gazza_20 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) Travis sub headlining? You sure? Be surprised if they even made main stage nowadays. Edited July 19, 2012 by gazza_20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I knew they were only 3rd down but they still played only 3 years ago... And Muse do have a new album coming out later this year. I do fully expect a Scottish day on the Friday. Something along these lines: Biffy Clyro Paolo Nutini Franz Ferdinand Fratellis Proclaimers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jump Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I'm not sure at all mate, I had made a a point before than I'm unsure of his popularity levels now but I'm all for him being lower for something better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza_20 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Travis is a band and Paolo is a guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenfire Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Paolo, sadly, would sub at T now. Not going to headline main but played 3rd down in 2010 and headlined Rockness last year. He is more popular than Franz and T like putting bands a bit different on a subs compared to the headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Paolo, sadly, would sub at T now. I'm not entirely sure about that. Snow Patrol headlined this year, and Paolo can shift a damned sight more tickets for a tour than they can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I hope this isn't suggesting for Paolo to play, it could be headline It's far from impossible, I'd say. A couple of years ago there were few acts that could shift tickets as quickly as he could. Because of the sort of act* he is, I doubt his popularly has fallen much since then. (* 'pop' acts tend to fall away very quickly when their popularity starts to wane. MOR acts like Paolo tend to have their popularity hold up much better when they're no longer the act of the moment).

jump Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Surely if this did happen, it'd have to be the friday though and would rule biffy out as a headliner as that'd be pretty much plain weak, though judging by your most recent comments, you don't feel biffy is at that point quite yet.

gazza_20 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Neil is not saying it's likely to happen merely possible besides Friday doesn't mean a weak headliner as they've had the likes of Muse on there before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetime Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I've never said he had. Friday was going by people's thought of it being a scottish day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uber Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I know the bands they are at least considering, I just got an email through asking me to complete a survey of who they wanted to headline. I asked for the headlines to be: Daft Punk, Coldplay, U2 and for other major acts I asked for: Adele, Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney and The XX Unlikely they would get all these to one festival, but I can always dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefski Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Got that email also, survey is here http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/9ZKXQZG for headliners I went with Paul McCartney, Blur, Green Day major acts - Jack White, Arcade Fire, The Black Keys "out the box" act - Outkast new acts - Azeila Banks, Tribes, People Places Maps no chance of it happening, interesting to see who they consider headline/major acts though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
