incident Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Just about 2 months earlier than they announced this year - so hopefully this time they've had less issue getting some suitable acts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utwothefly Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Some of the bands mentioned to headline.. Stereophonics, Snow Patrol, Lewis Capaldi, Libertines, Catfish etc... are really off putting, not that I don’t like them just seems dull and uninspiring. It was only 2017 they had DM and the Killers there. Seems like people are suggesting they are going for small arena acts and not big stadium bands anymore.

galbani Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 So. Last stab at it. What are people predicting for the big announcement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam217 Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Any of Stereophonics, Kings Of Leon, Foals, Catfish or The Strokes I’d be happy with Across the weekend: Kaiser Chiefs, Snow Patrol, Sam Fender, Kooks Make or break year tbh, either they’ll go back to stadium level headliners or may be stuck with the lower arena headliners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utwothefly Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 (edited) I reckon... Snow Patrol, Catfish, Stereophonics and Outsiders... Peppers, Green Day, Bon Jovi which id like! ————— but would really like... RATM, U2, Supergrass, Black Crowes Edited December 1, 2019 by utwothefly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Vampire Weekend maybe? Would put on an awesome headline set and definitely be on the cheaper side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing: Thu: Westlife Fri: Kendrick Lamar Big Top: Smashing Pumpkins Sat: Catfish + Simple Minds Big Top: (Some dance act) Sunday: Billy Joel + Lewis Capaldi Big Top: Snow Patrol Massive guesses. But all are touring next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maelzoid Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Best case scenario headliners: Aerosmith / Coldplay / Billy Joel Worst case scenario headliners: Stereophonics / Catfish and t'bottlemen / Florence and t'machine Support / big top: Tears For Fears / Lewis Capaldi / Snow Patrol / Simple Minds / Sam Fender / Gerry Cinnamon And of course, that guy from Starsailor!!!

gfa Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Could the black keys be in with a shout - not sure where they would play though maybe a headline slot with closing set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem I see is if they drop down to a 2nd division festival on a scale with Latitude, Kendal etc. they will struggle as the transport costs add a significant extra expense - they need the huge acts to lure people across the water. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Let it be noted that I’ve got a feeling about Robbie Williams doing this, but it seems too much of an outside shot to actually predict. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnabylike Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Some acts I think could be announced Paul Weller Ian Brown Primal Scream Sam Fender The Damned Seasick Steve Frank Turner and The Sleeping Souls Plastic Mermaids The Pigeon Detectives Fontaines D.C Stereophonics Foals Catfish and the Bottlemen Kaiser Chiefs Snow Patrol Crowded House Squeeze Lewis Capaldi Happy Mondays The Libertines Sea GIrls Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever In Summary, we're in for a pretty shite year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galbani Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Reel Big Fish, James, Eddi Reader, Caravan Palace, Brian Ferry, Ocean Colour Scene, Train, London Grammar. Quite diverse, maybe some are a little long in the tooth, but guaranteed entertainment supporting hopefully major headliners! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
