They said recently that they want to headline it again. “Didn’t know you could headline it twice” until Coldplay and Muse the other year. Someone’s not been keeping them looped in, for their own good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they that much less a live draw than The Killers in the UK? Don’t get me wrong, their time has come and gone for such things as far as I’m concerned, but then I feel the same about the latter.

Stereophonics have been taking non-headline slots in the UK for the past decade or more. The Killers haven't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 I’m sure they surpassed 5, seem to remember hearing they did it like 13 times or something at some shows? Might be my memory exaggerating though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 The Pogues once did 'Rainy Night In Soho' twice during a set, but I think that was just cause Shane McGowan was too pissed to remember they'd already done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
