Lineup 2015

[Tobieski]

Supposedly Melvin said at the barbecue his favourite act of the weekend was Foals, and that they may headline off a new album and mentioned 2015.

Woah 2015?! I was thinking more 2016, 17 maybe. I suppose if the next album is big enough, and it'd have to be huge, then they could

[Gucci Piggy]

I suppose it'd depend on when the next album was. New album, arena tour, then headline the next festival. Probably 2016, I agree. And obviously only if the album's a big hit.

[the wonderwhy]

I think Melvin is gay for Yannis.

I don't blame him, but come on...

[dentalplan]

Yeah he is sort of infatuated with him. They were the ones he was most looking forward to in March, now his best act of the weekend, booked them for Latitude and R+L, etc.

I'd also say 2016 as a guess for a new album but whenever it is, they will certainly headline off the back of it. They've played R+L the year of every album and he's already done the Latitude test drive.

[Com Truise]

Foals were good but miles away from being the best of the weekend, silly Melvin

[dentalplan]

He should have had them in the tent against Eminem. Wouldn't have been too crowded and they would have a light show and wouldn't have to play outdoors.

they definitely would have come across a lot better if they had been able to bring their tour light show, although I would still have watched Eminem and that means I wouldn't have been able to see them at all

Can we expand the festival to 4 days and make the Thursday a Biffy day, with Biffy playing each of their albums in full across 6 different stages throughout the whole day?

[the wonderwhy]

Only if Friday can be The Cure day

[Gucci Piggy]

To be fair, Melvin's favourite act of 2011 was Ed Sheeran, so at least he's getting better at this.

[Com Truise]

Only if Friday can be The Cure day

deal

[kaosmark2]

Can we have Saturday as a Mark Lanegan day while we're at it?

QOTSA

Mark Lanegan

Screaming Trees

Isobel Campbell + Lanegan

Soulsavers

Gutter Twins

+ 3-5 acts he's done collaborations with on the odd album.

[dentalplan]

Ah yes. Mark Laneghan day.

[kaosmark2]

It would be the best of days.

[robMUFC96]

Make Sunday Dave Grohl day too?

[the wonderwhy]

[justanothername]

How about we just make it Biffy all weekend. I'm down for that!

[2rare2die]

What members of Muse have been in NIN?!

NIN's bassist filled in for Morgan Nicholls for a bit I think.
