The 2013 prediction game thread!

[dentalplan]

I don't know enough bands on the NME/indie/R1 circuit to contribute a serious guess, so this is more of a best case scenario for me, with a smattering of hunches and names I've heard on this forum, but I don't really know who they are...

There aren't many guesses with female fronted bands, or just bands with females in I general. I think it's something that my prediction in waiting currently has a lack of also.

[dentalplan]

Haim & Azela Banks are rumoured for V so they aren't really popping up despite being thought of as likely and Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, Joy Formidable, XX, Jack White (if you count the backing band)and Gogol Bordello are getting a few mentions.

My Bloody Valentine and Of Monsters and Men have had a couple of mentions too. I think there's plenty being suggested when you think of past lineups and the amount of current acts with female members.

Best not risk it and everyone should start predictiong Paramore & Florence!

and bjork.

The FR stage headliners aren't include in the prediction game tho.

[mrtourette]

They did an interview last year that suggested that they were more open to festivals and less likely to make the ridiculous demands that they did at Download (such as with their own stage).
