Premature stage speculation thread

[zero000]

Who's playing what stage then?

Are we going to live the dream of Caribou into Hot Chip on West Holts or be subject to a horrendous clash?

Post you wild speculation (and facts), but mainly wild speculation here.

[Memory Man]

caribou to headline park and clash with HC.

Ryan adams other stage,

Mary J Blige Pyramid

Motorhead the hives and blondie slot other stage

Where are Franz & Sparks gonna play?!!?

No mention of band for todd terje so that one's still massively up in the air. I reckon Sonic.

SFA park headliner

I'd say deadmau5 headline other Friday & chem's saturday

[MrZigster]

The Hives & Blondie were not the same slot.

You're thinking The Hives/Beady Eye (13) or Kaiser Chiefs/Blondie (14).

But was also thinking one of those slots would be great for Motorhead, if unlikely.

[MrZigster]

Ooooh. Hang on...?

I'm wrong ain't I?

It was Beady Eye/The Hives wasn't it.

And The Hives owned Beady Eye.

Totally.

I can't believe I misremebered that.

Sorry.

[Gucci Piggy]

I think Buzzcocks will do that slot, and Motörhead be on Pyramid Foos day.

[MrZigster]

Buzzcocks or Motorhead (how do you do umlauts?) would also be great in that slot.

The Stranglers were just bloody brilliant on that stage a few years ago (though a different (middayish) slot iirc). Something like 14 top ten hits in an hour. A proper festival set.

You can kind of guess my age from this I guess

[bennyboi]

I'd say chronixx would be right up there on west holts too

Yeah i wondered this - hopefully it's just lack of space on the poster? I'm hoping for the glade (because sonicis cr*p)

Loved that set Believe it was 2010 as it was roasting.

[Familiar2billions]

I had a nightmare last night that the Chemicals got confirmed for Sunday night on the Other stage. It has to be Saturday night surely!

[foolee]

Not going but do you think Foo Fighters could do a secret slot somewhere, maybe acoustic set opening other because they do like a secret set. At V they played the second stage under 606 in 2007!

[5co77ie]

thought this was a new stage name - one in the kids field perhaps?

[davefrompompey]

Much as I dont think itd happen I think itd be a good idea to put motorhead on the `almost indoor` john peel stage in the tent....headlining one night id say. Just because that kind of intense high energy rock n roll is not exactly suited to a sparse pyramid field in the midday sunshine......theres a reason the best heavy gigs are always at indoor venues, just creates the right sort of vibe

You have a point... they'd probably be the oldest band ever to play the 'new bands' tent though wouldn't they?

[fatyeti24]

theyd destroy the place though itd be a legendary set, when the sun had gone down, almost inside, crowd packed in tight.......itd be much like a motorhead gig in fact!

they should play the Pyramid to wake up the all-dayers, then another set somewhere in shangri-la late at night.

It was called that because it was a new tent for bands, not a tent for new bands.

Oh my god, my world has been turned upside down!

Premature? Surely that sort of thing is more suited for Avalon
