European Festival Watch 2014

[dentalplan]

Because this place needs more threads, I just thought I'd set up one of these so we can keep track through the announcement-heavy months. When more get announced please do post them in here, particularly for the big acts at obscure Euro festies. I've tried to stick closely to relevant acts to R+L and from start of August to mid September, but I'm flexible on both those I guess.

Also, don't you dare even think of quoting this post and bolding the ones you like.

[Dead throne]

That's a lot of festivals lol....

[jump]

That's a lot of festivals lol....

[Gucci Piggy]

We should all go to Bang Face Weekender.

[dentalplan]

I'm at Laundry Day that weekend.

[Gucci Piggy]

But Jump's list says they don't clash

[dentalplan]

Not the festival

[mrtourette]

Thanks. Didn't even copy most of it...

This is a usual thing, but mrtourette does it. I am probably stepping on his toes here.

[evilduck]

Maybe Placebo will finally make a return this year then?

[dentalplan]

Maybe Placebo will finally make a return this year then?

[Muppetmark]

the bloody beetroots, one can pray....

[justanothername]

I should have put an asterisk that they did the same thing in 2012 and were missing from the R+L lineup. If they're not there this year I would see it as closure.

[jump]

But I want Placebo...

[kemosabe]

Brilliant

Great idea DP

[justanothername]

Two things.

1. I just want to bump this thread back up

2. When you find something and add it dentalplan could you please just post that you have in here so we know when you find something

[Matt42]

Yes this needs to be pinned

[kaosmark2]

Neil doesn't pin threads. I actually agree with the policy.

[dentalplan]

Me too. I update it once or twice a week so if I announce that I've updated it then it should stay near the top.

[Matt42]

I'm actually intrigued at how little has been announced for august festivals, what headliners are doing the rounds that we don't know about...

Then again it could just be "Queens Of the Stone Age, Blink, Paramore, OutKast" overkill. It definitely looks like OutKast are doing later summer EU tests, which probably puts them in the frame for reading/bestival.

[justanothername]

Have I actually come up with a good idea? Well......that's new
