Dance Tent

The Dance tent is mostly pish now, hasn't been really good since 06.

Was said on another thread that Flux Pavilion has said he is playing, which tends to suggest they are taking the dubstep route again.

In that case maybe Nero is a good shout for headliners. If they bring a album out this year its going to be huge with Radio1 plugging every song by them

mm as much as id love nero to headline i think they'll play 2nd or 3rd from the top.

look at last year, it went subfocus->MM->Rusko, then roots manuva headlined :/.

so to me the dnb and dubstep acts will play high up but not headline.

Yea I saw skrillex at a car park rave in london in january. was his first UK gig and it was pretty mental.. think he'd be brilliant at reading. Modestep were also at the same event and were much better than I expected, getting quite alot of Radio 1 airplay so could be a possibility also.

[RDCL]

gonna bump this a little

any1 got any more info on the dance stage? im hearing it will be on the friday at reading, because for me a good dance stage might determine whether i actually go or not

[Nialldotcom]

i reckon a few dubstep artists will appear like doctor p and flux from circus records

God I hate Dubstep, but I do think the Dance Stage will be full of it this year.

[jump]

House Of Pain to headline?

Surprised R&L didn't try to get them and this is the only place I could see them play left.

[JohnsonWHU]

Can't see any surprises for me this year, think it will be full of dubstep acts I've already seen, I'm hoping they pull a surprise and have someone like aphex twin, I also think acts like jaguar skillz/Modestep/Nero will all get a set, purely because they are doing alot of similar things and can see reading just taking the easy option. Flux would be good.

[Bisque]

Camo & Krooked would be lovely!

[Calzum]

Innerpartysystem maybe? They're touring heavily through UK this spring and have a new album out this year too

[chickenfire]

Would love to see a tek-one playing in the tent at some stage, fantastic live

[Englishdragon]

I think the top 4 will be

Nero

The Qemists

Flux Pavilion

Beardyman

Just been re-reading old Dance stages from before I used to go, and f**k me I'd kill for something that good now.

2007 was superb, !!!, Digitalism, Datarock, Shy Child, Bizzle, Metronomy, Crystal Castles and The Teenagers. Clashes permitting I'd have barely moved all day.

Could Eric Prydz possibly bring his Epic show to Glastonbury or would that be a logistical nightmare?

Or perhaps just a regular DJ set? Playing Saturday at Cremafields. Not sure how well he would fit in with R+L crowd & if the Dance stage is big enough!

I would say zero chance.

Bizzle was so good in 09. I stood on my cousins shoulders then leapt like a magestic ginger eagle into the crowd and surfed out. Needless to say I felt like a king.

Can potentially see Bizzle headlining and then dubstep/dnb acts before.

Someone just told me Zane Lowe let slip that Nero was doing the dance tent, not sure if its true, just what I have been told
