JGP Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Stromae self confirmed a while back but does anyone have any idea of where and when he'd play? I'm thinking low on the Other or possibly mid way up JP, I'd have thought the atmosphere would be better in a tent for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking low on the Other or possibly mid way up JP, I'd have thought the atmosphere would be better in a tent for him. Probably high up on one of the dance stages. I can't see him troubling the main ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, great spot. Only thing is, that gig is on the Saturday, and they're in Holland for Down the Rabbit Hole on the Sunday (according to the band's website), so hard to see how it could be a warm up?

I.e. the promoter got it wrong and they're not playing Glasto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I think Brighton is awesome I doubt Polica are going to go from mainland to europe to england to mainland europe just for a gig here. It's likely they had a day free after Glastonbury and thought they might as well play another show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memory Man Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Well it's 4 people, maybe they'll send 2 over whilst the other two stay in England? yeah thats what happens, HMD usually play in 2's and there are 4 of them. so for example severino and luke howard will go glastonbury and jim stanton and James Hillard will go elsewhere, or a combination of.

stuartbert two hats Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Jonny Dub has announced he's TBC. Not sure if that's really a confirmation or not.Well, he's also TBC for ParkLife and they have him on their web-site. I'd say Jonny's TBC is as close to being confirmed as Neil's (I.e. rather close indeed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got asked about festivals: 'yeah we're doing all of them, even the ones were not billed on yet" Sounds like they'll be there. They're good fun live and their first two albums were okay. Some tracks on later albums okay too. One i'll see if nothing else is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly_eds Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Way it's going they could be Saturday headliners. Ha, just checked their dates after you said that. They're playing Doncaster racecourse that night. In all seriousness though, thoughts on where they'd play? Not really sure of their popularity. Subbed QOTSA other stage in 2011. New album just released. Mid-late afternoon slot on Pyramid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggins Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm not sure they even sold out Gorilla in Manchester recently, I think they're an Academy band just about. Mid other sounds about right but cos they've got a few big songs maybe a bit higher up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memory Man Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 they're kind of in the same boat as the likes of maximo park, falling popularity means where they would want to play (well... what their agent would demand) is unlikely to be available to them so they may not actually appear as a compromise may not be able to be struck. see the hives playing super early last year. many bands / agents of acts like that would probably have not accepted that booking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
