T in the Park 2016

[Toca's Miracle]

Quite gutted that Tame Impala never got announced.

Chase & Status really need to be in darkness. If they are put outside in daylight again the folk organising should be shot.

Either that or headlining Tuts?

Possibly, I was expecting them to fall down the lineups this year a bit but maybe not that low. They'd pull a bigger crowd than LCD.

No they don't, they played second from the top on main stage at balado in the daylight and it was manic 

[Alan_C]

Major Lazer are confirmed as subbing R1 by Geoff Ellis, and you would think Faithless would sub main. Seems strange.

[Lor1]

Chase and status playing on the Sunday hopefully headlining tuts

[Alan_C]

NEW ORDER KING TUTS.

You kidding? 100x better in a tent or in darkness. Compared to 2011 it was powder puff on the Main Stage & also at the 02 a number of years ago.

CONFIRMED?!

[harryomatic]

2011 Chase & Status in Tuts was incredible.
2012 Chase & Status on Main Stage was crap.

It's obviously better in darkness but it isn't essential

No. But the same person who said LCD and RHCP a month ago has said his source has hinted at New Order.

[Alan_C]

If it does end up being New Order, and Major Lazor are subbing LCD, then this means either Faithless or C&S are 3rd up on the main, or subbing Tuts. Seems ridiculous, but Geoff Ellis does make some mental decisions.

[Zooropa]

If New Order end up headlining King Tuts I'll be disappointed considering many of The Roses crowd would probably be drawn more towards RHCP.

You really believe that? I reckon 99% of big Stone Roses fans will be more drawn to New Order. There's no connection whatsoever with Roses and RHCP.

[DomDom1984]

They got my attention with Slaves. Was a reasonable lineup for me before that. 

[Zooropa]

Anyone know what Travis setlists are like nowadays? Do they play anything from the first album anymore? And between RHCP and New Order I would very much imagine the Roses crowd will be quite fragmented.

[DomDom1984]

Of course they do. It's their biggest album.

[DomDom1984]

I'm an idiot. Memory failed me there.

They might with a longer set.

Well the Sunday KT headliner was 'to be announced' so I don't really see any other way. Faithless third down is a possibility but I can't see it. Whopping crowd if they do King Tuts though, especially considering the acts they're up against.

I ask because in 2013 there was no U16 Girls, All I Want To Do Is Rock etc.

[Stu16]

Is there still more acts to be announced? It seems to be missing a big name act...

I'd assume they'll get 90 minutes so I reckon you'll at the very least get a token track from it. Nothing in the hour they did last time though.

Hes a muppet,do they even think things out?

Ideal world swap faithless with the 1975
