finn_with_1_n Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 If Bastille are there, then Craig David might headline the BBC Music tent as they seem to be hand-in-hand everywhere they go at the moment. He would go down quite well with the younger audience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, not Bastille it is LCD seem to be gone by Latitude weekend. I think St Vincent is a good shout for a sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are that many festivals in July that I'd expect them to have been announced for a few if they were in the area for Latitude. They're not gonna headline the main stage anyway sadly but maybe one day. Think I'll reinstate Lana Del Rey on my predictions. She didn't include any UK tour dates on her upcoming European tour so maybe that's so she doesn't soak up the demand here. Also I've been thinking Nine Inch Nails - they'd be a massively left field choice but they're established and electronic enough to not be completely out of place, plus they've been announcing gigs in countries where they don't have festivals yet the UK has nothing. British up and comers to round us off. Bastille I suppose. Oh god please not Bastille Great band, just not someone I'd want for Latitude! I'd end up going to get food at that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownboundTrain52 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Snow Patrol have some crackers, no matter what folk say. Some crap too, but then again, most people do. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evannn Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 I had a dream last night, that this year is the brexit edition of latitude. The headliners were Morrissey, Queen and Adam lambert, and “not Sigur Ros” (unspecified who it actually was going to be, some hard working British band for real people I’d imagine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattymooz Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Damn, Justice, Glass Animals, Nick Murphy, Chromeo and Friendly Fires are all at APE. They really are leaving nothing good for Latitude lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suttttttt Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Reckon we might get some cross over with the QOTSA day at Finsbury Park. I know Iggy Pop is a UK exclusive but reckon we could see The Hives and Deap Vally rocking up. Also have Royal Blood been considered for the Friday night 'step up' slot? Think they're pretty viable for it. I'm a bit indifferent to them mind, their second album seemed to be a carbon copy of the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's half of the line up. True but how many bands are there with only 1 original member left or maybe 2 but don’t attract any of the ‘its Only a tribute act’ hate that queen seem to get. Ok it’s not the same as ‘proper’ queen, but having seen them at IOW where they were fantastic, they would be a amazing headliner for latitude.

tomzsz Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 is there any possibility of n.e.r.d subbing the main or headlining 6 music or are they parklife exclusive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think quite unlikely to headline the tent, even less likely to play mainstage. Latitude is slowly booking more hip hop, but I don’t think they’re quite there yet to book a hip hop subheadliner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMWMOfficial Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 How about Empire Of The Sun? Haven't returned to Latitude Festival since 2010, 'Two Vines' was released in 2016, and no dates planned after March. Seems very likely.

That may be the case with the acts this year too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
