which might be great news

That Splendour line up has made things interesting!

Still wouldn’t expect Foals. Can’t see them going from Europe to Aus without a small break. They are really smashing the touring this year though! I could be completely wrong in my thinking. I hope I am anyway ?. Would love them there

Weren’t there rumours of Childish Gambino knocking about? But then he cancelled? If they were true then why we he still go ahead with Australian dates a week after? Rumours could have been a load of nonsense of course.

Got to be between him and Tame Impala surely for the final headliner. No idea why Tame Impala couldn’t have been announced so far though. Unless they’ve had to go in for them in the past month or two because they’ve been struggling for names 

 

 

Edit: The Lion King is released on 19th July so maybe Childish Gambino has had to pull the European dates for promotional duties and the premieres. No idea what the schedules are like for actors round a films release ?

Honestly, Tame Impala dates this summer make little to no sense geographically. Them not playing SBSR surely helps, but I still have no idea what to make of it, I just really, really hope they headline the Friday and I'm feeling hopeful ?

They didn't update the website, which means other things are coming?

I wouldn't expect too much. They probably didn't update the website because their team is a total mess.

For that reason, they’ve an empty schedule that weekend. They’re touring non stop from now till 6/7 July. That’s a long schedule without a break. Management have probably earmarked a break of a few weeks in the period where Nos Alive is to recharge the batteries. They won’t drop everything for a bog standard festival slot in Portugal. I’ll be extremely shocked if they turn up.

Fair shout

Oh , and Maribou State are in both Alive and Splendour in the grass, so  no band  that is in the australian festival is ruled out from Alive 

[Tremousse]

I'd take Sam Fender from that lineup

Yeah I noticed that Chvrches and Franz Ferdinand did both last year so definitely not ruled out. I guess Tame Impala might be different as they might just be heading home for a few weeks between Glastonbury and Splendour in the Grass but hopefully not.

Just saying... pixies are touring September. Between now and then, leaves a lovely big gap... fingers crossed.

They are already coming to Lisbon in October, so ruled out

Another very uninspired choice.

Tom Walker annoys me to an irrational level 

[Rico_Pliskin]

I hope Mad cool can avoid since he's at doctor music. 

Nos stage level? Don't think so.

Absolutely bang on. The main stage has some amount of dross this year. 

[moz4pm]

To be honest I won't even care whats on mainstage at that point on Saturday, it's the third day, I'll be getting pissed with my mates waiting for SP and Chems.

[Homer]

I've never heard of him. But the last day is already pretty stacked to be fair.

This all well and good but now you're going to have to get pissed whilst hearing Tom Walker wailing in the background ??

I've had a listen to them this week after seeing a few posts on here raving about them and I like what I hear. I'll definitely be watching.

[Tremousse]

I'll drink sangrias during Tom Walker I suppose
