, Massive Attack possibly ( who I saw back in 08 ) . Pendulum although you might as well book Scooter.

Signed!

Daft Punk would be ultimate.

Across the board they must be the most consistantly respected act - let alone dance act. Other headliners have a massive hate/love following - most either take or leave DP and/or love them.

It would be the most original and coolest move to make DP full on headliners.

Hmm...that DP track that Paul linkied sounds an awful lot like Jean Michel Jarre has been let loose in the DP studio but its the end credits tune so has to be a film film epic I suppose. Derezzed is way better. Only a week or two to wait until the whole soundtrack is released yes??? I am really rather excited about that... :D

Outside Organisation said Daft Punk @ Wireless isn't true.

Even if they knew they were playing (which they probably don't have a clue about at the mo - that's the way things normally go) they'd still say they weren't playing prior to it being announced.

There's zero point asking any PR company to comment on any rumour, they'll either give it an outright denial regardless of whether what they say is the truth or not, or refuse to comment.

None of that is me saying they're lying - what they say might turn out to be the truth. But they can't be believed on any sensible basis, because they do put out false statements (and Outside more than most).

They said it on their twitter that DP was rumored to play, then later said the rumor was false.

Really hope it is true, though.

Ohhh, ta for that info - will dig a little deeper around that tomorrow, see what I can find out.

All the same, you can never trust the word of a PR - the very purpose of their job is telling porkies. After all, it takes no skill to put out the truth.

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
    • I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
