Do you think Paulo is a headliner?

[Elbear]

This is actually the worst news I have had all week.

If true, Rockness could go from the best lineup to the worst in a year.

Edit: No word on Primal Scream?

Biffy was mentioned at the festival awards last night...

I seen both at T.

Brings me back to the days of panini football stickers, opening a pack of 6 and theyre all doubles. Arrrgh.

Surely to god Paolo wont be given a headline slot although Razorlight did get one in 2008. Still, hasn't Rock Ness grown to a point where they can afford to stick acts like these atleast 1 or 2 spots down the bill.

Interesting to see that he is "TBC" though as i wasnt thinking they'd be putting out smaller acts with the headliners so early in the announcements. Still could be the same idea as 2009 when the announced late in 2008 with Prodigy-Biffy and Basement Jaxx-Dizzee Rascal.

Also Im assuming Kasabian will be on the Friday to give them enough time to recover for Isle of Wight even though Prodders did knock out a hat trick of festivals for us in 2009.

im hoping we have get Paolo in a subheadline spot like they did with Biffy and Dizzee in 2009

NUTINI HEADLINING!

Nae chance, but i will say this veeeery quietly.................quite happy about Kasabian playing

[DoubleDex]

I REALLY REALLY hope Kasabian headline. There. I said it. Loud and proud.

Bloody great band who will totally smash Rockness IMO.

Folk don't like them there'll be plenty other great stuff going on I'm sure.

Now shoot me down in flames ha ha.

I personally like Kasabian. I'm just worried the festival becomes too much like T, especially having one headline who headlined the other so soon. I seem to remember them saying that they don't want RockNess to become another T in the Park but if they start having the same headliners so soon after the other it will no doubt happen. Also I think a lot of your typical T goer who can't get tickets for T next year will just go to RN due to similar lineups etc. I can see things from an organisers perspective wanting to sell out though.

I would rather RockNess kept it's uniqueness as in my opinion it ticks every box for a fest.

[pancake70]

Nutini is tbc that bassically means he is going to be there does it not?

Kasabian are 100% playing and Rockness and Isle Of Wight are their only gigs.

[rachbon]

yuck.

i REALLY don't want kasabian to headline. rockness has always been different to T, by not following the current trends with acts and having more eclectic acts headlining like flaming lips and super furry animals. they've always managed to get the best dance acts around and the type of acts playing have set the tone for the whole festival. jim has always made a point of saying that rockness is not like T, so if kasabian headline, f**k knows what he's thinking.. we don't need two T in the park's in scotland, it was great when rockness came along to have another big festival in scotland as an alternative to T. if it turns into a mini T next year with shite bands and a crowd full of arseholes, it might have to be my last year. i love rockness and don't want to see it going to shit
