last year.

[PCP]

Just looked on Wikipedia, Editors were below Fratellis on the friday. I'll get me coat...

[Tugger2k]

I think Doves were given the choice of Other or JP, and chose the JP because they'd never headlined it before? I hear it was pretty rammed in there though and they were probably a bit too big for that tent. Iwas watching the mighty Ray Davies at the time anyway!

[BangOnTheEar]

I believe you are mistaken sir, twas the Futureheads on before them. However, an excellent time was indeed had...

[jsw]

I see Pavement being mentioned lots, which is great. But they are playing in America on the Friday, which must make them highly unlikely you would think.

[ivan]

Good goddamn! That's a top line-up.

Really surprised to see BSP so low, mind.

[budvar]

JP headliners are always hard to call. Who'd have guessed Jarvis and Echo this time last year.

Possible names:

Gaslight Anthem (would have to be Sunday because of their other dates)

The Futureheads

Editors (perhaps a little big)

Florence and The Machine

White Lies (not sure if they'll play again after two gigs last year)

MGMT (been said a lot and seems a decent fit

[norainplease]

Has to be my fav stage,there's always a really good atmosphere.

Anyway i'm hoping for.

Biffy

Arcadefire

Radiohead or Thom York,but this will never happen.

[olly!olly!olly!]

The Temper Trap

Paul Weller

The Courtenners

[mario man]

If we're going in a similar direction to last year:

Manics

Idlewild

Super Furries

will do me very nicely thangyouverymuch

[jackarmy]

Ideally:

Pendulum

Manic Street Preachers

Noel Gallagher

[Buglet]

Thee Silver Mt Zion Memorial Orchestra

Mogwai

Spiritualized.

Please.

I may never leave.

[NeilVJ]

Ideally:

Pendulum

Manic Street Preachers

Noel Gallagher

[jackarmy]

Think all 3 of them would be too big to headline the JP Tent.

[rexclark]

I'm saying:

Super Furry Animals

The Charlatans

La Roux

[vinylvictim]

only on one side

there was a wierd thing going on up there last year as almost everybody tried to get into the tent on the left hand side of the tent.

if you walked a further 70 yards you could get in on the other side

still pretty rammed by the end tho!

[denwyn]

Editors

Arcade Fire

Gossip

Flaming Lips

Gaslight Anthem

Any of the above, if not JP then Other Stage

[Spider43]

As a special 40th Anniversary treat maybe they could have reforms some of the best of the JP Tent. Hope of the States or Morning Runner anyone?

[Joshuwarr]

Interpol anyone?
