I've seen them 3 times and ill look to see them on this tour. Just saying at most festival's saturday day tickets are the easiest to sell because more people have both saturday and sunday off so can travel and recover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klyde Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 Arcade fire are doing the festival circuit and are free that weekend. Good fit for the Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't really fit with the (slight) directional change of the festival, and he'll no doubt return to stadiums next year if he's headlining two UK fests this time.

Surprised if that's just a one off gig, as it hasn't been announced as an exclusive. My guess is they are second or third on the Radiohead day. Pixies would've been fun but they're at Bluedot on the Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame as I couldn't see them going down well on the Saturday although I'd love it if they were the second stage headliner against Kasabian.

From what Ellis said the second stage is based on up and coming bands that would play at king tuts size venue. I'd guess the bands on that stage won't be household names.

Alan_C Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Aye, I'm fairly sure he said the King Tuts is for new bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryomatic Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 It would be nice if there were a few more established names in the tent alongside the up and coming acts - probably nobody Pixies size but maybe folk like Nothinh But Thieves, We Were Promised Jetpacks, Fatherson, Peace and The Twilight Sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess the bands on that stage won't be household names. This is my take on it. The Green`s not that big and I think we will be looking at one stage in a corner near the Glasshouse where the Roses stage was with a small tent ( smaller than the Tut`s tent at T ) in the opposite corner. Was it the Transmission tent at T in the past ? I`d guess something that size with some new acts who will be used to supplement the BBC tv coverage. Probably with a studio ( up a tree ) with some interviews and maybe acoustic action. Hopefully !!!!!! They won`t use any of the space they have on the Green for daft, noisy waltzer type rides Whole site circled by bars and burger stalls to collect our dough and not enough toilets.

Shootenanny! Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 In terms of new bands I'd like to see Sundara Karma, DMA's and Public Access T.V. on the second stage. Think they're all doing some UK festivals this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew McNally Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) I laugh at all you guys thinking about who else will be announced or will be subbing and not, the lineup is out, that's your lot in terms of biggest names i'd say. The same pattern as T every year on here. Disappointment is the end result. Edited February 8, 2017 by Matthew McNally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Salmon123 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) The Vaccines seem to be on the go again, any chance of them playing? Or is that likely to be it for big names?

dentalplan Posted February 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 Hard to predict really - there's no history to go on, as such. There's the theory that a couple of 'special guest' subs could slot in but I don't see The Vaccines being given that much esteem. Completely forgot about it but what happened to Tom Chaplin and the Imagine Dragons? @DomDom1984 Was Mr. Keane talking out of his harris?

MinionDave Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 a wee bit more info on this that is out there... Planning application, only the first page so far but gives times (Fri 12:00 to 00:00, Sat Sun 12:00 to 23:00), this will be the "we can open to the public" times so stage/music curfew 15~30 mins before this. and that there will be a big wheel, yeh (in a very sarcastic way).http://caltoncommunitycouncil.org.uk/events/glasgow-green-3-day-event-7-to-9-july-2017-licence-application/ Also just some general chatter from local MP on thishttp://caltoncommunitycouncil.org.uk/events/tpel-trnsmt-festival-glasgow-green-3-day-event-7-to-9-july-2017-consultation/ ta, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefski Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 For folk bringing up Pixies, they're playing two nights in Kelvingrove Park in August, couple of other names like Brian Wilson and Texas playing other nights too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundgarden45 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'm really looking forward to seeing Radiohead for the first time, but not sure if my friends want to come. I'm nervous to go to a festival on my own! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InSomeRainbows Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 @soundgarden45 Don't be! It's definitely a different experience, but you'll still have a great time. The fact it's not a camping festival will help, too; you can essentially treat the day(s) as a long, outdoor gig. I saw Radiohead in Berlin last year at Lollapalooza, which is a simlar, city-based festival. They are absolutely worth it... Which is why I've booked a lone Friday ticket to TRNSMT, too.

SwedgeAntilles Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 James Blake supporting Radiohead on their Italian date, he'd fit in pretty well as a sub given the current bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cocky19 Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 How many acts are they realistically going to put on the stage each day? Sure in an interview Geoff Ellis stated music would start at 2 on the Friday, though I see it has a later finishing time, and 12 for the Saturday and Sunday. If you take TITP main stage as a rough guide we are talking 8/9 acts per day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 For the Friday I'd say it'll be something like; 14:00 - 14:45 - 1st act TBC 15:05 - 15:50 - 2nd act TBC 16:10 - 16:55 - Rag'n'Bone Man 17:15 - 18:15 - London Grammar 18:35 - 19:35 - Belle & Sebastian 19:55 - 20:55 - 3 act TBC 21:15 - 23:00 - Radiohead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
