Why are Two Door Cinema Club still that big in the UK? Subbing, really?

Their first album is still massive. Also they're really good live

Is it really still because of that first album? 😅Here in Belgium that album had two hits but that was ages ago. They're tiny now. Weird to see a band like that being billed so high.

They still headline mid tier festivals here. They’re a solid act with a great live reputation. A very safe booking and a staple of British fests at this point tbf

[SteventheG]

I personally like all of two doors albums

[Andre91]

Two Door did the O2 on their last tour. They’re still really popular over here.

Get Fontaines & Murder Capital on that lineup! 

[TheWaters]

Fontaines, Murder Capital, Girl Band, Silverbacks, any of them would be great. The Irish sure know how to make some great post-punk

[FeverDream]

Apoligies because a lineup has just been posted but been working on this for a few hours so may as well share.

This is what I could see us ending up with (or very similar). Lower stages aren't fleshed out bc honestly I have no clue lower down.

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts (some acts probs are misplaced tbh)

 

 

[Jericode]

Wolf Alice stand out as probably being too low but I like a lot of the acts you've added. Missing Neck Deep too who are already confirmed.

Just realised I forgot Neck Deep and Jack Harlow! And I'm not sure tbh. I toyed with putting them 3rd down but the acts I've currently got 3rd down I was reluctant to move

[NoBuses]

Declan Mckenna's new album is brilliant

[CG31]

Aye Decs new album is top notch, 3rd down Friday next year I reckon

Never really listened to QOTSA, had a quick listen on spotify and sounds a bit boring to me - any recommendations? I know Josh Homme produced Humbug, is there anything like that?

Personally I'd disagree with 1st song from Songs for the Deaf. If you don't like Go with the Flow then I'd not probably bother with much else. 

As for producing Humbug, I only cared about one song as given I don't care for Queens it was unlikely I would for a lot of Humbug and unfortunately too much went into Suck it and see too. AM was by far imo anyway a more solid and return to base even for the one's I liked which was a lot.

It's the Hunna as special guests that I strongly disagree with. Also Wolf Alice are too low and Fontaines are too big to headline FR

can't see that happening, none of the songs seemed to even come close to the popularity of 'Brazil' and the singles haven't really made him bigger than he already was and he was booked as fourth down R1 this year, still got time before next year to prove how successful this album can be for him though

Maybe 4th down then, still think he’ll be there

I put them as special guests bc they had their logo on the old lineup and couldn't see them playing in a slot which would have them a logo on the new lineup. They seem the type of band to get pussy if they didn't have their logo on next year haha. I disagree about Fontaine's - amazing band but I reckon they're FR headline level tbh

Fontaines are playing Ally Pally and have sold out Manchester Academy twice for their next tour and are playing a bunch of other cities. Way too big for FR imo

[jump]

Milk Teeth have split about a year to the day they played the main stage. That’s a shame but the line up changes have been crazy for them from the last few years.

Yeah a band isn’t going from 3rd on R1 to headlining arguably the smallest tent excluding the Introducing and having released a class album

Doja Cat won’t be subbing, shes lower than DaBaby on the poster so if he’s 3rd then so is she (or lower) but I think it’ll be DaBaby subbing and Doja 3rd

[metallimuse]

Guessing tickets didn't sell out then even with people stared of festivals and the new 2 stages 6 headliners tag?
