scatteredscreens Posted December 11, 2018 Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) I still think Tame Impala will be at this. Feel like they're going to make a UK appearance on the festival dates they've been scheduled and this seems like the perfect place for them. Yes they headlined Citadel last year but I don't think it matters that much Edited December 11, 2018 by James96 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were to announce an outdoor show in London it's hard to imagine them playing anywhere else. Or alternatively, perhaps that points to a need to change so as to freshen things up!

kingbadger Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Playing a whole album in full as a 'special' show just doesn't sound like a Damon thing at all. I imagine if they're going to make themselves available for anything specific it's going to be Glastonbury 2020. Everyone seems to be finishing their own projects up before then, wouldn't be surprised if they're one of the bands who have approached the Eavii about headlining.

Chaarlie Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Whats the best way to go with buying tickets, will there be any change coming up to the event of prices? the multi-day offer seems to be saving me a massive £2 off of the £70 ticket, bit stupid to even have really.

Waiting until nearer the time when the tickets inevitably don't sell out and picking them up for cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my tactic. Usually on twickets. When it was still field day and citadel I picked up tickets for £30 every time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Martini Police Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I can't remember where we got to on the likelihood of them playing this, but the Strokes are now confirmed to be about next summer. Playing BBK Bilbao in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Because July 11-13 is quite a long time after APE and they are from the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Weekend before Latitude as well. That would definitely rule them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 It’s definitely advantage Latitude but they can fly in and out as they please so not conclusive. Don’t see how they would fit at Glastonbury and wouldn’t get paid enough either so this is at least more likely than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Martini Police Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Any reason why they wouldn't do BST? Surely still big enough to headline and the timing should work. Agree Latitude seems most likely though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2015, Strokes did play Primavera on 30th May and their next show was BST on 18th June and they had no more shows after that till Sep 27th in US. So I guess timing isn't too much of an issue? I'm away from July 17th so I am praying they play APE instead of latitude! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigger123 Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I reckon the strokes are gonna play lovebox about the right size fest for them to headline, will throw the money at them and around the same time as the BBK dates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R Shah Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 We pretty sure the strokes will do a fest or could they possibly do their own show at a park/stadium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
