tweemo freak Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Surprised that there's no thread 4 Loopallu 2010 yet. Let's get some band suggestions started. How about, Grousebeater Soundsystem (There bound to come back!) Mumford And Sons The Levellers Aberfeldy Blue Roses Add your ideas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deckchair1992 Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 deffo going this year my mates have been talking to Unicorn Kid and they are trying to get on the bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slamb Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 I got all carried away and bought a ticket after stumbling upon the website. They had a list of bands that I assumed was the line up.....but didn't read it properly. "Have played Loopallu". So now I have a Loopallu ticket and chances of Frightened Rabbit turning up are slim!

herindoors Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 I wonder if we'll get an announcement soon... just spotted this on the BBC website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/highla...ds/10136213.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanb Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 The Loopallu festival returns for its sixth outing this September, and we’re very pleased to start unveiling the line up. Loopallu has consistently managed to deliver acts and line ups well beyond its tiny 2500 capacity and this year will be no exception, indeed we think it’s by far and away the strongest line up yet. With headliners still to be announced, we’re pleased in the meantime to unveil a long overdue visit from Scottish indie heroes, Idlewild. Joining them and making their first ever festival appearance in the Highlands is Turin Brakes who are back on top form following the release of their 2010 critically acclaimed album ‘Outbursts’. Also confirmed are BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards ‘Best Live Act’ (2010) nominee The Bad Shepherds featuring comedian Adrian Edmondson, best known for playing Vyvyan in The Young Ones and also Eddie in Bottom. Local favourites and guaranteed to get the party started, The Vatersay Boys make a welcome and much requested return. Finally, bringing a touch of electronic/pop/folk are Silver Columns the new project of Johnny Lynch, better know as Pictish Trail and keyboard player in the Fence Collective. Ticket prices have been held at last years prices, with Weekend tickets at £55 and Weekend and Camping at £70. Weekend & Camping ticket holders wishing to bring campervans and caravans which will be charged £25 per vehicle. As, since the beginning, tickets for children 12 & under will be free (though need to be accompanied by an adult). See you all in September!!!

herindoors Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Fantastic!! We were going to be giving Bella a shot this year, but I think we may be heading North-West instead. Can't wait to hear more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryanb Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 We’re really chuffed to announce our second batch of acts. First up we can confirm one of the most eagerly anticipated new acts in the UK (having only played 2 London shows to date), Mt Desolation will be joining us on the Saturday in Big Top. Not only is this Alt-County group fronted by Tim Rice-Oxley and Jesse Quin (who are better known in their roles with Keane), their debut album due for release later this year also features performances from members of The Killers, Mumford & Sons, Noah And The Whale, The Long Winters and Pete Roe. Also added to the bill are the wonderful Aberfeldy who are set to release their third album ‘Somewhere to Jump From’ on August 23rd and rising traditional music stars Skerryvore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to make the trip up again this year! Can't wait to find out who's headlining! Any ideas when the headliner's are going to be announced?

herindoors Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 I'm really looking forward to hearing who the headliners are, the line up is already better than other festivals of the same (or larger) scale IMO. Mind you, if it is Travis I'll be running screaming in the opposite direction... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theampersanddevil Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Yeah that's what I thought to but then I noticed: "With headliners still to be announced, we’re pleased in the meantime to unveil a long overdue visit from Scottish indie heroes, IDLEWILD. Joining them and making their first ever festival appearance in the Highlands is TURIN BRAKES who are back on top form following the release of their 2010 critically acclaimed album ‘Outbursts’."

theampersanddevil Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Sorry, that reads like I went to the pub with the LS. Which would be much better than watching them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norainplease Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Yeah should have read it properly. On the bad side I hope Idlewild would headline so I could go to the pub like last year with the lightning seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
