Park, spesh guests on friday...

[random_man]

Has anyone thought about the Specials? Neville Staples is on at the Arcadia stage!

[Jackmypie]

Bon Iver's doing a few promo shows for the album next week, mainly TV appearances.

If only...

[sifi]

Migh stroll up there on Saturday. I quite fancy the Coral on Friday at the John Peel tent.

Although this will probably change depending on where I am, and what state of mind I'm in come Saturday PM.

This pulp special guests thing is massively pissing me off, I love pulp, and like the special guests thing at the park, I often go up there just for the fun randomness of it. Even didn't mind when the klaxons turned up one year,

This doesn't feel like fun and randomness anymore, it's stressing me out

@keef

yeah I don't have to read the threads but at some point I will have to decide wether I'm going to go and see whoever at the park or not.

I'll probably go on Friday anyway because it a fairly good place to just go and chill out

It's not Artic Monkeys, if what I hear is true....

[Istari]

All this talk of bands being too big for the Park is complete rubbish. I'm pretty certain the Polyphonic Spree could fit on that stage. And they're a BIG band

[mike46]

I know Kasabian were mentioned moons ago, can anyone remember why they were excluded from the potential list? are they touring that weekend?

[1waveydavey]

which is...?

[Porcelina]

..you're as clueless as the rest of us!

[thelizardking]

my info says its ween. pulp better not get in my way of watching tame impala

[thelizardking]

wait wait, what about Lou Reed, he's in the areas?

[fullfathom5]

That it's not The Artics... I'd love to share, honestly, but...

[eFestivals]

I know Kasabian were mentioned moons ago, can anyone remember why they were excluded from the potential list? are they touring that weekend?

they're playing in Madrid on the Saturday. Probably rules them out, but not impossible I suppose.

[1waveydavey]

I Posted because I know it's not The Artic Monkeys.... I have been told it is somebody else.

No, I'm not saying who it is but if what I hear is true you have to rule out Artic Monkeys.

[1waveydavey]

*the reason I know it's not them is because I believe I know who it is - this would give the game away as to who actually is playing.

[Sketchead]

Yet another person who's in the know and then refuses to name his source.

P.S the way you're wording things suggests that it's not ARCTIC MONKEYS. Shadow Puppets again?

I like all the speculation, but honestly don't forget that if it's someone big that we all WANT it to be then if someone gives the game away it may not happen....

[AdamSheff]

Monkeys aren't playing!!! Just spoke to a friend of the band and his words are "Not happening". When i asked why, he responded, "Never was going to happen, just all rumours".

[1waveydavey]

Not Artic Monkeys or Last Shadow Puppets.

Understand completely why you'd question or be fed up, I'd feel the same. But, as efcfanwirral (I'm red by the way..) rightly points out, if the game is given away it would jeopardize the performance actually happening.

Not Artics so any monkeys fans need not make the trek up to the park.

Why not just go to the park stage anyway, you'll find out for yourselves then and I would imagine the majority would be happy that they did.

[Sketchead]

OMG IT'S THE STROKES

[dancingdaisy09]

OMG It's Take That!

Kings of Leon?

[TwistedReligion]

That's what I said.

Not sure what you're getting at here. Why say they're too big and then infer they're smaller than someone who was on (and brilliant!) last year?
