Benicassim 2012

[Shaun Child]

I'm very happy to hear that Bombay Bicycle Club & Miles Kane will be attending, would like Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Little Dragon, Joe Goddard and Pulp.

Anyone flying to Alicante? Thinking of booking eufest? Think it's the cheapest way to get back & forth to the Festival, only £48 return.

Cant see the KOL being there, not on tour, nothing to promote and i doubt Caleb could give a fuck about a few years ago! Even if it was bloody annoying to have missed them! Also not sure The Killers have confirmed any dates anywhere yet as there still working on the new album so they wont commit until that has a release date?

I reckon one of Pulp or Blur is a good shout though! The other not a clue!

[5co77ie]

more acts for Festival Internacional de Benicassim (fib) announced tomorrow

[agould]

would be very happy with Blur!

[saints15]

As long as Florence is the Thursday headliner, which she should be then we can expect two other big headliners, which I reckon it could be Blur/Pulp and The Killers, as The Killers with a new album out this year are bound to announce some dates this summer

[Createur]

Pulp will not play. They have been booked for SOS 4.8 Festival in Murcia, Spain. It will be their only appearance in Spain 2012.

[Createur]

Has it been confirmed that it's their only appearance or is it assumed that it will be their only appearance?

[philly_eds]

It's confirmed.

[chel]

wouldn't mind it if blur is gonna be there. quite like to see swedish house mafia too. really not feeling snow patrol/the killers though D: so hope them rumours arn't true

[DrGonzo444]

Any chance that Bjork might play? She is doing a festival tour this year.

Does anybody know the reliability of this website? Seems very likely but i've never heard of the website so i'm a bit sceptical.

EDIT: Efestivals has listed New Order as TBC so i think we can presume it is pretty likely

yeah, that website appears to be publishing a stock exchange announcement by Vince Power's company, so it's very probably accurate.

I believe it's the case that UK-listed PLC's have to make major announcements that have a significant impact on their profit/loss projections to the stock exchange before anywhere else as a legal obligation.

So it's perhaps the case that the announcements of other promoters could be found early in a similar way, tho there's not many if any other promoters who are operating their events thru a UK-based PLC.

[eFestivals]

we've just recieved info that should ber 100% accurate that New Order are NOT one of the headliners.

I've got to say I was quite surprised by that article saying they were. They're not a big enough draw nowadays for that.

[evilduck]

Glad of that! It will be nice to see New Order but I would have been disappointed if they were a headliner.

Is there a possibility of them still playing? Would like to see them but like everybody else i'm happy they aren't headlining.
