2013 lineup

[eFestivals]

Jim will snap up AF if given half the chance.

I'm not sure he'd get that chance. As far as I'm aware their UK agent is one of Melvin's sidekicks.

[chickenfire]

So in that case who is more likely to get them next summer? (if they are touring anyway)

I would hate if Arcade Fire played bestival and not Rockness or even T. Isle of Wight is just too annoying and expensive to get to from Scotland.

[Spartacus Mars]

Remind me. Arcade Fire are the numpies who were praising Obama in 2008 for his promise to close the (still very open) Guantanamo Bay?

Just tell them David Cameron cured cancer in Africa and the idiots will turn up and gig for free.

Don't get me wrong, their politics are fine, but bands praising politicians is creepy.

Calvin Harris

Florence + the Machine (with Ellie Goulding subbing)

Fatboy Slim

I could see this headlining trio next year.

Elbow pulled a minuscule crowd at T this year. I just don't think the general public are interested in them bar "One Day Like This".

I was thinking maybe Primal Scream?

[Eh Ah Ken]

next person who says Daft Punk is banned from this forum.

[Stanton]

Caught a documentary on sky arts the other night about Moby. Would love to see him up at Rockness. Seen him in Prague in 2003 and its in ma top five gigs of all time. Dunno if he's still gigging with the band though.

Think Primal Scream would be good but would prefer if they were in the tent. Everytime I've seen them outdoors they seem to have struggled a wee bit.

[Spartacus Mars]

Well, if that was his promise that he didn't fulfill, I fail to see how that makes THEM "numpties".

[Chiefski]

Calvin Harris with Dizzee Rascal 'special guesting'/subbing

The Prodigy

Arcade Fire

Primal Scream, The Vaccines and Chase n Status possibly somewhere there too

[RMcCole]

Would be awfa happy with that and that's coming from someone who's indifferent towards Arcade Fire.

Thy won't get The Prodigy and AF. And Chase and Status would headline it now I reckon

[chriseede]

Anyone believing a politician is a numpty, let alone such an aggressively mainstream one.

Think AF would be ideal for it, moreso than they would be at T, do think The Prodigy is a bit iffy (could be one of T's NME headliners, tho I reckon they will get Chemical Bros as one of their main dance acts).

Chase and Status are a bit of a funny one to me, they probably could headline, but dont scream out as much as an act too, kinda in the same sense that Justice were to this years event, could have done it, but didnt, and I really dont see them back at T again next year. would be ideal in the largest tent against Calvin or AF from the names I've given. Also thought Bloc Party could have been a high stage possibility but they will be set for T most likely

So why no discussion about the line up for 2017?
