2013 Headliners

[Vanderlyle]

Yes huge fan. I've a few of her LPs too. Court and Spark, For the Roses, Hissing of the Summer Lawns, Hejira. Ladies of the Canyon though is utterly sublime, emotional, devastating, beautiful, glorious and otherworldly stuff. I'm not really mad on anything after (and including) Don Juans Reckless Daughter. She went off on the jazz/rock buzz from that point on.

SeventhOne - I love some of the dirty 90s stuff. Just not the 80s. Its production. I hate 80s production. No growl in it at all. And the drums are appalling on most of his 80s stuff. Sounds like it was made on a Casio keyboard. Same for the bass.

Also, Van Halen are 70s rock!!

Atoms for Peace wouldn't headline surely?

I highly doubt Eavis still puts up personal money for Glastonbury still. I assume Glastonbury Festivals Limited is a social enterprise, with tax breaks etc, which would mean all loans are against a company rather than a person.

but it's a company that essentially doesn't have an assets - it's an exceedingly bad risk loan on that basis.

The company that runs efestivals has assets of (just) above £5k, but I was required to give a 'personal guarantee' (making me, and not the company, ultimately liable) in order for my bank to give me a £5k overdraft facility.

I doubt that any bank nowadays is giving out £15M on a totally unsecured basis.

I almost threw my laptop out the window 20 seconds into AMOK. It's probably something to do with me despising Thom Yorke

[LondonTom]

would he be on in the kidzfield?

Listened to For the Roses last night. Pretty good.

[Ed209]

Listened to the album twice today. Was dull the first time and depressingly dull the 2nd time. Its an embarrassment for all involved.

Streaming here.

Not a chance but I wouldnt be surprised if they played a afternoon slot or subbed on the Other Stage

[Morse Code]

Good stuff. Try Ladies of The Canyon and Blue. I prefer both of them.

I don't see them mentioned on here at all but would Glastonbury ever have Red Hot Chilli Peppers? I know they've announced a couple of non uk festivals but wouldn't know if it'd ever happen?

Glastonbury have booked them in the past (1995 maybe?) but I can't see them ever playing a UK festival again tbh, unless they take less than headline.

[Guest]

Yup, his just going stand there threatening to kill them all as they try to touch his speakers.

See Mumford and Sons are headlining Bonaroo 2013 in June in a great line-up. Finally can we accept that they are seen as headline material for the big festivals. I know nothing of their music but it seems they are indeed a band of the moment!

my daughter is studying Music at the moment, and IDM was brought up. I asked her what it was. Lemon Jelly came up...

Atoms For Peace give IDM a bad name (before they've started).

It sounds like it might have been great fun creating it... presuming everyone's off their heads.

[Guest]

Lemon Jelly's stuff is fegging awesome. The civilized world seems to shun it though, fucking squares

[JamesT977]

Is Dizzie Rascal like an English favourite or something? Because first time i heard of him was when Bonkers came out that was also the last time until he was at the Olympics i remember sitting thinking why are they giving him all this time he had one song out. Now he's been announced for T in the Park and by the looks of things he doesn't look as though he is going to be very high up. This is the first time i've mentioned anything about him and i've been very confused by the way everyone has been treating him like a headliner i just don't get it.

Dizzee had some excellent stuff before 'Bonkers'. Bonkers just basically summed up where he's been going wrong musically for the past 4/5 years. It's done his wallet some good though.

Ive had a trawl back through this thread but cant see a comment on why Mumford have been upgraded to strong rumour.

Is it on anything credible, or purely on lots of chatter about it? Ie Has the efestivals fella (Neil?) had something substantial suggesting it
