Sorry to disappoint guys but I incorrectly copied my Textedit predictions hence the weird extension. I don't expect all of them to be there. There will be lot of unknown acts I'm sure

[Fareham Grecian]

Josh Tillman was on Lauren Laverne on 6 Music this morning saying he was headlining a U.K. festival which was about to announce its lineup. Fits with EotR...

That would be very underwhelming as far as I'm concerned.

What makes you think Real Estate will be there? They are touring the UK in June so I'm not sure how likely it is that they would come back again in August. Would love to see them both play though.

[Yokel Again]

Announcement wednesday then.

Announced on Facebook - clues to some acts on the EOTR Instagram account coming up over the next few days though.

the fact that they have not played eotr before and they have a new album coming out makes it possible. they have played green man before so put eotr before the green man. could be wrong its only my opinion. i definetly think it could happen.

So after the picture of eyeballs on slide a lot of people have concluded one of the headliners will probably be Pixies

 

Slides-and-up eyeballs , I want you to know!" *pixies lyric* I seriously doubt its The Residents who would've been my natural guess as they dont seem like an EOTR band

Eh is it not "slicing up eyeballs"? Wtf would "slides and up eyeballs" mean?

[dentalplan]

Anyway Pixies are a 'UK festival headline exclusive' at Bluedot so they won't be at EOTR as they'd obviously headline.

FJM is a good start - certainly so if it turns out he swerves Glastonbury for it and this is his first UK date on Pure Comedy.

Interesting to see who else they have but I didn't know Beach House had headlined the Woods Stage before; they're touring around the time and even though they're a good band it'd be a bit of a duff headliner wouldn't it? Same if they bumped Mac up.

I thought they were a 'northern festival exclusive' (this is getting ridiculous now)

Hmm well I did only see it second hand and not research whether it was true (fake news) but I guess both could be true. Inclined to think that their biggest UK tour in decades, a festival headline slot and a support slot at Hyde Park will see them fully stretched out though, as much as it still may be a coup fro EOTR.

Yeah, and they don't have anything booked in the 2 weeks before EOTR, not sure where else they could play in between.

[Chawk]

Maybe EOTR could have them as a Dorset exclusive though.

or a North Dorset exclusive?

[SweepingTheNation]

It's "northern festival exclusive", but I doubt they'd come back to Europe for a single slot six weeks after a long stopover. Latitude would be my guess for their non-northern headliner.
