Surprised at the lack of Jamie t, I think we’ll be getting blossoms which I kind of already expected, hopefully Rick astley too 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flints Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 I'm surprised no one has mentioned Elbow yet. I'm surprised they have never played Tramlines, seems a perfect festival for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, huge amount of churn lately in this group of festivals. Definitely won't be going to Kendal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thinking of headliners we've not had before. Although given the Kendal lineup it'll likely be same old roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also played Jodrell before it became Bluedot, so potentially in the booking pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too soon for Kasabian, Royal Blood or Nile Rodgers to headline Tramlines again I agree so can't see much cross over in the way of headliners.

Samjones Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 I wouldn’t be against a Nike Rogers return so soon. As repetitive as Kendal lineup is, can’t deny it’s a pretty strong lineup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As repetitive as Kendal lineup is, can’t deny it’s a pretty strong lineup I'm not against return headliners per say but Rodgers could only headline the Sunday and I believe that is going to be Paul Heaton. Its the Friday and Saturday that is worrying, think Kaiser Chiefs will end up subbing one of those days and Blossoms unfortunately now seem a shoe-in (not my sort of music and fail to see really what progression they've gone on since they subbed about two years ago). I think we all thought this lineup was going to be below par given the drawn out announcement and it is shaping up to be as expected. If the lineup is as shaping up, not sure I'll be attending for 2024 - probably end up at TRNSMT or Boardmasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBarbour Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) The lack of headliners I mentioned has just shone through with the Kendal Calling line up. There is next to no one new or inspiring around this year. Blue Dot has done a decent job scraping something together. Superstruct has more or less acquired all remaining shares in festivals they invested in. So get ready for cost cutting and samey line ups for a few years.
