Zacko Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Their 2011 set was just too great, I feel like them playing again would dampen how special it felt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Just been on their website and sadly it's not looking good! Although we're not on the road right now, there are a ton of other bands that would love to get hit in the head with your shoe. Click here to find one! Anyone know if The Bloodhound Gang are planning on being active next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it appears they have ben booked to headline Bestival. In Toronto though, as they have "06-12-13 Toronto, Ontario - TBA" on their tour dates. Don't know what that means for the UK festival, if anything at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made the presumption this summer that Flo would headline Bestival UK as she was headlining Bestival Canada - but it didn't happen. So I don't think you can make the same presumption here for The Cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smogo Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Ah, that would make a lot of sense. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the person who said they're booked for Bestival didn't know that there are multiple Bestivals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 It was 12-13 this year, making the 13th a Monday this year, no? That would suggest they're just doing two dates in Toronto if I've got that right... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smogo Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 (edited) That's a point, this year it was on Fri 12 & Sat 13 June so next year's dates ought to be Fri 10 & Sat 11 June, not 12th & 13th. But the Cure's website definitely says "12th or 13th", and on 10th & 11th they're playing Chicago. Perhaps my initial info was right and they are playing Proper Bestival.

the wonderwhy Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 The other thing is Flo only got about an hour at Bestival Toronto last year - I definitely can't see The Cure settling for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think that Bestival Toronto being Sunday-Monday and them playing the Monday might be more likely than doing five nights on the trot all over North America though. Don't think Bob flies either.

smogo Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Chicago, Toronto and Montreal are very close to each other by that continent's standards. Hardly entails going "all over North America". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drakeyyy Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 The XX, Gorillaz and Kendrick would be the dream! Think LCD soundsystem, Lily Allen and Bloc Party could be in with a shout too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum_96 Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 I think Two Door Cinema Club might be in with a shout this year, subbed in 2012, were supposed to headlined Latitude in 2013 as well. If they're new stuff is a success I could definitely see them headline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 As someone said in a different part of the site, I think TDCC will do a Vaccines and tumble down the line ups when they return, just think a lot of their fans will have moved onto other things - not to mention the fact that they are completely dreadful.

Zacko Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Oh yeah, that'd be really good actually, so many tunes! Just seen Tears for Fears are doing Camp Bestival, that's a really unexpected choice, bodes well for Bestival! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stocky3000 Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Was wishing that the XX would be one of the headliners but Jamie XX now playing solo all the way into August so is looking increasingly unlikely so will just be holding out for Gorillaz and LCD soundsystem now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
