Would love to get Melt Yourself Down back for a higher slot on West Holts. They smashed it last time. 

Seconded, although I'll take a low slot to avoid clashes! Their Shabaka Hutchings' Mercury-nominated 'The Comet is Coming' are playing loads of fests and would also be perfect for a West Holts/Glade slot. He's also in Sons of Kemet. In fact I see he already has another band on the go, the Ancestors - get them all along!

Yeah, good point - although they were mega early last time weren't they? Like midday? Would take like 2 or 3pm...

The Horrors festival exclusive at Latitude didn't even last 24 hours.

Maybe the fact that this is pretty much just a glorified all day gig means they can still get away with it?

Slightly naughty giving a dj set a prominent place on the poster.

FOALS in big letters, DJ set in small letters. 

At least they got it the right way round

That happens all the time. Seen loads of Faithless/Chase and Status/Basment Jaxx etc DJ sets in prominent positions, sometimes even headlining stuff

Latitude:

 

Are the Fleet Foxes UK exclusive or is there still a chance to see them at the farm?

Just saying. I bet whoever plays 3rd down on saturday on the Other stage this year will have a top spot in the Latitude lineup 2018. Editors, Manic Street Preachers, The Maccabees and now The 1975. #thereisapatternhere

Should be TDCC from 2013 (Editors were Sunday), but aye that's a nice coincidence.

Glass Animals if any of those then.

coincidence? I'd like to think the organisers of Latitude have a special interest in that one slot.

Also it's a shame about Fleet Foxes

Argh! They are touring the week after Glastonbury, but I might be a bit of quivering wreck by that point. Damn.

How were they? Nice guys?
