monkey1989 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I forgot how much I bloody love these guys and how many good tunes they have , where do you imagine they will be billed ? Sub headliner ? Big top headliner ? If they are big top I remember that last year the curfew for the top was much later so do you think there's a chance of catching main stage headliner and franz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smogo Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Main stage headliner and Big Top headliner generally don't clash (although there was a bit of a controversial overlap between New Order on the main stage and Justice in the Big Top last year; hope that's not a sign of things to come).

monkey1989 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 yes that was annoying new order were great and I was looking forward to Justice but after getting out the crowd and getting our bearings the big top was impossible get into and I think they had been for half an hour or more , can't complain to much had a great night elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisque Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I expect the new Big Top location won't as easily be as accessible from the Main Stage compared to the short uphill walk (& large movement from the Main Stage last year). This might cause a slight overlap but then bands pulling out & over running cock times up, I like that Bestival has the arena LED signs to notify you of changes.

Bisque Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 P.S. I think they'd be better suited to the Main Stage, I have preferred seeing DJs rather than bands in the Big Top, & with a decent back catalogue may attract a sizeable crowd.

kaosmark2 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Cheers guys! They're not tempting me to go to Bestival, I was sold by the Flaming Lips and Belle & Sebastian. They're one of a number of other acts I'm up for seeing if clashes allow though. Figure I may as well familiarise myself with other bits in the months to come though.

LondonTom Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Finally some quality video of the new songs! Ripped from the Coachella set! They are looking great, new songs sound fantastic! http://youtu.be/k4npIiYlP_8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) Not bad, clashes permitting I'll probably see them. I was surprised the American crowd were so into it though. Alex Kapranos now looks more like Brett Anderson, than Brett Anderson does. Edited April 15, 2013 by Frankly Mr Shankly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul ™ Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Looks a bit better than the Sleazys set right enough Might watch a bit of them if nothing else clashing.. but I doubt that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
