They just played Ice Cream on the radio - Battles to headline? Seems pretty feasible if they get their new album out soon.

I'd be all over that :D

Me too, but I wish Tyondai had stayed in the band. Mirrored just has something extra special about it. Their peformance in 2008 at The Park is still one of the greatest sets of live music I've ever seen.

The jealousy is real.

I honestly don't know what I'd have done with myself if I'd been there that night in '08. Hot Chip into Massive Attack on Other, Battles into CSS on Park, or Futureheads into Biffy on John Peel...my word.

Reckon East India Youth could make the step up to mid-Park? Do agree it might work better in a tent though. William's Green last year was stunning, even at 2.30pm.

I hope he does, I feel like a really dropped a bollock by not watching him perform at all this year, after ample chances.

Headlined the 3rd stage at Green Man this year and was stunning. My number 1 set of a very high quality weekend. That was outside, and it worked incredibly well. Saying that, it was dark, and I guess mid-line-up on The Park would be a very different proposition. I just hope he plays somewhere at Glastonbury next year, as I am desperate to see him again. He was that good.

Could definitely see Run The Jewels either on The Park or West Holts.

reckon they'd be more likely for John Peel myself, a-la Tyler, The Creator and Chance The Rapper. 'Pitchfork rap' if you will (although i suppose Danny Brown was on the Park and that worked superbly). i'd be there either way. new album is incredible

I'm hoping for a bit of Deptford Goth, Max Jury, and maybe that William Oneyeabor thingy

that William Onyeabor thingy is more fun than anything has any right to be.

As ever, apols if mentioned earlier in an increasingly enormous Park thread...

What about Beirut for the Park 2015? New record is pending, iirc, and I reckon having headlined some medium sized festival's main stages, they could comfortably headline The Park.

That would be incredible. They had a very short UK visit this year I think - only did Green Man Festival and a gig in Mancheste if I'm not mistaken. Long overdue a few more UK shows.

I'd like to se Stars back at Glastonbury and the Park seems like the natural place for them given their cult appeal... that said, their new album would work better either after dark or in a tent, and given that they're not all that big, perhaps they'll be in the John Peel again.

I've been suggesting them for Park headliner for a while now. Probably won't happen but can you imagine?

I do remember you putting it on here. Would be incredible. Are you gonna go to one of the April shows? Edited by CHRLY

Oh my, now that would be incredible!

Now, you singularly failed to answer last time, WL - is your user name related to the near-Buckingham Winslow?

Ben

Sorry mate, I don't remember you asking before! It isn't, I'm afraid, it's a Phantom of the Paradise reference. I'd watched it just before setting up this account. It was either 'Winslow Leach' or 'Rex Banner.' I do sometimes wish I'd gone for the latter.

Awww, shame! I crashed my Mum's car just outside Winslow when I was 17. Mini Metro. She was in France. Awkward...

Anyway, would still bloody love it if GY!BE played next year. I honestly think I could happily just let the rest of the festival pass without me worrying about many/any other must sees, if that happened. Special, would be an understatement.

I may have to. Don't really have the money, but that's no excuse!

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
