Gucci Piggy Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Bloc Party? How long are they meant to be out for?? Won't be back next Summer, plus they'll headline with reunion hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawaudioinput Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Has anyone listened to the new Naked and Famous album? It's really incredible, definitely more mature-sounding. Would like to see them at Reading next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) £204 I think. I read that about mbv, but Neil's not sure that's the case. Don't wanna go into the details cause I'll get confused and misquote him but he thinks they may still have been considered (I think). MBV are Irish. Edit: and so are Villagers. I am dumb. Didn't realise Irish acts were included. Edited September 17, 2013 by dentalplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see them at Reading next year. Do you have a link? I loved the first record. I could see them playing low NME next year to be honest, like where Darwin Deez Played this year Edited September 17, 2013 by Tobieski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Com Truise Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 MBV are Irish. Edit: and so are Villagers. I am dumb. Didn't realise Irish acts were included. Britain and ROI I guess? Depends where they're from in Ireland doesn't it though £204 I think. I read that about mbv, but Neil's not sure that's the case. Don't wanna go into the details cause I'll get confused and misquote him but he thinks they may still have been considered (I think). Hm, okay, I don't know much about it anyway, just saw the mbv article and thought it sounded like a really silly rule. Of course they could have stretched the truth just cause they were a bit sore they weren't nominated (did sound a bit sore) Won't be back next Summer, plus they'll headline with reunion hype. Didn't know how long they're gonna be gone for, they'd dropped off the radar even before they said they were gonna stop for a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Ah I forgot about Foster the People. Was trying to think of someone to replace The 1975 as I don't think they're big enough really (a Mercury nomination would have helped). I've got Friendly Fires down as 3rd on main, although I think 4th would be more realistic. Struggling to think of acts to play third down with Enter Shikari and TDCC likely ruled out. I think Friendly Fires will get quite a boost off the next album, they were 4th last time so 3rd or NME headliner is probably right. I think 3rd we could see the ones Andre said (You Me At Six, Vampire Weekend, Weezer, Bullet For My Valentine, The Maccabees, The Offspring) and then maybe The National, Friendly Fires, Franz Ferdinand, Jake Bugg, Bastille at a push, Snoop Dogg, Frank Ocean. Also Soundgarden, Raconteurs and Beady Eye as possibilities depending on what their related bands are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Didn't know how long they're gonna be gone for, they'd dropped off the radar even before they said they were gonna stop for a bit I could see them not coming back. "Hiatus" after both of their last two albums, with Matt not taking part in the latest gigs. Glad I saw them a couple of times on the Four tour, as I'd not seen them before (probably sounds crazy to everyone who's been to R&L a few times ).

They're as big as almost everyone there really, aren't they? I think they'll play third if they don't headline NME. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Com Truise Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Also Soundgarden, Raconteurs and Beady Eye as possibilities depending on what their related bands are doing. where would the Dead Weather fit? I could see them not coming back. "Hiatus" after both of their last two albums, with Matt not taking part in the latest gigs. Glad I saw them a couple of times on the Four tour, as I'd not seen them before (probably sounds crazy to everyone who's been to R&L a few times ). I can see that too, my friend would be absolutely devastated. they are literally the thing she loves most in the world, and she still hasn't seen them live!

dentalplan Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 where would the Dead Weather fit? Similar I suppose. It's the Jack White effect. But they won't be there if Queens are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Truise Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Similar I suppose. It's the Jack White effect. But they won't be there if Queens are. Not even if they're the same day? Deftones/Quicksand etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Not even if they're the same day? Deftones/Quicksand etc Dean would have to play for a lot longer than Sergio Vega did. On more instruments, if that makes a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose, but if Queens headlined he'd get a decent length break, not that FR are gonna book anything Jack White related so I might as well give up now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2rare2die Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Dean would have to play for a lot longer than Sergio Vega did. On more instruments, if that makes a difference. I remember JEW playing twice in one day (main stage and then Lock-up headliner) and I'm pretty sure MCR played both sites in one day, so I'm sure it's not totally out of the question, though it's probably unlikely.

DomDom1984 Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Lots of Lock-Up acts in the past have done main stage I think. Pretty sure NOFX, Less Than Jake and Alkaline Trio have all done it in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
