Been taken down from the BST site and not on TM You mean this one - https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/bob-dylan-neil-young-hyde-park-london-12-07-2019/event/3700557ABA30A0EC It's no longer a BST event as Neil YOUNG doesn't like the main sponsor - Barclays. It's going ahead but not promoted as BST Edited January 20, 2019 by JBarbour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madge is an outside bet, she’s touring next year so could end up at a festival somewhere. Edited January 21, 2019 by utwothefly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R Shah Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Do we think, like the 2nd weekend, theyll announce the final two headliners on this Friday and Monday (in the next week) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why they can't do both though, perhaps unlikely as I reckon theyll do 1 as a European exclusive or something. The Strokes have got to be in with a minor shout although Latitude seems way more likely at this point. Radiohead as a dark horse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiohead won’t play, Thom Yorke is touring solo. The Strokes aren’t gonna play, they played a few years ago and it didn’t sell great. Might sell a bit better nowadays but they haven’t done anything since to warrant coming back. It’ll probably be oldies or pop acts from here on out. That’s mostly what the festival is now aside from the odd exception. You should be less excited about it imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, the organisers seem to know these days exactly who they want to market to and what will sell. As you say, it's mostly heritage rock acts and pop megastars, with a little sideline in older pop acts - Buble, Dion, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaarlie Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Any chance of KOL? Playing FiB in spain and I'm not really sure where they'd play over here, don't think they'd take a gig at Kendal or one of the smaller fests and no space for them elsewhere?

Thought they'd have a Scottish date and an English one and I'd have grouped Rize with the smaller fests. Maybe they would take smaller fests, they haven't done anything noteworthy in a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 They played BST on this album tour. And an outdoor date in Glasgow for that matter. I think they’re just picking up the last couple of festivals they can on this tour - R+L last year showed they’ll happily boot it over to Europe for the odd festival date.
