The Non-Headlining Acts 2013

[eFestivals]

Over the moon that Polyphonic Spree are playing!

If you think that pic which listed glasto was confirmation that they are, I'd say you're mistaken.

The T in the Park date, and End of the Road date, were wrong - so it's very definitely not a list of solidly booked dates.

[JamesT977]

Gary Numan

Enter Shikari

Frightened Rabbit

Sigur Ros

Admiral Fallow

The Wailers

New Order

Jack White

The Black Keys

Placebo

Tenacious D

Snoop Dogg

Slash

Happy Mondays

The Gaslight Anthem

The Darkness

If any of those were to play i would be more than happy having seen some of them already i was very happy with seeing them. But most importantly the man that is -

ROLF HARRIS!

Should be there regardless.

[LondonTom]

Would Franz be too big to headline JPT?

[eFestivals]

Ahh right, so it's just festivals they want to play then?

that's my guess, yup.

Even if the dates were right I think it's hugely doubtful that they'd have got bookings from those fests this early - they're a very minor act in the scheme of things, and pretty unlikely to be considered for booking before around the end of the year because of that.

[poromenos]

What do you guys think are the chances of Black Keys and Jack White playing? They will both have an album out for 1+ year when the festival takes place,and they have already toured European festivals this summer.But they both seem to love the festival.So what do you think?What are the chances?

[Craigston]

Foals got a new album at next year. They're a good enough live band to headline the other stage, but probably not quite big enough. Think a sunset slot on the other would be a good one for them

[LondonTom]

I agree this would be great but having been quite low down at the John peel in 2010 (they were great!) I think they'll probably be lower down than sunset if they make the jump to the other.

[Craigston]

Have them headline the park

[Craigston]

Was looking in HMV today and see that the XX have an album due imminently. Think they could headline the other stage?

[mrtourette]

and I have heard they themselves have often said in a tent or nothing,

[thetime]

Yeah I've read before that they've said that they won't play outdoors, although that was two or three years ago.

[thetime]

Na. Far too lightweight to carry it off for me. Having streamed it a couple of times this morning (at coexist.thexx.info/), their new album is seriously wishy washy. Hopefully it's a grower as I liked the first album but at Glasto, I remember seeing bits of them twice in 2010 and being underwhelmed on both occasions.

[Bort]

Atoms for Peace?

I wish they did play low down, because that would make them more likely to headline JPT, but they played second to Jamie T. I'd much rather see them headline JPT, and I have heard they themselves have often said in a tent or nothing, but I can only really see them on Other or higher unfortunately. I think they'd be slightly too big for Park headliners, and possibly not in tone with it.

I'd love two of the days to be something like:

New Order

Foals

Crystal Castles

Jesus And The Mary Chain

The XX

Alt J

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

That's weird- my admittedly very hazy memory is of them being on far earlier than that! On checking, The XX were on after them for an hour or so before Jamie T and we stayed around there for them.

I also remember being gutted foals didn't play this orient. Maybe next year?

[TheBoz]

Jake Bugg to play surely?

[Mardy]

I'd love to see Jeffrey Lewis on the undercard. Fairly low down on the Park or JP, probably.

[Craigston]

XX were on before them, then Foals, then Jamie T

[Field Commander Jefferson]

Peter Daltrey and Kaleidoscope are touring again...would be class to see

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

Vaccines were on Soccer AM this morning saying how much they enjoyed Pilton Party. Could they headline JPT? I can only really see them playing in JPT, and although them headlining it might be a push, them playing PP, Alexandra Palace and having a new record might just justify them as headliners.

[chriseede]

I can see vaccines being pretty high on pyramid or other, look at the position they have played at festivals this year.
