Foals

[TheSeventhOne]

Now added as a Strong Rumour. Where did this one come from? Fairly happy either way - their new stuff sounds excellent.

[russycarps]

other stage headliner perhaps? I have no clue how popular they are with the masses really. I liked their 2nd one more than their first.

new album this month I believe.

[ghandi]

Ah, i like this, struggled with the first album but ' Live Life Forever" was brilliant, i look forward to the third, i saw them support Bloc Party when they released the second album and were great live. I would go and see them, although i hope they don't headline as the would probably clash with something, i'm thinking they might clash with the Stones on Saturday if they do headline the JP.

I'm fairly lucky this year, I've been given itk info from the horses mouths about the plans of Foals, Johnny Marr and Howler. But I'm not going to reveal, I'll never have anything like this again. (I realise the proportion of people that give a shit is very small).

Is it that they all have/plan to release new albums and follow them up with some gigs and festival appearances?

[FloorFiller]

yes! absolutely love Foals, and they were one of my favourite live acts ever when they played Glastonbury in '10. such energy, and considering how rocking their new songs are sounding i imagine it'll be amped up even more. good news. quite high up on Other i imagine

[LondonTom]

Brilliant ...I am a fan of both the first two albums (2nd is miles better obviously). Odd to place I'd say at the moment but a headline set in the JPT would be brilliant

[Joeskeppi]

I'd love it if the rumours page explained where the rumour came from. NO reason other than I find it interesting.

[Sketchead]

Pretty obvious they were going to play with the new album coming out. Not sure what stage/position though.

[FloorFiller]

headlining John Peel or high Other are the only positions i can possibly see them playing, and considering they were second on the John Peel last time, i'd say high Other seems most likely

[mattgimmeshelter]

What an amazing thing to wake up to! YAY for foals!

[Lewis Cato]

I reckon headlining John Peel; they said that they don't like playing in front of big crowds.

[Joeskeppi]

Would be pointless - most of the explanations would just be "from a source"

Neil is hardly going to reveal who told im is he?

[evilduck]

Great news! I absolutely loved Total Life Forever and I can't wait for the new album.

[jackarmy]

Is the next album not set to be their last? Could see them bowing out with a JP Headline slot like The Streets did.

[shinobi93]

I reckon JP. Pretty sure they don't like playing large outdoor stages as they prefer tents.

[ghandi]

I hope its the JP on either Friday or Sunday. I am still to be convinced whether or not i will see Arctics on friday ( if they headline) , and as it seems to be either Fleetwood mac or Gaga on Sunday at the Pyramid it would free me up to see the Foals, given the choice if a Friday i would see the foals...... and guess i have that choice

[jackarmy]

Why would it be? :S Anythings possible I suppose but it seems a strange comparison....

[Lewis Cato]

Pretty sure they did Other stage in the afternoon in 08 or 07 or something.
