[Zoo Music Girl]

The Thingy is looking fabulous guys

100 Days!! I've been trying to feel a bit more casual about things this year and all like "the lineup will come when it comes" but we're down to double figures tomorrow and excitement is ramping up! I am henceforth on standby to stand by my bed at any given moment.

I thought we were down to double digits now? Is it not 99?

[buddiepaul]

YEP, 99 today.

Like the swallows returning after a long winter and the first blooming of daffodils, the arrival of Spring is traditionally heralded by rumours of a new Stone Roses album.

The Lesser Spotted Stone Roses Third Album

Did anyone else just hear Lauren Lavern on 6 Music say that The Stone Roses are being rumoured as playing a Festival in a field somewhere?

but she said a rumour! Sure she did! and they are already confirmed for TITP! does anyone have a way of rewinding live DAB? or do we have to wait for listen again?

 

[dentalplan]

She is correct. They are being rumoured.

[deadpheasant]

Would they likely be the last IOW headliners?

Yep I definitely heard it. Surely "in a field somewhere" usually equates to Glasto...?

As far as I'm aware it's the only field in the British Isles. 

[Badlands]

She talks a fair bit of gubbins on her show. I heard her mention that Daft Punk were headlining festivals throughout the summer a few weeks back. I think she’d meant LCD, but she didn’t correct herself and I wasted 30 seconds of my life trying to verify this info.

And only has 1 stage.

Stone Roses would be a terrible get. They've been round the houses how many times on this reunion? If they were going to play it would've had to be like 3 years ago, when the prospect of seeing them was still new and exciting

[Diva Sam]

Stone roses is stale bread y'all.

[jparx]

It'd be pretty surprising at this point if the headliner isn't Adele or Radiohead. If they were desperate for the Roses to play I'm sure they would have worked something out a few years ago.

I'd find it hard to get excited by that booking honestly. They've been on a reunion tour forever and they are still milking records that are decades old. If they had good new material it would be a bit more interesting but I still don't think it would terribly exciting. 

Plus, booking New Order against Stone Roses would be nonsense, and since NO appear to be locked in and there's nothing significant linking the Roses, it probably ain't happening.

much as I'd go and see them and enjoy it, I cant help agreeing with this.

that being said, I bloody hope it is them

Even if they don't have any new material, they'd still be a better 'get' than re-booking Coldplay or Muse.

[Wooderson]

Lads who are we kidding, Roses at Glastonbury is unmissable.

[Homer]

As I say every few weeks: update please! Is it still:

 

Muse Vs LCD

Adele Vs New Order

Bring me the Horizon

With Foals subbing one day?

Also, when do we usually get an announcement?

Ta!
