BST Hyde Park 2015

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Jamie T perhaps? He's a big Albarn fan.

Wouldn't be surprised to see the Vaccines on the line up either.

[johnl]

Lol I don't see Suede and Blur on the same bill. There's a bit of history there!

Jamie T is a possibility and would be great, I could also see someone like The Wombats on the bill (less sure that's great!)

[DomDom1984]

What do we mean by history? Ancient history?

This did cross my mind btw, but I was sure something happened so long ago that the water would surely be under the bridge by now.

[johnl]

Damon nicked Brett's girlfriend (allegedly) Justine Frischmann who went on to be in Elastica. Perhaps get them as well and make it a happy threesome.....

[the wonderwhy]

Blur supports; Metronomy, The Horrors, Drenge, Jupiter & Okwess International, Roots Manuva, Kitty Daisy & Lewis, Teleman, Iris Gold, Fufana and Sugarmen

Not overly impressed with that line up

[Tuna]

Nah, hardly warrants 80 quid in my opinion

[5co77ie]

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

There are still 'special guests' to be announced. I'd expect a biggish act for that price.

I actually really like it...but have to agree its not 80 quids worth of line up.

Would be tempted if I see cheap tickets near the time though.

[Gucci Piggy]

The Strokes have a London announcement at 9am tomorrow. Are there any BST dates remaining?

[the wonderwhy]

In theory, Friday 19th and Sunday 28th.

EDIT: Nah that's stupid I'm deleting it

[johnl]

Maybe the other day of Calling Festival

[guitarbhoy1888]

if this strokes gig is indeed a big london gig and not an intimate one, whats the chances of it being the 19th ?

i was more expecting calling tbh but would prefer it be the 19th.

[the wonderwhy]

Legit or?

Strokes 18 June, supported by beck and future Islands

[dentalplan]

Also Temples, Public Service Broadcasting, Wytches, Gengahr, Hinds, Yak, Kieran Leonard. Cool lineup if you like indie rock then.

Can't see any word on prices yet so somebody keep us posted please!

£66 according to Ticketmaster.

[Diamond Solitaire]

Songkick app says £65 plus postage. Assume that's for general admission tickets

Love The Strokes but don't know much about the support acts other than Future Islands and PSB. Where's best to start with Beck? Any of the other bands worth listening to?

Odelay is where it's at.

Wytches and Temples have one album each so you could check them out fairly easily. Temples had a song in an advert recently so might be recognisable, Wytches are a bit heavier and creepier. Think the others are still in the process of doing a debut album.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Decent line up, but way over priced... I'll hang on until the inevitable price drop/two for one deals come through.

[cdm22]

Beck, Temples, PBS and The Wytches will be good, not enough to buy a ticket for The Strokes though. Shame they are not supporting Blur instead.

[guitarbhoy1888]

Does anyone think that Friday is gonna have someone on?

Seems peculiar that it's Thursday and not Friday they're playing

Cheers for the advice. Will get them all on Spotify this afternoon
