i'm going to end this by saying you are wrong. Bloc Party do talk rubbish for the hell of it, if you don't think so or even know so, you haven't quite caught on. If you think it's just to troll interviewers, then you are wrong. Regardless if they do or don't play, they DO lie whatever.

Why would Russell Lissack outright say on twitter, to fans, on numerous occasions that they aren't playing if they were? If they were and he didn't want people to know, he'd say nothing!

ITS WHAT THEY DO. THEY ARE KNOWN FOR IT. IN FACT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY WOULD DO.

If you shouldn't care, then why do you?

End of the day if they sub The Roses, I'll get a V day ticket, simple as. There's no desperation. I don't have a weekend ticket for one band.

On the Bloc Party twitter thing, surely if they were asked if they were playing R&L they would just say no. If they said something gay like "you'll have to wait and find out" is a bigger hint than just saying no. Saying no, doesn't mean no.

I think the thing about Bloc Party which is being objected to is that it's impossible to make a blanket statement such as "they're not playing." It's alright to say "it appears they're not playing" etc. but to make a blanket statement completely ruling it out just can't be done.

With regards to Primal Scream, I'm a fan and everything, but the difference is, they are on their way down from popularity, where as Bloc Party are still at the height of their game, and arguably going to reach even further heights. PS are definitely not big enough to headline, and there would be a very bad reaction.

Hot Chip would be a great booking, think they would headline NME.

I assume the K.O.L suggestions are a joke, but I could see FR turning to that out of desperation.
