The Big Rock Act

[Poleski]

Franz Ferdinand, TCV, Dead Weather, QOTSA & Eagles of death metal would all be great I reckon.

[tweemo freak]

We Were Promised Jetpacks, Them Crooked Vultures, MGMT, Band Of Skulls, Metric, Applicants, Funeral For A Freind(dont kill me!), and we can but pray that they book RAGE AGANST THE MACHINE!

We have had Enter Shikari, Biffy Clyro, Placebo, Twin Atlantic and Flood of Red already so the suggestions aren't unjustified

[Kowalski]

Quite a few suggestions are neither "big" or "rock acts".

I would say the chillis are unjustified, the chances of them ever playing must be tiny, same would go for Green Day.

Thank f**k.

[Kowalski]

I must have been going to a different festival over the last 5 years if people think RHCP, Green Day and QOTSA would [a] fit in to the ethos of the festival and are likely to be booked.

I never saw the chillis one. The fact they seem to have looked into booking Rage Against the Machine for 2010 makes me think they may be willing to dig deep if the act is right. Queens of the Stone Age would be the best bet for next year in my opinion.

And yes, the Foals are not rock.

[Eh Ah Ken]

there a band.... and they f**king bounce. if you wanna class exactly what rock is then most of the suggestions here are not any good.

[Poleski]

Yeah, more Math (early stuff) and Indie Pop (recent stuff). They should still play though .

[Kowalski]

f**k all chance of the Foals being "the big rock act".

Primal Scream headlining the clash would be f**king amazing. Most likely highlight of all the Rocknesses I'd go to.
