Where the hell did all this talk about celine  Dion come from?

Been announced for BST today but it's her only UK show.

 

Still though it makes me feel old that people don't know who she is. I may not have liked her music but still knew who she was and that she won an Oscar

Appeared like an iceberg in the dead of night

Wouldn't want Sheryl Crow playing the opening of The Other, the atmospheres never up to much that early. Mid afternoon Pyramid or Acoustic headliner would make me happy.

Just been looking and I first saw her at Manchester Academy in 1996!

Her last Pyramid appearance is on YouTube. Either the edited Tv version...

 

Or the whole show that some daft sod filmed through a camcorder...

Not sure if already mentioned, but Fat White Family back with a belter:

they’ll be there this summer. 

One of my tunes of the year so far. Never really listened to em before but get em on.

They can have Dohertyesque reliability issues I believe but on their game they are awesome.

I’m surprised as to the relatively small Manchester venue she’s playing. Would for sure be up for seeing her at the festival

GOML is way older than me.

Nah he's like 29 now. Fair on the second sentence, though, important to get that down in writing.

What have I done now?

Absolute Radio have got a ‘huge live music announcement’ tomorrow morning at 8am.

More than likely a middle of the road guitar band and they usually cover IOW so could be related to that but might be worth looking out for. 

[Brave Sir Robin]

Michael Franti was on Radio 6 the other night, said he’s playing some UK festivals this summer.

Yeah it’ll almost certainly be the IOW announcement.

[Gucci Piggy]

Do IOW not usually announce their announcements? Surely more likely to be a tour/big gig if the festival themselves say nowt before tomorrow morning?

Excellent news, perfect West Holts on a sunny evening act. Unless he's reviving Beatnigs in which case a tiny dark box late at night would be ideal.

Mr Blobby’s playing??

It’s a bold new direction I’ll give them that, and probably still better than the Stereophonics.

[sisco]

[Hugh Jass]

Do James play there every year???

I’ve seen worse, but it’s not great.

Level of headliners has massively dropped.  Foals really could and should of headlined it

[mcshed]

Someone is going to get in trouble when they realise they haven't booked any actual headliners.

The reaction over on the IOW board where folks were hoping for the Who and Arctic Monkeys should be fun. Think I’ll wait until I get into the office before sitting down with a coffee to enjoy the meltdown.

"supposedly" one of the better sources said. 

There's a reason why they said that. I don't know what the reason is.
