The Strokes or Klaxons or Horrors?

Small possibility of The Strokes. It appears Julian has signed up, but The Strokes are active around the time, they've said they're playing one other festival as well as the two they're doing at the moment, and would make sense as Julian is there.

I really doubt Klaxons will play. As you said they played last year, and their bigger slot at R&L makes it look unlikely.

Haven't heard anything about Horrors, they've not been announced for anything UK wise this year yet which is surprising as they're doing european things. I'd say maybe.

Strokes: Small chance

Klaxons: Unlikely

Horrors: Possible.

I wouldn't go see Klaxons play if they were in my back garden. Infact I'd shut the curtains!!

Strokes are unlikely now bearing in mind Casablancas playing solo. Shame, I'd still go see him though, I really enjoyed his album and I'm sure he played a Strokes track or 2 on his tour.

Horrors played the Park last year, are touring and playing fests so may do.

Klaxons hugely unlikely I am afraid :P

Taylor-Davies told NME.COM that the band plan to release their second album in the latter half of 2010 and use the festival to announce their return.

"I think in England it’s just going to be Reading and Leeds in terms of festivals this summer," he said. "Then we’ll tour all the way through to the next festivals. I think we’ll do a few spot shows around the summer, but this will be our big comeback."

He added: "One of the fundamental things about this new record is how much of a live record it is: it was written and recorded with the four of us in a room facing each, in a room that was about three metres squared."

    • I got in for £11.25 in the end, which was absolutely ridiculously good value, and made the queues and overselling of the venue much more tolerable! Sniping in on other people’s unwanted tickets on the day of an event might become my new hobby I think 🥳
    • Ann and Nancy Wilson are planning a final world tour for HEART starting next year. They were never at Glastonbury. They should do it. 
    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
