Would be incredible. But are they still performing? They seemed to have dissappeared from view for the last couple of years... Another thought. Radiohead are touring, and have announced festival dates everywhere but the UK. Given the recent tour announcement, could they be waiting for the UK tour to sell out (although I guess the tour would sell out irrespective of the festival)?

[rexclark]

Garbage still haven't announced any festivals over the summer. Would absolutely love it if they played.

With the Summer Sundae announcement today, it would be awesome to see Ocean Colour Scene somewhere at Bestival.

[Homer]

Er, no it wouldn't (that is a fact I'm afraid).

There's something that I really hate about OCS - I think it's the fact they're bloody awful.

[hazzamid11]

Pfft i love OCS, some fantastic albums and incredible live, their show at TITP last year was special, a midday spot on the mainstage would be great.

[Joe-]

Ouch, some hate for OCS haha.

See, I used to quite like Ocean Colour Scene. They take me back to being 13/14 watching TFI Friday, getting pissed on white lightning in parks and then waking up to The Big Breakfast. I only like about two or three of their songs, like, but if I decide to lift my embargo on alcohol, have a pint and hang about on Sunday afternoon watching some Britpop band in the sunshine, I wouldn't mind them. Same if it were a band like Cast or Dodgy.

Every time I hear White Lightning, it makes me feel a bit sick.

Ewwwwwww

[Homer]

If I'm hungover and decide to have a tactical vom, I just imagine downing a pint of White Lightning. Works every time (including this morning!).

[Dave The Hedgehog]

The Big Breakfast wasn't on on Saturdays (or were you video recording either that or TFI Friday?).

[Joe-]

1997? Ha, grandpa. I'm joking.

[Homer]

No it's just a brief summary of the sort of weekends I used to have in the summer holidays in 1997/98/99. more often than not the soundtrack to those summer holidays featured Britpop bands. It's dusty nostalgia, of course, but I had some great times listening to those sort of bands, and don't stroke my chin looking back. Good memories are good memories.

[Joe-]

Okay, just to clarify, you haven't got any videos of classic episodes of the The Big Breakfast that I can borrow then? (Oh, and I'll need a video recorder to watch them on too. Mine's in a loft in Bristol but I might be able to retrieve it in the next few weeks if that helps.)

If not i'd be quite happy if it was just Gruff on his own, he was excellent at Glasto last year.

Spiritualized live in session on 6music, coming up during Laverne's show on air now (and playing a track from De La Soul yesterday). Apparently it's all on the red button too (and Orbital are playing at some point)...

[LondonTom]

This is becoming so much like an Alan Partridge conversation it's unbelievable - but I think if it were chronologically correct, Football Italia on Channel 4 would be what I'd actually watch saturday morning.
