Chapple12345 Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) My aunt had suggested Kings of Leon to headline before the first announcement and they're in Europe in the same weekend, I'd certainly be interested to see if they came into contention...but we shan't get too ahead of ourselves ?

Give Underworld a bit longer and pop in a couple of smaller acts lower down that day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swelsbyuk Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Parklife recently announced the cancellation of Cardi B with 72hrs notice and just rejigged their line-up (and probably saved themselves 100's of £k by not replacing her). If SP cancelled then FR would have a real quandary. They know that few people will be coming just for SP so few refunds will be requested so they either: add a decent headliner that they hope will boost ticket sales or push a smaller act up to the slot, not gain much more in additional sales but pocket the £200k (or whatever it was) that they would've paid SP for their headline slot I hope it's the former. I like SP but feel they are completely out of place in the Latitude 2019 line-up. No ill-will to the SP guitarist and wish him speedy recovery but if they are cancelled then could imagine one of these being called up, schedules permitting: Vampire Weekend Kylie The National Tame Impala Janelle Monae Bastille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapple12345 Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 I entirely agree about Snow Patrol being an outdated headliner, perhaps elsewhere on the Obelisk but not a headliner anymore but in regards to headliners I do think they'll take advantage and book a different act. Whilst I like the list of possibilities I could only really see Bastille being part of it and The National headlining 3 times in a decade would probably be an overkill, but my inner guilty pleasure would love to see Kylie on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapple12345 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Isle of Wight Festival are doing a similar thing this year of having a headliner and special set after and that's finished by 12:00am, after that I reckon its more likely the set times will be Snow Patrol 8:30pm-10:00pm Underworld 10:30pm-11:30/45pm With the rest of the day being anyone's guess, but hopefully it'll be soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a huge fan of the Stereophonics but at least they have a few gears to their sound and a couple of good tunes to boot! I'll be watching them on Saturday night.

Agreed, Snow Patrol seemed a bit of a downer for a Saturday night and Stereophonics have a bit more of a 'get the party started' vibe around them, I've heard great reviews from a friend who saw them recently and I'm more likely to see a bit of them before watching Underworld afterwards, I reckon they'll shift a few more tickets now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I agree Stereophonics a slightly better prospect than SP. Underworld are the real headliners for me anyway.....they were stonking at Glasto in 2016 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, as soon as I saw they'd cancelled I knew they'd go for something similar for the day tickets who were going for SP, but as I've said I do feel Stereophonics a arguably bigger draw and they've headlined other festivals recently like TRNSMT last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeble Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Would’ve preferred the Manics but Sterophonics put on a good show, saw that at IOW a few years ago and really enjoyed them, not sure I’ll bother seeing them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickyboy Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Does anyone have any clue regarding timings of acts? What time is the curfew, etc?

Fulfils the purpose of plotting schedule of those two stages though, hopefully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
