Supernintendo Chalmers Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Anyone got any ideas? People have already mentioned Jurassic 5 and Earth, Wind and Fire as two possible acts to play at West Holts. I'm really enjoying M.I.A's new album Matangi. Could be a good shout for a slot somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 After the success of Chic, EW&F would go down well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesiamaduck Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) Will Janelle Monae come back to headline this time round or will she be bumped up to a bigger stage after the 2010 show which still remains one of the best gigs I've experienced.

Looked brilliant. They need to continue to bring the disco funk for at least one again! (I have no idea whom ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 I reckon Nal will be along very shortly. Only to make sure its a Brian Ferry free zone! Agree with people about Janelle Monae's album. Average enough but I'm sure she'd go down well. More bluegrass (or even "newgrass") is needed on that stage. Badly. Alison Krauss and Union Station would solve that. Or someone like David Grisman. Been listening to "A Meeting by the River" by Ry Cooder and Vishwa Mohan Bhatt a lot. Let get Bhatt down to play. Sitting about in the field in the sun listening to this. Lovely. Not enough Indian music at Glasto either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboytaff Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Easily my favourite stage at Glastonbury. I'd love to see Jimmy Cliff putting in an appearance. Tom Waits, Earth Wind and Fire, George Benson, Joan Armatrading are all great shouts. I'd also throw in The Skints, Candi Staton and David Byrne. Loved the fact that the stage really took notice of this forum last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be first in the queue for any Talking Heads dates, but believe me when I say it's just not going to happen. They could stage a Question Time like event as the headliners where Chris, Tina and Jerry argue off against David and try to give him reasons why they should all play together It could be the next Brand vs Paxman! Yeah i've came to terms with it i think but i'll always live in hope that it might happen Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Mentioned her before, but I'd really like to see this wifey at West Holts: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/jul/18/christine-salem-womad-maloya And Jorge Ben. I've really been getting into his 70s albums like A Tabua de Esmeralda and Africa Brasil recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
