They still look like one bum note away from a punch up!

A bloke lobbed his drink on stage last night and I think he was very lucky to come out of the gig alive tbh

The Jesus and Mary Chain headline set please.

[fred quimby]

I have mentioned them on many a thread but Chinese Man would go down a treat on the Park (or WH). Brilliant live

 

A shout out for K-flay as well, with a possible new Album. My Daughter plays her enough that I really like her now

Yo La Tengo are top of me wishlist, as they are every year. Saw someone mention Low too, that would be nice. 

LOW!!!! Please dear god be on The Park.

With Hot Chip confirmed to headline The Park, who else do we think could headline it? The Good The Bad & The Queen and Loyle Carner seem obvious options to me. They’re probably too big but maybe Interpol?

[FakeEmpire]

I think The Good, The Bad & the Queen for sure.   Maybe Sharon Van Etten also?

good shout!

[Mattymooz]

I reckon we are probably missing the Friday headliner. I have Hot Chip for Sat and TGTB&TQ on Sunday.

I guess Sharon could headline the Friday, but I have her down for a JP set atm (and I doubt they'd clash Stormzy and Loyle Carner)

[dentalplan]

I'd bet on Kiwanuka.

Seems a fair shout actually. Could see him doing it on the Sunday and The Good The Bad & The Queen doing it on the Friday.

[Yokel Again]

I always relate The Park to End of The Road, so I reckon Kiwanuka and SVE.

[mario man]

Kurt Vile surely nailed on for Park late afternoon/early eve 

[Little Andy]

Thom Yorke late announcement for Friday, pretty please. ?

[mario man]

Also This is the Kit? Saw them last year at APE and they were great

I think he did that last time so they might switch him to JP.   Or he'll be one of those acts that sticks out like a sore thumb on the Other Stage.

Yep. I had actually thought TGTBTQ were at Werchter on Friday but it's Saturday they're there, and I think there'll be a band for the older crowd headlining Friday on the Park against Stormzy, Tame Impala and probably a dance act so yeah that works.

As recent Park players, I think Sharon and Kurt will be elsewhere.

[FakeEmpire]

I'd be very happy to see Sharon in the John Peel actually.   Her latest is probably my album of the year so far and all of her tour dates clash with other things for me.   I can't see me persuading any of my group to see her if she's in a head/sub slot so about 6pm-ish would be lovely.

Saw them a few weeks ago at The Roundhouse. Top stuff from Kate and the gang.!

I was thinking more fairly high Acoustic or top of Avalon for them.?

Seen Rex Orange County is confirmed for Sunday on The Park. Anyone know where this info has come from? I can't seem to find anything.

Also is he expected to headline? Expected him to play a bigger stage but at an earlier time for some reason..

I think he'll sub it. Same slot as Sampha got last time, and I'd say Rex is a similar size to Sampha in 2017.

Sounds about right. Saw that set and he had a good sized crowd. 

Got a feeling Sunday evening is going to be clash city either way

[The Clearest Blue]

Not sure about Michael Kiwanuka being a Park headliner. I see him as a similar size to Gregory Porter, didn’t he play mid afternoon West Holtz first time and then early Pyramid second? Maybe I’m bias as I want to see him but don’t want him to clash so would prefer an earlier in the day slot

[FloorFiller]

Who we thinking for Park headliners then? Hot Chip confirmed for the Saturday. I’m guessing The Good, the Bad & the Queen are another. Drawing a bit of a blank on #3 (if they’re even on the first poster).

[rock the clock]

I thought Sharon van etten was a good shout, she seems to have gained popularity since the last time she was there

Record label website I think. Defo listed as Park Sunday.
