airboy paul Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 I second The Divine Comedy. And Eels would make a great headline band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William of Walworth Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Here's something a bit leftfield -- Michelle Shocked. I saw her at Rhythm Festival, and she was fresh and full of life, the old classics came over really well. Was listening to Short Sharp Shocked this morning as well, and additionally to having an amazing voice and some great songs, she's a pretty damned good guitarist -- she's been in National Picking Championships in the U.S. and everything.

Sipperana Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) Oh well, if you're happy to have musicians acting like complete twats and being utterly braindead, coked up and offensive to boot then fine ... (Conor Oberst, not Low -- the Low guy sounds like he had genuine problems). Edited September 25, 2008 by Sipperana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William of Walworth Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 No worries man, I like your Hayseed Dixie and Ukranians ideas, seen em both before several times and they're Both still keeping on and both on the circuit at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragKnuckles Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 ...also try to get My Brightest Diamond back in '09. Just listening to her new album for the first time and it is great...early to mid on the Garden stage I reckon (enough material now)...we could all rock out, sway blissfully and be strangely scared all at the same time!

cogstar Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Ok I know its a bit old hat and even populist but I would love to see the waterboys play EOTR main stage. I think they would fall in love with the place and it would fall in love with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sipperana Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Having seen her very briefly on the piano stage, I'd like to see Liz Green come back next year. Also...

Sipperana Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Ok, so I discover that Field Music are in suspension while they concentrate on the The Week That Was project... And is that the only time that you can use two consecutive the's without referring to Matt Johnson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marooned Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 The Waterboys have played at The Larmer Tree Festival in the past so should remember what a lovely setting Larmer Tree is for both the Larmer Tree and End of the Road Festivals. ----------------------------------------------- ...agreed, they've 'been there, done it, got the t-shirt' Nice 'dig' at the promotion industry Pete - surely, we're not seeing a 'nasty' side of you - Olgrumpyfy beware!!!!!!!!

SweepingTheNation Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Steve Lamacq on Radio 2 in a roundabout way gave us the first name for this year, which they've confirmed themselves - the band he calls potentially this year's Fleet Foxes, The Low Anthem.
