West Holts seems like the best fit, but for discussion purposes how's about headlining John Peel? MGMT headlined in 2014 so wouldn't rule it out. 

WH tends to have the more electronic headliners of the two stages (Disclosure, Flying Lotus, Underworld) most of the time, but i think they could probably do JP as well. obviously WH would be the preferred choice though and is where i think they'll end up when/if they're booked

Yep couldn't rule out JP after Norman Cook and M83 this year, just think WH is more suited

Oh I hope so too, haven't seen a WH headliner the last two years after finishing there the previous two years to those. Great stage to close with

Yeah agreed - tbh I don't really care where they play, I'll almost certainly be there!

As long as they're on I'll be happy.WH ia probably my favourite stage anyway so that would be cool. Have to imagine they'll be in the running after a new album and tour. Seemed like things are still a little way off for them yet anyway.

Justice? Other Stage I would think.

No one cares about them these days, so can't see them being high up.

I personally think they'd draw a decent crowd anyway, even before the release of their new album. If that hits the mark, then they will certainly be a decent draw. If they play, wouldn't expect them anywhere other than a headline slot if on WH or JP.

Enjoy Farr Fest @OBface I advise make it over to the Subclub take over, great line up

[FuzzyDunlop]

The Warehouse project announce their line ups next week. I haven't been for a few years.

I signed up as you get first dibs on tickets for 24 hours apparently.

I just have a feeling they'll pull something out of the bag I want to see... Cirez D. Nothing more than a hunch, but he hasn't played up here other than Creamfields in years.

[Mezhyp1]

I've also registered, the chances are there will definitely be a few nights of interest, but whether il commit to going or not I'm unsure 

It's far from the best venue in the world despite all the hype 

[Mezhyp1]

I think WHP start announcing tomorrow*** just from various things I've seen on Twitter

Pre-sale Thursday 

General sale Friday

WHP lineups will be announced Weds, pre-sale on Thurs, general sale Fri.

Last year loads of the nights sold out at pre-sale, so unless you're registered don't hold your breath. Can only see it getting harder to get tickets.

[FuzzyDunlop]

I only signed up on the off chance of something good.

Is it 2 per customer in the pre sale?

I seem to remember it being 2 per pre-sale, but I might be wrong.

[FuzzyDunlop]

November 12 is Drumcode. Just had a band is in town notification

[big__phil]

Hopefully they get some more decent hip-hop. Last year they had RJT and Skepta on the same night.

[FuzzyDunlop]

I'm only signed up in case Prydz or Green Velvet play. Saw them both together one year there.

Also in case DJ Jazzy Jeff makes a reappearance

[Mezhyp1]

I signed up out of curiosity more than anything, just incase there's something seriously good. I shall inform if I'm using it or not so it can go to good use if I'm not

Store Street probably isn't good enough a venue to justify the trip down from Glasgow unless it's for something very very good

Yeah I agree about the venue. Given a choice between Store Street and Victoria Warehouse I much preferred the Warehouse, even with the awful one way system!

[FuzzyDunlop]

Never been to Vic Warehouse.

Boddingtons Brewery was a better venue than Store Street.

I never went to that one. How many rooms did it have? Did they over-sell that one as well?

[jonodillieono]

I much prefer vic warehouse as well. Fuck those people that say it's "too big", at least there's room to bloody dance in there

[FuzzyDunlop]

Boddingtons was 2 rooms for the one we went to (Soulwax) but some nights were only one. It was rammed yeah.

The police were everywhere too. It was right next to strangeways prison and for some reason the police were unhappy.

EDIT - 10 YEARS AGO!!

Victoria warehouse was horrible and store street, whilst more intimate is just as bad, both are incredibly oversold. The Bicep and New Order nights last year were pretty unpleasant at times - partly because store street can't cope when there's one big artist everyone wants to see.

 

Not entirely sure I'll bother to go this year, unless there is a truly stellar lineup. Most of the lineups tend to be very similar year on year.

I was about to say, I don't really forecast there being anything massive to draw me there. There might be a big JESuS show or Prydz or something 

The line ups are always good, there's no doubt about that. But as the zeros says, very sameish
