DomDom1984 Posted February 12, 2023 Report Share Posted February 12, 2023 Franz Ferdinand would be a delightful addition tbh. Them and Primal Scream together could work I reckon for selling tickets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom1984 Posted February 12, 2023 Report Share Posted February 12, 2023 I'm not sure who the obvious other one here is at all, which means this is probably one of the things in the thread that I've missed along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeps Posted February 12, 2023 Report Share Posted February 12, 2023 Interpol an option for playing? I see they've been announced for a few festivals recently and could potentially fit in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted February 12, 2023 Report Share Posted February 12, 2023 Nothing in August though, so I reckon they'll be gone from Europe by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LD1903 Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 Any chance of Bloc Party somewhere in the bill @Mezhyp1 ? They’re playing a few festivals this summer but nothing in Scotland so far apart from supporting Paramore at the Hydro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primal Scream / Franz Ferdinand Boygenius That's actually not bad. Fred Again will obviously shift a lot of tickets but so too will Boygenius despite them probably getting a lot of "who?" responses once they're announced. I'm not sure how many weekend tickets they'll sell though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefski Posted February 18, 2023 Report Share Posted February 18, 2023 Got a feeling we'll be getting an announcement this week, maybe ahead of payday. One last ponder, which I'll happily let @Mezhyp1rule out if so, if Boygenius aren't headlining outright is there someone potentially after them... Of which hasn't been mentioned on here yet, and has no other UK shows/fests announced (yet?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffinghell Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Any chance of Grace Jones at this? Or Iggy Pop or the Strokes? All have a very small number of festival type dates lined up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefski Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Going by what's around at summer time, I'll guess it being one of First Aid Kit, Loyle Carner, Wet Leg (don't think of them as a headliner, but they'd be lightening bottling their recent success...) Christine and the Queens, Two Door Cinema Club, Sigur Ros, Grace Jones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I'm still not buying Wet Leg as a headliner at all. Not even lightning in a bottle stuff. Grace Jones would be great. Enjoyed her immensly when I seen her at No. 6. Two Door Cinema Club would be fun as I've not seen them before, and it doesn't look like I'll be doing the Leeds thing before Slam Dunk.

BlackFoxx Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Don't think Wet Leg could do it because of R+L and Rock En Seine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
