2017 Wish Lists

[CaledonianGonzo]

A difficult time for Blotzer, as the rest of the Ratt lads reunite without him

http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/ratt-reunites-without-bobby-blotzer-at-birthday-party/

Blotzer, left alone like a Ratt in a kitchen with Astro coming after him with a rolling pin.

[Gnomicide]

Poor Booby.

Give me The Avalanches to headline The Park on Saturday night and Flaming Lips to headline JPT on Sunday and I couldn't care less about much else, them together with Radiohead would be almost a dream line up. 

In addition 2017 will be my 3rd Glastonbury, the last 2 times I've caught Biggles as the first act at the festival, so timing my arrival for them would be quite fitting.

I saw Peaches on Friday night in Liverpool, she was awesome, I can't help but think she would go down a treat in Shangri la, he she ever played before? I wonder what the chances of her playing this year are?

I just looked it up, and she played in 2009, in the 'West Dance Tent'.

 

[Little Andy]

Any chance of Damien Rice do we think?

I think that was when her last album was out 

 

she is touring the new one now so is due... oh Glastonbury gods I add you to my wish list

[Bort]

I want to come back next year. Radiohead? Can't miss that. 

Warpaint (multiple sets again, please)

Emmy the Great (ditto)

The Avalanches 

Phil Collins

Josefin Ohrn + the Liberation (never ever tour the US)

Esben and the Witch (ditto)

R.E.M. (rumored for other festivals, but I can't imagine this is actually happening next year, but if it does...)

St. Vincent (will the new album be ready by then?)

Jarvis Cocker doing something (what's he up to nowadays?)

Iggy Pop (last tour, apparently)

Mitski

Blood Orange

Chelsea Wolfe

@Bort, I saw Jarvis at a Spiritualized gig the other day. Perhaps I should have asked him instead of giving a coy wave then looking down at my shoes, whilst waiting for my mate to have a piss.

Yeah, it was really special. 

[5co77ie]

I'd love this lot to come and celebrate Mr All(i)ens passing

 

[Woffy]

Names being touted all over the Forum at the moment. 

FWIW here's my (semi-realistic) wish list thus far:

Grandaddy

Pixies

Gaga

Bon Ivor (for the missus)

Justice

The XX

D-Rozzle

Probably forgotten loads.

 

[siweltrebor]

Listening to radio one tonight makes me really fancy some good dance high up on one of the biggest stages, would be good to have a good outdoor rave.

[SwedgeAntilles]

I think Neil has put the dampeners on Pixies in their thread unfortunately. 

My updated wish list;

The xx. Justice. Avalanches. Angel Olsen. Frank Ocean. Bon Iver. First Aid Kit. Maximo Park. Car Seat Headrest. Lemon Twigs. 

[siweltrebor]

Chances of John Legend? could do with someone being booked for Glastonbury to keep the misses happy.

Well Gents, you'll be pleased to know that Bobby and the boys was one of the most entertaining things of the weekend. It was a total car crash from beginning to end. The audience thinned out quicker than Kanye at the Pyramid, the hired vocalist tried to get everyone to wave their mobiles in the air, maybe about 15 people bothered. The Blotz had an American flag above his drum kit with a fan blowing it for full dramatic effect but it just kept getting tangled up. Some poor roadie had the job of untangling it every now and then.

The highlight though was Bobby's big moment. The rest of the band cleared the stage as he climbed down from his massive drum kit and strode forward.... "Do you guys remember me?" Near silence. When he repeated the question a few more cheered, more out if embarrassment than anything else. I've heard more enthusiasm for a wet fart. He muttered something and stormed off back to his drums.

They soldiered on until the allotted time was up and Bobby was gone before the symbols stopped shaking.

Tremendous. 

I legit burst out laughing almost every day imagining this. The guy needs to be the focus of a documentary.

It's not too late to add this to your Christmas list

Is your search history 90% Blotzer?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Everything I eat is drenched with his special #BlotzSauce

[dentalplan]

I imagine he'll be spelling Ratt with the one 't' more often after today's front page news.

No Blotzer, No Ratt!

[Mezhyp1]

Off the back of Coachella and Gov Ball 

 

Chance The Rapper,  Childish Gambino and Lorde please please and please let me 

[SwedgeAntilles]

Given the festival line ups are coming thick and fast I think it's time for an updated (realistic) wish list;

(C) Radiohead

(TBC) Angel Olson. The xx. The Avalanches.

(SR) The Coral. 

(R) Frank Ocean. Justice. The Flaming Lips. 

(N/A) AIR. Bon Iver. The National. First Aid Kit. Car Seat Headrest. Royal Blood. The Lemon Twigs. The Prodigy. Honeyblood. Jesus & Mary Chain. Teenage Fanclub. HAIM.

Bit of a top 20. Feeling positive about the majority.
