Critically acclaimed and a great set, but Lankum are several levels above her - as pointed out they're headlining the second stage at Latitude, the same level as a 2023 EOTR headliner, and they just sold out the 3,000 capacity Roundhouse. 12 minutes ago, zahidf said: They could do a Angel Oslen/Magentic Fields i guess! Neither were promoted as headliners, though. The point I was making earlier was that it's self-defeating to announce that you trust Lankum's size and live power enough to take that chance on elevating them to headliner level and then put them on the second stage.

Johnny5eyes Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 As a follower of a lower league football team all this EOTR headline speculation reminds me of the transfer window. Loads of optimistic speculation and you end up with a defender on loan from QPR or Unknown Mortal Orchestra. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny5eyes Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Whilst I'd agree that the undercard always has a few previously unknown gems on it I was so underwhelmed by the headliners last year ( not for the first time), I'm holding off on buying a ticket until the first announcement. 230 quid is a lot and I feel last year was so underpowered at the top end it was a bit steep. Also I've been to the last 12 in a row, don't really like camping and am wondering whether it's all becoming a bit 'familiar', the lack of Andyloos was a massive blow as well. We will see, thee dreaded FOMO will probably get the better of me in the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd imagine they'd have to take some of the feedback on board. Worst toilets Ive seen at a festival since the 00s at Glasto.

lessthanwill1 Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 (edited) Looks like The Decemberists are gearing up for an announcement today. I wonder if EOTR and Moseley Folk Festival have had to wait to announce their line up until after this? Though All Points East obviously didn’t… If they are one of the main three headliners, who out of the most touted options do we think they’ll be instead of? Slowdive? Also can’t help but feel Idles might potentially sneak in as one of the headliners. Edited February 6 by lessthanwill1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moseley is announcing at 4pm, I imagine EOTR will give a time later today. But there's always coincidence, a lot of people thought last year that Green Man's first names were held off until 1st March so Boygenius could be announced for both it and Connect at the same time but only the latter happened. Then there's those Fat White Family dates that made so many people convinced they'd be the secret set...

I'd love to see her play EOTR, some of the names being put forward are a bit stale. I mean who hasn't seen Idles by now?! Whereas she would be an exciting booking. Hoping that the poster has quite a few unforeseen bookings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I really don't think IDLES are playing, it's mostly come from Simon recently following them on IG and it not being an unreasonable fit but they're headlining Truck (albeit the Thursday) which is double the size. Whereas even with the Decemberists you've got a band that have never played an outdoor British festival until the week before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxialac Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 On a separate note, it amazes me that posters don't get leaked. So many people must know about it and would be so easy to pop it up on twitter anonymously. Anyway, roll on tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
