Pixies and/or Mogwai would be great headliners.

[Gnomicide]

Frankie and The Pistols reportedly doing 20 festivals next year. Got.to be a good chance of Bearded.

Hawkwind just announced some dates with a TBC for the Saturday of Bearded (and with Yorkshire and Cambridgeshire either side, so nicely in the middle). Would be excited to see them.

 

The Sisters Of Mercy also have two London shows on the Sunday and Monday, maybe a contender for Friday or Saturday. They are definitely up and down live, but last time I saw them the lineup change seemed to have worked wonders, and it was the best time I'd seen them since 1991.

Nice to see Springsteen is doing a couple of warm up gigs in Manchester before Bearded...ahem.

On Woodland I would think?

 

Any sniff of an initial announcement yet?

[riverwise]

Waterboys also have a gap in their schedule on the 25th May (but it would be a fourth night on the trot for them, which they don't seem to be doing elsewhere in the tour so maybe, maybe not). Would be happy to see them - thought I'd drifted away but they were really good at BDs 2023

Yeah...about 3.30pm before Jess Silk would be about right I reckon 

[Flaminglippy]

In terms of indie bands definitely playing round Bearded weekend, Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight, Cribs, The Coral and We Are Scientists are all playing a gig in Leeds the following weekend. Would love Cribs and We Are Scientists at Bearded...the rest would probably watch if didn't clash with anybody I was desperate to see.

Yeah, I wasn't that bothered about seeing them but couldnt be arsed moving and they really surprised me that night...really good set.  

[Flaminglippy]

First announcement was 1st Nov last year so hopefully only a few weeks to go before we hear something.

Wondered briefly if Paul Heaton being active that weekend meant he might play but I'd assume his own stadium gig as near as Sheffield would rule that out.

Yeah, did think that. Might still be a shout as people at Bearded won't be able to do his gig anyway. My mate's lad saw him at Kendal and said he was one of the highlights of the weekend.

I really thought The Cribs would be announced for this year (or rather convinced myself they would be), they did a few gigs in and around Bearded if I remember rightly.  They're one of my favourite bands so would love to see them on the line-up for 2025.  Wouldn't mind The Coral either.

Another word for blooming could be blossoming!

[Flaminglippy]

Never know where Blossoms sit in terms of festival line ups? I'd be disappointed if they headlined a 'main' day but as a Thursday headliner would be OK

 

My money is on Blossoms Thursday, Supergrass Fri or Sat Pixies Sunday

Sounds like something tomorrow. Unsure if it's line up orientated or maybe some changes for next year
