NME reporting that the Stone Roses will go into hiding for a bit after this summer's touring ends (22nd of this month), begin recording a new album 'in time for slots at Coachella and Glastonbury 2013'. If this is true about the new album I can't see them not headlining Glastonbury with a new album to plug, BBC exposure etc.

If the new album is good then why not? Haven't seen them since the reunion, so might pop along to the Pyramid if they were announced!

they are fucking huge amongst the 12-18 age bracket. Who happen to be complete c**ts at their gigs.

I went to see them at the local venue on their last tour and it was mainly kids from the local private schools who thought it is cool to mosh to every fucking song.

one of he worst gigs i have ever been too, not the band's fault but entirely down to the audience.

I'm 99% sure they'll do it next year. They're taking a break after this month to record a new album, and I don't think they'd get better exposure than to play Glastonbury. Also, reported in the NME that after the break they'll play slots at Coachella and Glastonbury.

I think the Roses are nailed on, but the other two might be more surprising!

On a side note, I agree with the other posters above that Of Monsters & Men sound pretty good! Seeing as the album only came out a few months ago they'll probably still be touring when 2013 comes around.

My thoughts at the moment (bear in mind I'm from Australia and don't know exactly how massive some of these bands are in the UK):

Pyramid:

Arctic Monkeys

Radiohead

The Rolling Stones

Other:

Jack White

Plan B

Mumford and Sons

It's obviously too soon since last time, but none the less, I'd take Blur back again in a heartbeat.

They were absolutley magnificent last night in Plymouth. All the classics obviously, but the new songs sounded brilliant live as well, and they played a few rare ones... notably Bugman which I don't believe they had played live in 13 years prior to this tour!

I think it will be Stone Roses, Radiohead and Lady Gaga though.

Is there any reason so many people keep putting Gaga up there? Surely she is horse-shit? And not in the same way as some people will say "U2 are horse-shit" or "Coldplay are horse-shit". I mean she is real horse-shit. You're basically taking one of the headline slots off the market for no particular reason....

I'd be willing to bet at the moment that The Stone Roses and Lady GaGa are two f them. Your 3rd between Radiohead and The Rolling Stones.

And honestly, I think with Radiohead, Eavis might have a situation where if he doesn't get The Stones, Thom and Co, had for eg, they been being lined up for the following year which you'd think would be nailed if not next year, calling it in a year early I doubt will be too hard.

Either way, I think if come Glasto headliner announcement date, we have no Radiohead, I'm 99% sure, not based on any info i have just logics that Radiohead will appear quick on the R page, probably even as a SR as it'll be probably signed early.

    • Based on previous times that rules quite a lot out of early summer festivals into the August runs.
    • No dramas man, I just like to follow others journeys as well. Get the inspiration, give out inspiration and the outdoors is the clear the head place to do it. I'm heading out for a easy trail run today I think, 10k- 10 mile we'll see how we go. I've got a half marathon in October I'm well unprepared for hahs
    • The Cheap Thrills at Mountford Hall, Liverpool.    They've been around for a while and have built up a large local following. Last night was their biggest yet, at a sold out 2,200 capacity venue.    It was a big old joyous, indie singalong from start to finish, the band clearly having the time of their lives. The debut album is out next month and they seem to be going down well on the festival circuit, maybe their time has finally come.   2 supports, I unfortunately missed Credits but the few songs they have on Spotify sound good, Americana vibes. The other was M60, reportedly Gary Neville's favourite band. If that's true, he's as clueless about music as he is football. To be fair, their sound was poor, maybe with a clearer sound they'd have been better but it was pretty dull.  
    • I can see them all merging along with the Tory’s . Restore curently couldn’t muster enough candidates to be a viable option . I lasted 4 mins and couldn’t watch any more . Lowe is just dull along with racist
