The cynic in me thinks they will hold back the likes of Arcade Fire for this and leave T with a third rate lineup again. More money to be made for the promoters plus they can book them again for the Hydro in late autumn.

I think that's a really strong set of headliners and pretty much the best they could wish for.

You have arctics who are the biggest draw in the UK at the minute, biffy with there Scottish connections and a headliner now and arcade fire where pretty much every major mainstream festival wants as headliners.

Saying that Arcade Fire won't headline.

Biffy and Arcade Fire to co-headline one night? Just putting it out there (unless anyone already has).

With some dreadful pop act doing the other to balance it out.

T might have got a boot up the backside from not selling out and may splash a bit more cash like they did in 2011.

On an unrelated point, with The Offspring being announced for Download I would love them at T but don't see it happening with the current T audience.

I feel weird hearing all this optimism regarding lineup, surely its not going to be another crash and burn like last year after positive chat beforehand, very doubtful Quo or Offspring will play but more chance of Offspring

Defo next announcement in Feb

I've just found this on wiki...

"The festival attracts up to 85,000 people each day, along with 70,000 campers. Some feel that the event has become a haven for neds and anti-social behaviour; others believe that this perception is an exaggeration."

Wouldn't mind it if they managed to get Blink-182 booked again, I know lot of people who were gutted when they pulled out in 2011 (The Strokes was a better choice though). Would imagine Limp Bizkit would also go down quite well with most people? Can't see any of the Download acts being there, The Offspring are most likely, and would be a laugh to see live, but I doubt they'll go for it.

    • It does feel like there's a push back against net zero from both left and right, but especially the right. Probably since Trump I guess, but even before Trump you had the tea party and Sarah Palin thing, but over here the right were on board with the issue of climate change and the need to address it, from Thatcher through to Johnson. That has now changed, first it was the populist right, not it is mainstream, with Badenoch making the two prerequisites for standing for the Tories being against net zero, and for leaving the ECHR. You can be an ex neo-nazi as long as you are against net zero. At least many now seem to accept the climate change is happening and it is caused by us, but they now say well it will be a nice mediterranean climate so lets bin net zero anyway and just have fun f**k all that woke green sh*t. But also the left, with various trade union leaders and blue labour types going on about net zero being bad for the economy and the need for reindustrialisation as we head back to the glory days of the 50s when we all worked down pit or something, ignoring the amount of industries and jobs created by net zero. The greens obviously are still firmly behind the net zero thing, but the party is also full of nimbys who are worried about hedgerows and hedgehogs and votes, and even the leadership have realised that there isn't votes in climate doomerism but there definitely is in bashing billionaires and Israel. I guess the main driver of net zero policies in the country is still Miliband which is probably why everyone seems to be f**king terrified of him, the mad freak and his renewables. He is out of the energy department, but his replacement is hardly a petrolhead, and he isn't in the treasury doing terrifying things like spending money, but he is in the foreign office which is maybe a good place for him because climate change is a global issue and its going to take a global effort.
