2013 headliners

[Paul ™]

nah mate, it was actually a stab at RHCP (due to playing shows in england, IOW would be away from that, one of my the Stone Roses reasons, The Prodigy and The Roses.

I had said The killers for a long long time now though.

[gazza_20]

You also mentioned guessed Arctic Monkeys and Arcade Fire..

[Paul ™]

But I do think The Prodigy, AF/Muse and The Roses are 3 out of your 4 probs.

[gazza_20]

This is what happens when you predict/guess/spout a whole load of acts, you can't even remember what you have said. It's not the first time you've done it either, maybe check back over your old posts.

[Paul ™]

That was back in July, and to be honest, I have no want to go back page upon page to July lol. It was AF/Muse which put a question over both of them. And it was 3 out of 4 of the selection in reply.

You were happy enough to go back to July to claim you called it correct on the Stone Roses though

[the wonderwhy]

another announcement next monday at 8 (not a headliner)

[Tobieski]

I reckon it's gonna be The Killers filling in the remaining slot, maybe Mumford and Sons though?

So The Killers are headlining TITP next year now, does this pretty much cancel them out for IOW?

[mrtourette]

Not at all.

[Tobieski]

It makes them majorly likely.

[gazza_20]

Oh okay, I don't really know the connections T and IOW have, thanks

[Paul ™]

they share a few to be fair. you wouldn't be far off the mark we'll say predicting a band to play at IOW and T, the fests are close enough and the places are miles apart.

[gazza_20]

They don't really share headliners though, 2 in the last 10 years!

[the wonderwhy]

Have we ruled out Kasabian?

[Gucci Piggy]

[the wonderwhy]

They've already headlined on the Velociraptor! tour...

[Gucci Piggy]

Forgot they did 2011

[AcademicPistol]

I had a dream last night that Neil Young was announced as a headliner for Isle of Wight and I don't really pay attention to the festival to be honest.

yeah, sorry, a bit of a cock-up there, soz.

I can't be giving Scott enough work to do if he's got the time to be writing fill-in-the-blanks news stories in advance of a line-up announcement.

I wonder if Monday's headliner will play glastonbury too? Or will they be another festival exclusive?
