kaosmark2 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I believe either Latitude or Bestival is on the cards for him next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I refuse to go to a festival where Morrissey will get some of my ticket money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Then you're an idiot, fair enough if you don't like the man or his music, but that's pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave The Hedgehog Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I doubt I'd go see any of them to be honest. Dolly would be a novelty act to me in the same way someone like Tom Jones is. I'd like to see them but not headlining a festival. More a Legends slot at Glastonbury type act. Am I the only one who couldn't name more than three Dolly Parton songs? I think she'd be a decent booking but as a headliner she has no draw for me.

Joe- Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Dolly Parton would probably make me not buy a ticket. Jesus, it'd be so fucking awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) I'm going to guess at this point & say I could see it being: Mumford & Sons (or someone equally as radio friendly if a bigger fest gets them exclusively), Depeche Mode & No Doubt. Something like this perhaps: Mumford & Sons (or Bloc Party) Snoop Dogg Alt-J Depeche Mode Antony & the Johnsons Paloma Faith No Doubt Bon Iver Santigold With Vampire Weekend, M.I.A & The Knife (if talks of a new album are true) headlining the Big Top.

Vanderlyle Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Thing is, Dolly seems to be a hit with the atypical Bestival chin-stroker. Depeche Mode would be the sort of headliner that no other festival is attracted to but nonetheless good. Mumford & Sons would be there to appease the Radio 1 lot. Basically, it's the sort of thing Bestival would do. On the other hand, Bestival likes to have at least one 'dance' headliner don't they? In which case, I'd bump Mumford down to subs on either Friday or Saturday, and have The Chemical Brothers as Friday headliners. But honestly, can you see that at Bestival? The Chemical Brothers, Depeche Mode, Dolly Parton? Not bloody likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say Indie Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 That looks more like a Reading/Leeds lineup. (Are Murfons And Sons as bad as Mumford And Sons?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza_20 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Why? It's not like they'll attract a bad crowd. I can see them headlining & subbing R&L like Flo this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkey1989 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I thinks it's very likely prince will headline next year , rob seems to enjoy this kind of act and prince has recently been slagging off glastonbury for apparently using his name to sell tickets ( what an idiot ) so doubt he will be playing there YES !

Bort Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Would love to see Prince again, but could Bestival afford him? Isn't his going rate around $2-3 million? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey1989 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 if they can afford stevie wonder then prince would be feasible I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I have to say Prince is one of the best live acts in the world, certainly the best i've ever seen & I like to think I've been about a bit. A Bestival headline slot would be awesome... the only problems I see are: His huge fee, the fact he refuses to confirm shows until about 2 months prior & that he usually likes some sort of say/influence on the under card.
