Flaminglippy Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Who do we think? Kaisers, Elbow...other?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthonym93 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Would be happy with either of them. The Horrors maybe? Or too small? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaminglippy Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Too small I reckon. Headlined Truck last year and thats a third the size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinc72 Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 The horrors would be a great addition an arguably better than the other two headliners, although thats a personal preference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevd108 Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 May be Elbow as the new album comes out Monday and they probably wouldn't want to make a big announcement before that. Would prefer someone like Belle & Sebastian or Nile Rogers and someone mentioned Chemical Brothers on another link which would the dogs bollox but Elbow would do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the salmon Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Kooks are on the way back, could they be in with a shout? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramragon Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Can't imagine the kooks being big enough to headline after being away for a few years. Possibly support role or 3rd down the card.......then again frank turners headlining so you never know ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisterpsychosis Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Got to be a goodie tho ....bit too much folky stuff for us at the mo. If its going to be the Sunday night headliner,....it needs to be a singalong-hands -in-the-air-smile-on-my-sunburnt-glittery-face-set that closes the show with a chuffing Big Bang!

sloaney007 Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Im expecting to see a big dance act looking at past years. Think the indie headliner has been taken up with Suede. I recon Fat Boy Slim, Chemical Brothers, Chase and Status someone like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamj Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I see Pet Shop Boys announced a tour and Bingley have announced them, possible or not ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramragon Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I'd be happy enough with that, something a bit different and sure to play stuff that everyone knows and can sing along to. Sort of thing you want to end the festival as a Sunday night headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaminglippy Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Sunday?? I'm expecting the last headliner to be a dance/more recent artist for Friday night. This would follow the normal KC pattern. FT is playing Saturday so I expect Suede to be the closing act.

thetime Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 It says 1st August (the Friday) on Suede's website so maybe they're doing away with the dance headliner? Does seem to be shifting slightly away from the dance element (good news in my book!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEatT Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Courteeners? Example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Whiffen Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 The Enemy are announcing something tomorrow, thinking it will be a tour then can see them added sometime next week, Miles Kane on the Sunday too, could be a lad rock day.

ramragon Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Much as I'd love to see the Courteeners at Kendal we've discussed it on here a few times and most agree that it wouldn't attract the crowd that the festival organisers want. Seen them loads of times live and every single time the crowd was going mental which is great at a Courteeners gig, maybes not what they want as a family festival headliner.

eddiepolio Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Example was way better than I thought he would be at rockness when he headlined last year. Would he fit the KC crowd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOCHLAND5 Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 . I would hope that they wouldnt pick a 'softer' headliner just because there might be kids milling about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
