The Courteeners at latitude? Nah

Do you not think they would fit there? Latitude is the sister fest of R&L owned by the same people yeah?

[Gucci Piggy]

The Courteeners are the least Latitude band in existence. Latitude is typically for good, critically acclaimed artists, watched by nice people; not shitty lad rock by numbers.

I dont know how lad rock they are, only heard a few of their songs even though I have their album on my laptop. And I would say there are more bands worse suited to Latitude ie Nearly anyone from download/sonisphere/bloodstock (apart from Chas and Dave...)

[Tobieski]

No the Courteeners are absolutely not suited to Latitude. Just look at the line-ups it's had since it's conception

[Pothuthic]

I wat Chas N Dave for V.

[daniel.k]

I wat Chas N Dave for V.

In the 5ive slot yeah?

[Pothuthic]

In the 5ive slot yeah?

They'd be higher than that, my bet would be opening main stage on Saturday (ala Proclaimers)

Sounds good, ive never made it across to main stage to see the opening act and I think I would keep it that way

[Pothuthic]

Poor Chas N Dave, better than passenger

[daniel.k]

Passenger wouldnt open main stage though, I think he could be 3rd or 4th from the start in the arena, as much as I would like him to be on main or 4music I dont think it would work

[Pothuthic]

Snooker loopy nuts are we

Chas N Dave I can safely say would be the best sing along ever <3

Someone on the V page suggested Las Ketchup, with part of my heart dedicated to shit like Asereje, I want this very much, it would be the perfect humour

[Rose-Colored Boy]

following up on the the courteeners discussion, read today that they've gone on hiatus for a year as of December

also Macklemore's website is horribly difficult to understand but it looks like they're in Denmark V weekend

[DomDom1984]

Not surprised at the Courteeners news at all.

[Com Truise]

They also said in their last Manchester show that it was bollocks and they aren't taking a break

[Rose-Colored Boy]

really? my mate was there, huge fan, and said nothing about that lmao. still don't think they'll be at V though.

[Com Truise]

Yep

Daniel Falconer ‏@DanarazziDec 14

Also confirmed tonight - Courteeners going on a break has been SCRAPPED! @What_Liam_Said told us!

Natalie H ‏@nat71985Dec 14

When @What_Liam_Said said courteeners won't be taking a break was probably the best news I've had all year. #godblesstheband

among others I saw on the night

[DomDom1984]

So it wasn't bollocks then. They scrapped the plans.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

she must have been pissed clearly..never mind eh

[Com Truise]

So it wasn't bollocks then. They scrapped the plans.

They said something along the lines of "Some of you may have seen that we're taking a break, that's rubbish, we're not"

[DomDom1984]

So Justin Timberlake is as good as confirmed then?

Cracking addition that.

[Pothuthic]

I think it's a good choice too

[daniel.k]

So Justin Timberlake is as good as confirmed then?

Cracking addition that.

Will appeal to most of the people who liked Beyonce last year, but all being well I will be somewhere else when he is on. He will probably put on a good show though

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Nah Justin's fanbase are nowhere near as intense so it should be a better atmosphere.

[Pothuthic]

And plus I don't think many will buy a ticket just for him, unlike Beyonce
