Line Up - Predictions

[harryomatic]

I also missed The Prodigy that night. All my friends say they were absolutely incredible. And where was I? Trying not to spew by the side of my tent having drunk far too much. Biggest rookie mistake of my first year at T.

[DomDom1984]

It doesn't matter who they clash with. Do NOT bet against The Prodigy. For fuck sake. DO NOT BET AGAINST THE PRODIGY!!!

[KeithDelBasso]

Saw Prodigy in 08, 09 and 10. 08 was amazing, was totally blown away.

09 and 10 felt like a case of deja-vu. Exact same set, exact same shout to the crowd. Was all a bit boring if I'm honest.

The new stuff sounds like it's from Experience. It's mental.

[KeithDelBasso]

Saw them last year at Creamfields and they've definitely spiced things up a bit, some shit hot new songs off their new album, new edits of old songs, different song order etc. I would 100% recommend seeing their updated show.

Bollocks - he will be touring until he hits his 50s. There will be plenty of chances to see him live, even more so as his record sales fall.

[devilman]

I fell into that "oh I have to see him this will be my only chance" trap back in 2010 and it was the biggest festival regret I made, he was absolutely shocking.. and to think I missed The Prodigy for that shit

Not too bad an evolution of my past line ups. Nice big of diversity, some safe bookings, a few more adventurous ones.

[BGW]

I love Vampire Weekend with AM. That'd work excellently. Also great call with Drake, Bombay, Disclosure and Skrillex. I think if Lana Del Rey plays, which would be fantastic, she could go on the Main stage like she did at Coechella in 2013. She has a similar singing style to Frank Ocean who did well on the Main in 2013. Also, Skrillex has been touring with Major Lazer a lot recently, we could see them together as ML would be a very solid booking and are releasing new material. I'm not entirely sure Example would be great, I know he's releasing a new album this year but nobody really seems to care very much.

Otherwise as a lineup that looks fantastic, I could definitely get involved with that.

[harryomatic]

Yeah I wasn't too bothered with Example either, but had to have some more mainstream pop stuff in there. Lana Del Rey would work on main, I agree, just thought she would make a slightly different Tuts headlining alternative to an Indy/rock headliner on main and dance act on NME.

[harryomatic]

Would Vampire Weekend be good for a tuts headliner? I personally think they'd be better on main stage, in the sun. But then this is T, and a ) it won't be sunny, and b ) they're weird with bookings e.g. Wanting to put Tom Jones in a tent

[BGW]

I went to see them on their UK arena headline tour last winter. It sold out and the crowds loved it. They can definitely be justified as a headliner and put on one hell of a show, they could definitely work in there or on main just as well.

[kingcrawler]

Are Vampire Weekend even touring this summer? I haven't seen them announce anything.

[harryomatic]

Nothing announced so far as I'm aware, they just seem like a standard new album, play some festivals booking that might happen. Nothing to say they will play apart from that, but nothing to say they won't

[Matt42]

Vampire weekend are doing alot of US tests... but nothing in terms of europe

Infact they seem to be playing headline / sub headline slots at those festivals.

[DomDom1984]

Can't really take US festival placings into account. A different beast entirely. I can't see Vampire Weekend getting confirmed. I want them to be however.

[DomDom1984]

We're set for a long hot summer apparently. So chances are decent, especially mid-July.

[BGW]

I'd love to see them anywhere really, but they went down at treat in the sun at Glastonbury last year, would love to see that replicated at T, especially by a classy band. Not just another pop singer. Maybe before or after Lana Del Rey would fit them beautifully.

[guitarbhoy1888]

T very rarely does this but could they have gotten coldplay possibly on like a european festival exclusive or something.

as much as they played a while ago. if they managed that they'd sell a shit load of tickets

[Matt42]

So what time do you think T will announce tomorrow?

Isle of wights got the morning booked, could we have a mid day and afternoon split announcement?
