I somehow have no clue what a Biffy Clyro is. I've seen the name before, but I'm guessing they're just not a big deal in the USA?

I saw them in Chicago this March paying 25 dollars at the House of Blues, we were 300 at best... No I guess they are not a big deal in the States. Yet they set up a great show even with a really small crowd compared to their standard in Europe - but in Belgium I think they would sub headline, so 3rd spot or lower on the Main Stage

i am not sure they would even be on the main stage - i recall the discussion from last year and they were struggling to sell the ancienne belgique show in brussels.

pretty much the same with the killers, who are much lower then on other european countries and would be a disaapointment for the belgium crowd if they are headliners. subs at best.

Two door cinema club announced for finsbury park july 1st. Also the vaccines and marmozets (amongst others). 

and the killers announced at a fest in the us at the end of july, which means they can yet announce more dates (hopefully werchter). We'll see tomorrow... 

i'm going with two door, mgmt, alice in chains, marmozets, jack johnson and biffy for tomorrow's announcement 

Killers announced a German festival Deichbrand same weekend as Paris Lollapalooza too, doubt they’d miss Belgium off the tour when they seem to be everywhere else

This is Biffy Clyro..... :) 

 

Think I might spend my day watching this concert now!

I'd love to see Biffy this year, but I do get the impression they favour the smaller EU festivals as they're more likely to get higher billing.

Never know though, they could add them to the Sunday and just make my scheduling even more impossible!
