BST Hyde Park 2015

[justanothername]

Coachella is in the US and is completely different. Just because an act is big there doesn't mean that they're big here. Also that McBusted thing is stupid. They were massive when got together and had a massive following from the start.

[foolee]

You can't compare someone like jack white who couldn't sell out 3 UK arenas to an act that sold out about 37 UK arenas last year, it's fair to say Mcbusted had more demand, The White Stripes wouldn't even have that much demand.

[calumhandy1]

If he gets a decent support its a possibility everyone calm down just a suggestion!

[dentalplan]

Okay but it's still two months after the last gig of his tour. If he was gonna be doing Hyde Park, he'd probably be doing other European festivals to make the trip worthwhile. As soon as the tour finishes he'll probably be working to get this Dead Weather album out.

is there a friday headliner expected between strokes and blur ?

[LondonTom]

Jack White could do it, with the right support his about as big as the Strokes, just less "rare" I suppose.

He won't though as said just because his tour has finished already.

No I don't think so - there's just the Sunday - family day line-up to come I think

[TheSilence]

Last Year:
Arcade Fire
Black Sabbath
Libertines
Mcbusted
Neil Young

Tom Jones

Tim Minchin Comedy thing

This Year:
The Who

Blur

Kylie

Taylor Swift

The Strokes

So yeah, looks like just a comedy thing and a family thing left.

[DomDom1984]

Can't agree that Jack White could do it, even with good support, but I don't think it's a ludicrous suggestion.

The "if McBusted can do it, anyone can!" comment was definitely really dumb though.

[Damsonz]

Offer now available for the who, blur and the strokes. Any 2 for 99 quid

Meh. I'd have taken that for The Who with the disco day. Not fussed about Kylie, but Grace Jones and Chic would be good.

[TheSilence]

If you've already bought a GA ticket apparently you can refund and do the offer as well. That's generous.

Any idea how to do this? Can't find it on the website.

[dentalplan]

Is anyone selling Blur tickets? after 3 hopefully below fv!

[Tr234]

Who are the special guests on the Blur poster rumoured to be?

[atomised]

I was under the impression that when the details were released it billed metronomy as special guests

[kingcrawler]

Who are the special guests on the Blur poster rumoured to be?

I'd have thought it just means special guests in general like the other posters

[Damsonz]

Will do. Thanks

[Astroman]

Being able to hold anormal none shouting conversation during Motorhead summed it up for me.

Will never go again. Utter garbage.

I haven't been to a Hyde Park gig but I've seen many reports like this.

I'd love to see The Strokes again,I'll never waste money going to Hyde Park.A warm-up show at Leeds Brudenell or Holmfirth Picturedrome would be perfect...
