Festival Republic Stage

[lharris92]

end of the month to hazard a guess

[Banana Co]

when is it going to be announced?

[jazz565]

My guess is the end of May or early June. All announcements have been around a week before last years (I think). Last year it was announced 15th of June (again, I think).

[Banana Co]

I'll just put my list down again for others to see. (well, I'm also bored)

Cloud Control - Want and Prediction

Sleigh Bells - Want and Prediction

Grouplove - Want and Prediction

Yaaks - Prediction

Rizzle Kicks - Want but might be in BBC intro.

Cults - Want and Prediction

Dan Mangan - Want

Dry The River - Want

Gypsy & The Cat - Want and Prediction

King Charles - Want

Peter Wolf Crier - Want

Slow Club - Want and Prediction

Twisted Wheel - Prediction

To Kill A King - Prediction

Vices - Want and Prediction

If you haven't heard of any of these then check 'em out. I'm really loving Grouplove at the moment (the band, not the other thing)

lad those dates got rearranged to september so you still might have a chance!

think the leicester date is on the 30th sept now

http://www.facebook.com/inmeofficial/posts/194841580557551 - they announced it a while back

and the confirmed dates that they are taking place:

[saints15]

Pete & The Pirates will appear I reckon, new album is streamed on the NME website, with the article saying they are from Reading

[Matticus]

Rolo Tomassi please. Would be pretty mental in the FR Stage

[StoneyTheStag]

Any chance of The Rifles being on this stage?

I've said them a few times but; Young Rebel Set. I love their debut album and I'd be very surprised if they are not there. I think that they would fit on the Peter Doherty day.

[rexclark]

I'd love for The Young Knives to play again.

[lharris92]

InMe please... i know i keep saying that they should play but it would really restore some faith for me in FR & MB... + they will have an album out

[RDCL]

any rough ideas when the FR stage is released? surely it'll be sooner rather than later?

I think Tom Vek could be a good shout as a possible replacement for Pete... Although I hope not cos then I'd have to miss Muse. Pete going to jail uncomplicated things finally, so i kinda want a crap replacement

[mrtourette]

I'd like to nominate the Bluetones as a great replacement should he be replaced, what with the festival being on the eve of their farewell tour.

[jump]

Have FR made an announcement or not yet if they going to replace or keep him on the bill?

Yeah they'll probably take the easy/lazy option.

[RDCL]

any chance of either fenech soler or the soft pack making an appearance?

been hoping to see the soft pack for ages

[saints15]

Tom Vek being announced at Bestival must increase the chances surely

[Ashl]

Is there any indication that this may be announced this Tuesday? If not next 2 weeks or so seem reasonable?

I'm just surprised they haven't announced it quicker to try and shift a few more tickets!
