T In The Park 2014

[devilman]

Kinross is in Asia. And the Aussies are here just now. True science FCAT right there. It's the Stones.

Or Bowie. Or KoL. Or AM. Or Biffy. Or Snow Patrol.

[the wonderwhy]

Watch as you guys get Florence

[Muppetmark]

We'd be in this position even if that jebend hadn't said anything though. All the while both parties have announcements people are going to link the two.

Whilst I admit it's likely to be a coincidence the fact that both T and the Stones have said they're announcing tomorrow, and the fact that there is nothing actually ruling the Stones out (bar maybe cost which can be offset by booking a weaker undercard or letting them headline IOW/R&L as well) means it's more than just 'hope'

(I'm being pedantic here, I can't sleep )

[kingcrawler]

I can take the despair. It's the hope I can't stand.

Great to see a T forum back, hope it lasts...

On a seperate note, not that they have much chance of playing Sigur Ros tonight was possibly one of the best things I've watched

[Chiefski]

I thought they were great but I preferred their Glasgow gig in March. Not sure how well they'd go down at T, or where they'd play for that matter.

It's been a brilliant few days of gigs for me, Sigur Ros, QOTSA and Arcade Fire.

Can I be first to mention indie landfill on the new forum? Anyways, now that this has come to light, looks like we might get some on the line up next year

Well if we get past lunchtime and no stones announcement the more excited folk will be getting.

[mrtourette]

T announcement at 4pm tomorrow

each member of the band has tweeted that there's gig news coming tomorrow

T twitter says this is a huge first headliner

You still doubt?

[Matt42]

I don't really want the stones to play really, would be nice though but I'd feel like seeing them at at won't have the same impact as Glasto..

Seems very quiet on here considering theres a headliner due to be announced today.

Do you think T twitter message was a hint at Arctic Monkeys, hope it's someone a bit more surprising than them. Seem to be everywhere at the moment, just be nice to be someone different, I don't expect rolling stones but someone not expected as much as Biffy/KOL/AM would be nice!

Any idea on the time of the announcement and if it's just a headliner, had quite a few acts before christmas ticket sales last year!

[JamesT977]

I can see it now

"The Rolling Stones will headline the Saturday Night" - Geoff Ellis

"I better go to this they were great at Glastonbury!" - Me

3 Months later...

"We are very excited to announce that the other headliners for T in the Park 2014 will be....SNOW PATROL AND KASABIAN" - Zane Lowe

"Fuck you Zane Lowe." - Me

[eFestivals]

it's not going to be the stones, their announcement is at 4am tomorrow - which defo means it's a tour in the southern hemisphere they're announcing.

[Millar95]

Probably the predictable booking of Arctic Monkeys then-.-

[eFestivals]

Any evidence on who it may be? Or idea?

If it's not the main names that most are guessing at, we've got a small hunch on who it might be (tho that might turn out to be too much of a presumption) - but I'm not able to give further details because that hunch has come about via some must-stay-confidential info.

If that hunch turns out to be right then it'll go down at least as well overall as the main names that are being rumoured - tho they'll be some who will immediately scream that it's pop crap.... but it'll be no more pop than the T normals over many years.

So it'll go down well with most but will be accused of being pop crap by the likes of devilman and frankblack. That doesn't narrow it down much.

Relatively amusing reading this thread for the past few days. It is the same every year - everybody gets there hopes up for a massive act, and then bang! We all realise it is TITP that is catering for 18-25 yr olds - who have more interest (in general, there will be exceptions) in Lady Gaga and JT than the Rolling Stones.

Anyway, I hope I am proven wrong. I don't think the Arctics are a bad headliner either - 5 albums, a good set list and a good live band. I would imagine Biffy are a dead cert as well - they need to headline this year or lose that gap of popularity.

Which leaves a more "popular" act - JT, Gaga, Katy Perry etc etc.

I wonder who I was thinking off..?
