I would be delighted with CHVRCHES this year, as i had to miss them for the poor Stereophonics last year, but I love their debut and think they would be great in Tuts!

Update: Sorted out OP

hopefully gives more information / perspective.

Why are KoL blue?

Also, I'd say Placebo are likely, unless they're busy all weekend. They'll do what they always do with albums at festivals and do stuff pretty much every day of the summer. Whether that's T or not I don't know, but with Biffy and Monkeys headlining, there's a chance they'll throw a couple of bands like that on there.

[DomDom1984]

Another question actually. Why would Foals not play?

[Matt42]

No reason why they won't, and they probably are

[rossm18]

The only reason they mabey wouldn't was if they were headlining rockness but that doesn't look like it will be on now

[DomDom1984]

The crowd went beyond the production area while Phonics were on. Not bad at all. Nobody is sure who's playing the fests this year, since nobody is announcing.

[kingcrawler]

Where would Foals play? Tuts headliner or subbing Radio 1 Stage again?

[DomDom1984]

I was thinking the former. I'm actually thinking they WON'T play, but I don't see a particular reason for that hunch. And I hope they do play.

Arctic Monkeys announced a show in Dublin Saturday 12th July, so would seem that the info about them playing Friday could be correct. Obviously still available for Sunday although I think if Biffy do it they'll play Sunday.

AM are supported by Miles Kane, Jake Bugg and Royal Blood so would suggest we'd get them as well.

Also, Skrillex, Rudimental and others playing in Serbia over the T weekend.

I could watch Miles Kane in King Tuts every year. Although he'll probably be outdoors if he played again, which would be interesting. I'd definitely catch.

Royal Blood have potential.

Didn't like Jake Bugg's debut album. At all. But the second album is quite decent. I'd give him a watch.

[DomDom1984]

I'd say Rudimental is as certain as anyone. Skrillex? I'd tip him for Radio 1 on the Saturday.

[Ukulelelad92]

Skrillex headlining radio 1 looks very likely as does both disclosure and rudimental headlining tuts.

Standing by the fact that arctics are playing friday with biffy on sunday

[Matt42]

updated!

[kingcrawler]

I'd say Rudimental are more likely to sub radio 1 or play 3rd on main than headline tuts.

Brian Jonestown Massacre are playing Denmark in June, wouldn't be surprised if they play T as they seem to play every few years. Probably high up on Transmissions again.

[DomDom1984]

Aye, Rudimental and Disclosure are outdoors.
