I shall wait for #2 before making another guess. I shall stick with The Beach Boys for now and see what happens.

[DomDom1984]

Brilliant.

Thinking about it, every fucking act has a letter 'E' in it.

You mean the clues are vague and unhelpful? WHAT A SURPRISE

Florence init

[DomDom1984]

Shit, that could be a good shout.

[mrtourette]

But if they gave you clues you'd go all around the houses and end up I'm China

[dentalplan]

Florence init

[DomDom1984]

Don't think that rules out definitely though.

[Matt42]

Florence closing the festival would be a horrible thing...

And I like a bit of her stuff!

[DomDom1984]

Florence and the Machine are surely at that level now. Someone needs to get on that. It needs to be a festival with a strong third headliner though. They won't do much with them, the co-headliners and another smaller headline act.

[DomDom1984]

Ah right.

[the wonderwhy]

Bummer.

I've just seen that Guns N' Roses have been announced for a US festival next year, hadn't realised they were already starting their next album tour. Seeing as they're nowhere else, could IOW have 'em? Not to do with the clue by the way. Also, The Cure doing shows again could be promising as they're not likely to be at any festivals either, not that they need to be.

[DomDom1984]

Is it a next album tour, or just a tour?

[Matt42]

I raised Guns and Roses a while ago, I remember my post said Biffy Clyro, Kings Of Leon And Guns And Roses...

would that be a feasible iow lineup?

[DomDom1984]

Would like to see if GNR are doing anything in Europe first. Would be a decent enough headliner set.

[justanothername]

Would they risk getting GnR considering the problems they bring with them and always turning up late and getting all pissy when people complain about it.
