2017 Wish Lists

[CaledonianGonzo]

Pre-Bottling he wasn't - in fact, given his age he was surprisingly robust.

Can't speak for now, in a Post-Bottled Toots world.

Count me in for this! Forgot he had an album in the pipeline

I saw him in May and he played pretty much all of the songs on the new album and they all sound very good. Down for the outing been around years and is a great song, and I like the new one hes released. That amongst some Libs classic would make great viewing for me one afternoon

[grumpyhack]

Sod the bands for the moment.  My only wish is for a ticket after failing on T Day.

Teenage Fanclub would be good, digging the new album. 

Their gig last month is maybe the favourite time I've ever seen them, and seeing them at the Barras in December as well....but late afternoon at The Park would also be a treat.

[Hugh Jass]

Radiohead and the Roses on the Pyramid with Kraftwerk on WH the other night would be perfect for me.

Other realistic acts I'd love to see over the weekend: Royal Blood, First Aid Kit, BRMC, Lady Gaga, The Kills, and I know I say this every year but The Bluetones.

In the realms of fantasty I'd love to see QOTSA return in time to play. I'd even give up the Roses if they were on the Other against them.

[Andrea Weir]

Pink Floyd, Radiohead and Kula Shaker .

Was it two or three years back that Solange played The Park?

Either way, she made a bit of a damp squib of it.

Yeah it was within the last few years. That's a shame.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Sandcastle Disco is / was a banger, but the rest of it fell fairly flat. 

Not bad, just a bit soporific.

Actually, speaking of The Muppets - and Winslow Leach - would love to see Paul Williams live.

Does he play Fat Sam's Grand Slam?

If he didn't there'd be trouble.

The Rainbow Connection, Rain Days & Mondays, Ain't No Hole in the Washtub.....my man has the jams.

I've seen them a couple times. Played these islands a couple years before their split.

My main claim to fame - when I saw Ween back in the day, Gene decided he really wanted my Bowie Hunky Dory T-shirt, so swapped it for the sweaty shirt he was wearing, which three if them signed and we ended going backstage for a bit.

The best part is, on the reviews of the next two gigs in Melody Maker and NME, he was pictured still wearing my T-shirt!

No claims to fame from me here - but myself and Nallo were at this riot.

Now I'm actually making full use of my Deezer account and listening to way more stuff outside of my usual bubble, I'd expect this list to continue to change.  But for now and in no particular order:

Levellers

Daft Punk

Radiohead

Diana Ross

Dub Pistols (again!)

The Sunshine Underground

The War On Drugs

Depeche Mode

Anteros

Honeyblood

The Allergies

OMD

Chainska Brassika

Andrew WK

Seasick Steve

Flogging Molly

Dropkick Murphys

Deftones

Public Service Broadcasting

And just for a stupidly long shot.....REM

Plus tickets for the eFests faithful who've missed out so far.  I'm talking about you @FloorFiller, @Lucy92, @Babylon sister and @MilkyJoe!  Plus anyone I've missed

 

We'll get there! my wish is to see a new band that I've never heard before and fall in love with their music. I love discovering new things at festivals!

Toots is past it.

No way! Saw him last month and he was in top form.

[EighteenSixty7]

D'Angelo.

[jparx]

Top of my wishlist, as far as non-rumoured acts go, is Weezer. I have no idea what Rivers was on about when he said they were playing Glastonbury and Reading this year, because they clearly didn't, but I hope Weezer make an appearance in 2017. 

Not sure where they would fit really. Headlining John Peel? Sub headlining the Other? Whatever the case, get them to the farm!

[CaledonianGonzo]

It's not like I'm a fan, really, but I reckon they could do very well and be a lot of fun in the Friday afternoon rock slot - if that's a thing.

[CaledonianGonzo]

A few decent pop songs in the Hysteria/Pyromania era, albeit usually with terrible production from Mr Shania Twain.

Good shout on Bob seger, wooderson. 

Calgon, def leppard - wtf???

Even with your eclectic taste that threw me. 

i'm with calgon on this one...

Def Leppard > Bob Seger for me...

i've just never got into Bob Seger...today it sounds like it would be good Trump rally music... i'm sure a lot of rustbelt Trump voters have him as their soundtrack.

Pyromania is a true classic hard rock album...the 'Definitely Maybe' to Hysteria/What's the Story

it's the 'few decent pop songs' that ruined the Leps
