With the National playing in Amsterdam on wednesday and thursday, I think we might see them confirmed on friday. I think chances are high that they will be confirmed up from Friday, but they are reasonably smaller than Radiohead and therfore I expect (or hope) for a first bunch of confirmed artists instead of only one act.

spudling Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 All points east festival in London have The National ,The XX,Lykke li,The war on drugs and Future islands playing between 1st and the 3rd of june so I would think BKS would be booking most if not all of those.

XX would make sense as Jamie headlined it before and may want to repay the favour. Looking like a realistic pool of the National, Nick Cave, XX and Gorillaz so far for headliners with maybe QOTSA and TWOD as outsiders.

visdave34 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Someone on a Dutch forum seems to know that Nick Cave will do Down The Rabbit Hole and not BKS. My guess at the moment would be The National/Gorillaz or LCD/The XX. One of LCD/Gorillaz doing DTRH in that case. I expect QOTSA and TWOD to do Pinkpop.

Also, Stuart Braithwaite and Martin Bulloch of Mogwai both have previous with BKS, having played there with Minor Victories in 2016. And they both seemed to be enjoying themselves then. That has to count for something... I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were they? 2014 is the only BKS I've missed. Tried not to look too hard at the bill that year as I was forced to go to a family party and didn't want to get jealous...

This would be amazing! I have seen only one show of them back in the days and it was one of the best. Fingers crossed for: The National - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - LCD Soundsystem But to be honest, I doubt we will get more than one of these acts and most probably it will be The National, who I'd choose last. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There you go, updated prediction for the Dutch festivals in June: BKS: The National/LCD/The XX Down The Rabbit Hole: Gorillaz/Nick Cave/TWOD Pinkpop: Foos (confirmed)/Bruno Mars (confirmed)/ Pearl Jam That leaves us with QOTSA... If Pearl Jam isn't coming through, I might see them headline Pinkpop. Don't think they would accept a 1hr slot as sub for Foos, would they?

spudling Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Its looking very promising for a great line up this year. I would be very happy with the National,Lcd and the XX as headliners. With a undercard that could bring The war on drugs,Warpaint, lykke li, The oh sees and.Mogwai. Could be fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Think Morrissey should be considered as well- if only to prevent us from nailing down the headliners before they've even started announcing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they stay in Europe that long, LL and PKP are probable. But since they are also booked for Northside I’d say chances are not that high.

the wonderwhy Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Headliners out of The National, LCD, XX, Bjork, Morrissey, possibly Phoenix and TWOD I guess. Hope BKS get YYYs on the undercard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDave Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Fan made poster. Wouldn't have me rushing back tbh. Can definitely see TWOD headlining, but only with two big headliners a la RTJ this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see them all playing (bar The Wombats who I think are in the states) but lower down. Would want YYYs, St Vincent etc. in that sort of position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
