I'd love QOTSA, and it would fit in if a announcement is imminent with their Glasgow show this week but I don't know if DF/TRNSMT sees them as a fit for the festival 1 hour ago, Jack.194 said: Blur?

Shootenanny! Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 Having a guess at some acts, based on who may touring and TRNSMT loving repeat bookings: Kings of Leon, Catfish and the Bottlemen, The Killers, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Jess Glynne, The Snuts, Kaiser Chiefs, Jamie Webster, Callum Beattie, The Reytons, Dylan John Thomas, Brooke Combe, Rianne Downey Hope we find out soon!

Burritomancer Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 Biffy Clyro put up on their Insta that announcements are coming soon. Could see them at TRNSMT or Summer Sessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to see them pivot to a big greatest hits album and big tour is a bit of a surprise. I get the sense from an interview he did with Consequence of Sound that - much like Direct Hits - it is a contractual thing in terms of a release, which makes it more surprising they'll tour again next year. I have a quiet fear that it could effectively be a farewell tour, or at least a faux-farewell tour ahead of a prolonged hiatus. There seems to be... if not peace, then acceptance that Dave and Mark will only chip in as and when it suits them, on both sides of the debate, so I wonder if Brandon and Ronnie are now simply divided on where to go. (Not based on anything but a hunch, but I imagine Ronnie loves the anthemic records more than, say, a second stab at Pressure Machine territory.) Boy and Your Side of Town feel both more like they could be from The Desired Effect than The Killers though. It's a weird one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordo1701 Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 Holly Humberstone is playing Edinburgh in March so I can easily picture her being on the main stage at some point. Declan McKenna is also playing Glasgow then too so he’ll most likely make an appearance too. Can’t really see who else can be headlining that hasn’t headlined before but only time will tell. Surely Sam Fender will be sitting this one out? Him headlining after appearing as a special guest the year before wasn’t really much of a change of set & this is coming from someone who loves Sam Fender.

NorthernSoul52 Posted November 17, 2023 Report Share Posted November 17, 2023 Yeah, Sam Fender being back so soon definitely feels like it could oversaturate the market there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted November 17, 2023 Report Share Posted November 17, 2023 Sam Fender is NOT playing four years in a row in high spots. Don't think even T did that at their worst, and they were definitely worse than TRNSMT for this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted November 17, 2023 Report Share Posted November 17, 2023 Anyone else thinking Fall Out Boy might turn up here? I don't think they're too hard going for TRNSMT but still think it might be a bit of a push. Think it could be a VERY good booking if they go for it though.

As it stands, that's the latter's only date, though it may well be that the exclusivity clause prevents any other UK shows. Download surely used a big carrot to convince them to fly over for a one-off gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re in with a shout, but there’s also Edinburgh, Glasgow & Stirling Summer Sessions so they might play one of those. Hopefully get an announcement next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted November 18, 2023 Report Share Posted November 18, 2023 There won't be Summer Sessions in Glasgow. They'll continue to have the stadium tours turn up at Bellahouston instead I reckon. It'd probably be too late in the summer anyways if FOB are doing the early to mids. Did think about Download maybe not wanting to share headliners though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be at a smaller scale than past years and may not even be at Glasgow green, as other announced summer sessions gigs seem to be much smaller acts (however in smaller cities than Glasgow) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 Could Summer Sessions be more a curated line-up of shows in smaller venues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraybentos1 Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 Surely they’ve at least tried to get Dua Lipa for this? Clearly about next June/ July in Europe. Someone said elsewhere on this forum that they’d asked Coldplay too I think, but they seem too big for trnsmt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 If these were the days of T in the Park, I'd wholly assume so. But... not sure TRNSMT would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingcrawler Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 It's not for me at all but I think that's a perfect set of headliners for their demographic. Gerry is on the way down now but Courteeners presumably on his day will make sure it sells out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayden2304 Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Completely embraced the dark fruit indie lot there, absolutely dire. Was debating between this and 2000 trees and this has made my decision much easier. Im sure enter shikari will be doing trees now so only really tldp and declan mckenna (and I guess courteeners) I care about missing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanh Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Pretty uninspired, but very strong. 2 Scottish legends + LG, reckon it'll sell out pretty fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
