smogo Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Rob's said Daft Punk aren't playing. He hasn't tweeted anyone that Radiohead aren't. Edited January 29, 2016 by smogo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just noticed that my equivalent post of this on the official forum seems to have been removed. And the Cure have been added as a Serious Rumour on efests some time in the last few days.

eFestivals Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) announcement is at 10. Unsurprisingly, it's very Bestival, (and the emperor's new clothes are on the bill, as ever ) Edited January 29, 2016 by eFestivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Much stronger start than last year, I'm glad to see Rob has gone back to booking decent bands as well as kitsch & dance/hip hop. It's that overall mix that makes Bestival unique & it was certainly lacking last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Not much going on there that would get me over to the IOW, will hold fire on purchasing until some more of the line up gets released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 They did that slot in 2011 I think, it wasn't too bad, just have to dive up the right hand side of the tent and nip in from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smogo Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Much as it was great Bestival never having repeat headliners until last year, I don't think too many people will be complaining about the Cure, Hot Chip and (last year) the Chemical Brothers.

weston24 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) I assume the final headliner will be more of a novelty act rather than somebody like Kendrick? As long as Ride are on the same time as Major Lazer (makes most sense surely?), then Hot Chip, The Cure and Ride is good for me. Along with Ghostpoet, Animal Collective, Jagwar Ma, Mo and Wolf Alice, it's a good start. Edited January 29, 2016 by weston24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
