Might as well start it although I have no idea who is releasing records next year

 

Realistic 

The National - be absolute perfect for it 

Nick Cave 

Hiss Golden Messenger - know he wants to play it 

Matthew E White 

Steve Gunn - new LP out next year 

Ryan Adams 

Band Of Horses 

Wilco - the ultimate headliner in my eyes

Phil Cook

Rilo Kiley 

Portishead 

 

 

Dreams

Tom Waits (isn't it Simon's dream)

Bruce Springsteen (they almost booked him acoustically according to Uncut)

The act I would most like to see next year is Jim O'Rourke. It seems extremely unlikely given that he lives in Japan and hardly ever tours, but I know Simon is a fan...

 

Richmond Fontaine have a new album coming out as well, so it would be a very welcome return for them.

 

Other shouts:

 

Viet Cong

The Mountain Goats

Algiers

Dick Diver

Dengue Fever

Mbongwana Star

Field Music

Shugo Tokumaru

Ryan Bingham

Clinic

Timber Timbre

Gillian & Dave

The National

Decemberists

Blitzen Trapper (couldn't fit into the (small) Tipi when they played in '09 - always been a big regret)

The Sadies

Groanbox

Slayer

Elliot Brood

Caribou

Phantom Band

And a residency for Loftgroover in the Silent Disco

 

 

I realise some of these are unlikely - they won't get Gillian & Dave.

He is curating ATP in April. He is surely to big to play the comedy stage, it would be pandemonium.

 

I wonder if he will be given a stage to curate on one day, maybe with The Fall headlining?

 

So he has!!! How the hell does that happens? I always assume the comedy is a little of a afterthought, booked much later......

    • Bit of a rogue one but when Nightwish went on their hiatus a few years ago they didn't rule out doing shows for their 30th anniversary which is next year    Would be a perfect sub for someone like Deftones or even System 
    • With 20 euro discount if booked via Revolut too.
    • Yeah, surprisingly no increase from this year
    • its diabolical already 😞 .... The refs should have walked out in solidarity 
    • The main problem with these is that noone really predicts the shocks that happen in the early knockouts or quarters, so it inevitably gets to like what I put in the semis (France v Spain and Eng vs Arg). You always end up with 4/6 of the top sides reaching the semis, and this is with me 'predicting' Swiss to beat Portugal.   I think we will see a shock result against a top 5-6 team of an African/Asian side knocking a favourite out, and I can see one of the big guns resting heavily for a 3rd group game and ending up 2nd place in their group, which would throw these whole brackets out of whack.   I think the main interesting thing from the brackets, is that if you're only caring about 'likely' group winners, you have France/Spain/Germany/Belgium/Netherlands (who I'm not convinced top group F, that group seems v exciting to me), all on one side of the bracket. Albeit the other side is England/Brazil/Arg/Portugal, but the European giants do seem weighted towards one half.   'best 3rd place' is very hard to call, I suspect there might be 1 or 2 who get 6 points (tied with 2nd) but are there on goal difference/head to head, while others could be on 3 or even 2 points. I also don't actually know if a bunch of these middle-Eastern teams who I've predicted to finish bottom are that bad. I think the ConCaCaf lot who've qualified partially by virtue of the 3 strongest teams all being hosts probably are 0-1 point teams mostly, but I wonder if there's some near-Asian teams I'm underestimating.   I'm honestly really excited though.
