Nah he's not cancelled those so far, only doing both Primavera's and Forbidden Fruit so maybe the thinking is he'll manage over for a week but no more.

Ovechkin Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 Maggie Rogers, known from a viral video where music students got feedback from pharrell, is touring europe this summer. 06/21/17 Electric Brixton in London and 14/7 at Melt in Germany. Would be a nice addition early at the Park, but to be fair I've only listened to her 2 songs at Spotify, which are great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's doing Werchter and a few others as well I think so yeah she seems pretty likely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they need to hurry up and announce it though. Don't think billing it as a last Manchester gig would do much though. I'm not sure those sort of banners really massively increase sales & most people are aware that they tend to be a bending of the truth now anyway. Not sure where these last Manchester gig thing has come from. The last album was their best in years and I don't see them stopping anytime soon.

It's just been suggested as something they could use to shift tickets- there's no substance to it. 41 minutes ago, shoptildrop said: what New Order announcement?must have missed this... They said they were planning 'a special show' for Manchester this summer in an interview late last year. Guess its possible it didn't get further than the planning stage.

He seemed pretty confident Justin wouldn't be over here in the summer, so that would rule out Glastonbury Potentially was booked as either Foos sub or Other headliner and has been replaced by Kaisers/Justice as per rumours we've heard?

dentalplan Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) Could there be a section opened up on here for unwitting street attacks? Seem to get a few lols around here. Why dilute it with festival chat? Anyway, Bloc Party - probably best known to some because their singer kicked Eddie Argos in the face in a nightclub punch-up - are still around and announced a show at, erm, Dublin Trinity College's annual festival in April. Quite shocked that they didn't bow out after the few UK shows they've just done but they're hanging on in there and could return this year I guess.

I know that Hymns was a bad album and they probably think they could still have a high slot (was last time they played in 2009 as other stage headliner?), but if Bloc Party had an hour in the late afternoon on the other stage, it'd be such a good set, despite the crappy new stuff.

nikkic Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Went to see Bloc Party on Saturday at The Roundhouse. Was a great gig, played 6 off Silent Alarm. Would be a nice Other stage afternoon slot. Much better than Blossoms anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
