They play a mashup of old songs: The Comedown / (I Used to Make Out With) Medusa / Diamonds Aren't Forever / Re: They Have No Reflections but yeah thats it otherwise, different style now really and I think he struggles to sing the old stuff now they've cut back on the Ketamin...

On the contrary, he can sing that older material way better than he can actually sing.

I thought my 2nd post made it a little more obvious who it may be... 

It's not Prodigy but it's band that has been mentioned.

I'm sorry but no friggin chance it's Blur. Don't see what the point is of spreading false rumours.

[R Shah]

Reckon while she sleeps are defo in that slot next idles. Are we thinking it'll defo be Architects, or could You Me At Six perhaps sub? They're playing shows the weekend before in Newcastle and Manchester. 

Also I would love Royal Blood's first UK headliner to also be at APE. Doubt it will happen this year now tho, perhaps 2020

[Andre91]

It’ll be Architects and WSS.

Could Stereolab be the reunion headliner that was mentioned the other day?

No, as they're nowhere near a headliner, and I am pretty sure that info has been debunked anyway. Now we're in a very new state of not having any strong indication for the next headliner.

[fingers_mark]

Tame Impala for Saturday June 1? Headlining Primavera on the Friday.

Ah, would be cool if they show up though.

Would be kinda odd having them headline another London festival after already doing Citadel this year

I thought strokes for June 1 but if that's been debunked I'd put money on tame impala.

[R Shah]

BST Hyde Park seem to be recycling acts from previous years for the first time this year, perhaps the strokes could play there instead of APE?

I’m a massive Suede fan and see they’re at Primavera. Dog Man Star released in 1994 but surely they are not big enough to headline this these days. Could they co-headline with Tame Impala?

They'd make more sense as a sub tbh

[home to you]

Tame Impala seems like a goer to me. I don't think the Citadel booking affects this tbh. 

[the wonderwhy]

Yeah I think we're looking at Foals for weekend 1 and Tame Impala for weekend 2 now. 

[dentalplan]

Tame Impala will likely pop up at BKS on 1st/2nd June so maybe they're more likely for weekend 1? Not that it changes things so much.

edit: oh and Pond are on the Primavera lineup the same day so that's some undertaking.

Yeah that's a fair shout actually. Still think they're the most likely two atm either way.

Why do you say that? 

[kingcrawler]

Interpol are doing Primavera on the Thursday and Best Kept Secret on the Sunday of the same weekend, so they're probably a good shout for the Saturday sub. 

[Andre91]

I’ve just booked a hotel for the BMTH date. Buzzing. 

Jordan Fish has said that there will be three stages on that day so that’s a lot of bands playing.

Oh so that's our first confirmation of how many stages there'll be in 2019, I think. Guessing it means they're chucking the X Stage, by the looks of the acts that they currently have.

@Andre91 there are a couple of smaller stages too - the Firestone Stage (basically a bandstand) and a Jagerhaus stage too so even more, potentially.

[roughbloke]

Email from AXS said this is BMTH's only UK show of 2019...

Jordan Fish on Twitter replied to a comment saying "they may play a few more"....

For £65 it’s looking like a steal already and that’s before Architects, While She Sleeps and whoever else gets added.

 

[SCG95]

So the two Saturday's still yet to be announced. Reckon we'll get them by the end of this year?

Reminds me of the QOTSA Finsbury park lineup last year - brilliant lineup curated by the band with outstanding variety.

[the wonderwhy]

Ditching the X Stage seemed inevitable, but that's a good decision. Wonder if they'll replace it with anything like another branded stage/something like Despacio or if they'll just leave it. Was pretty tucked out of the way.
