TRNSMT Lineup 2019

[DomDom1984]

Might have happened on a five dayer, but no chance with the three nights.

Again, unless one of them is a weaker headliner. If not then GSS at only 35k I'd bet is possible.

Judging by the 10k capacity venue across town that they haven’t sold out, it probably won’t happen.

Special guest to Muse would be the best shot.

What day could muse be on

[Shootenanny!]

Was wondering if they might book Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds for next year. The 'lad rock' Saturday has sold out both years so far with Kasabian and Liam Gallagher, with Noel seeming one of the most obvious acts to fit that category. Only issue is his last album came out in 2017 and wasn't as successful so unless he has a new one ready to go he'll be well out of that album cycle.

I'd be incredibly surprised if he gets asked purely because he's played Scotland at least four times this year (possibly more.) It would be overkill if he came back for TRNSMT, surely?

[kingcrawler]

Yeah no chance of Noel headlining this, Electric Fields not selling out shows that he's maybe overdone it a bit up here on this album. 

[Claire96]

Lana Del Rey's due to release an album in the next few months, would she be TRNSMT's bag? She could be a decent undercard for The 1975.

[kingcrawler]

Yeah that’s a good shout actually. She seemed to sell out most of the Hydro at pretty short notice so there’s obviously demand there. As you say she’d be a good fit before The 1975.

Agree with this. Chat was they only shifted 3000 day tickets for the Friday he was on.

Unless the undercard was unbelievable, I can't see them selling out the day if The Prodigy headlined. Unless I've missed something & there's still demand for them. After 'Invaders Must Die,' I've rarely heard them being mentioned.

Greatest hits tour would sell out.

Totally agree with you though there new stuff is 50/50 for me and I’ve seen them shed loads of times.

Would prefer Blur to be honest that would be a massive coup for trnsmt.

Jesus, if that's the case there's no chance TRNSMT will take a punt on him.

[jj200]

Muse

The courteeners

FFS that would be the end of trnsmt add the wolf tones and Charlie and the boys am sure RS fans would like that.

Rod Stewart may not be suitable for a festival targeted at 16-25 year olds,  but he's still one of the greatest music artists of all time.  Lumping him in with Irish rebel bands because he is a Celtic fan is ridiculous!

Probably sub.

[Claire96]

I'd assume if Bastille played, they'd sub/special guest. I saw them support Muse a few years ago & thought they'd never stick around. Still don't understand the appeal in them.

[Comfy Bean]

The potential Cure talk on the Glastonbury thread`s got me thinking they could play TRNSMT. 

Friday night, long set, late licence like Radiohead couple of years back......

I've been stuck in that thread all day! I'd be all over that, but The Cure haven't played a Scottish date since '92 & I don't think they're going to start now. Apparently, as I read somewhere in this thread, (I think!) they had a shit gig here & said they weren't coming back. Which is a ludicrous reason if true, but they're so selective with dates as it is in the UK.

They said the same about Glastonbury so I'd disregard it even if true.

I remember the first year of TRNSMT that The Cure were an early rumour despite not touring, and then this year the band only chose to do one show for the whole year so it probably wasn't in contention but I can totally see Geoff Ellis going for The Cure, even if it means handing tickets out wholesale.

I'd be delighted if they did it as I've always been tied up with something else every time they come to the UK, but I've already cleared the TRNSMT weekend next year in case it ends up being a belter (still naively keeping my fingers crossed, even after this year!)

[kingcrawler]

I guess touring with The Twilight Sad for a year might have changed their opinions on Scotland  

If Radiohead struggled to sell tickets compared to other days then I don't want to imagine how empty The Cure's day would be. Still find it pretty odd that they haven't played here for so long but as others have said, I could see them being booked.

It’s not because he’s a Celtic fan it’s because he plays Celtic videos shouts out about Celtic and gets Celtic fans up on stage to sing.

Iknow people who loved him but were disgusted at the rebel shite that some of the crowd were singing a couple of years ago and walked out.

There Falkirk fans btw

This is all Glasgow needs a auld arse playing this...

I reckon The 1975 might get one of the spots, sold out the standing in Glasgow very quick and comfortable.
