First announcement.

[Flaminglippy]

am I just too young/ old?

[PiersMorgansChin]

I reckon the final headliner's gonna be Bombay Bicycle Club...

Both Clean Bandit and Jess Glynne are in the lineup which makes sense cause they did 'Rather Be' together... then Rae Morris, who did 'Luna' with BBC is one of the main artists but she's done barely anything else so it seems a bit weird for her to be high up, so it'd make sense if it was BBC!

Possible, no?

[Rumblestripe]

It's Prince. (But don't tell the Glasto mob)

[Boblad11]

For me I would like to have seen Wild Beasts play this year, Sorry not a great fan of Suede.

If anyone fancies Northern Soul Dance School then I can deffo say he will be playing (cause its my son) and confirmed on the web site. Come along and try it, last year was a great laugh and its always a hit at Kendal, Beatherder and Festival No 6

Now Prince! lets get this thing started.

If I had to be a betting man I'd say the final headliner will be more of a dance act/dj for Friday night. Not sure who's around and affordable that fits the bill !

[Marc Whiffen]

After a bit of research, there are some gems for sure and I see Bonehead from Oasis mk1 is playing! Gotta be worth a gander.

Hi im new to this forum thingy, I've been to KC for the last 3 years and I love it love it love it!! I'd love it even more if they poped Jimmy Cliff into the headliners though

Suede are playing friday night according to their website and frank turners on saturday....so not sure if there will be a dance type headliner....if they were it would need to be someone big.....maybe fatboy slim perhaps?

[yatesy117]

Hopefully the Happy Mondays will have the dance act covered. Still got my fingers and toes crossed for The Flaming Lips!

[Emandjay]

Definitely not the former...nice try though!

I'm not a huge fan (largely because of his politics), but 'Photosynthesis' is a bloody great tune.

If the Mondays had been headlining and he was subbing there probably wouldn't have been so many raised eyebrows...so overall still think its a strong booking.

[Flaminglippy]

I understand what you mean about his politics, but I think this has been misinterpreted by a lot of people. A lot of his views are quite left wing even though he says he doesn't like socialism.

Anyway, best to keep away from politics. I've seen him three times and enjoyed each one. The headliner spot at Beautiful Days in 2012 was probably the best. I think FT is a worthy headliner for a festival the size of Kendal. Mondays should definitely be subbing him.

By the way Lippy, didn't you go to Godiva last year? Happy Mondays and Skabilly Rebels (Roddy Radiation ex Specials) are the first two bands announced. A couple more decent announcements and I might pop over again as it's free.

Happy Mondays headline the dance tent on the Saturday according to Rowetta's Twitter, is that the same day as Suede? Hope so, I won't have to get into them.

Wasn't sure what my 17 year old daughter was going to make of the line up so far as she hasn't grown out of V yet but she is very happy. Looking forward to Clean Bandit, razorlight, Tom Odell, Ella Eyre, Gorgon City, etc.

Me, I'm happy with Frank, Happy Mondays, Dub Pistols, The Heavy, Catfish & Bottlemen. I'm okay with Suade but was never really into them.

[thetime]

Well that's me in.

Never been but been tempted last couple of years, couple of friends go every year and rave about it so going give it a bash.

And lippy raves about it so must be a good one..

Wouldn't read much into lippy enthusiasm,, if they announced the hotpots doing 3 mammoth headline slots fri, sat an sun he'd still be happy to be out the house !

[ramragon]

I hope we don't get the opportunity to find out next yr !

[Marc Whiffen]

Simon and Oscar from OCS playing Bingley, would love for them to be added.
