Looks like TV on the Radio won't happen because of their recently announced European tour - date clashes

You've ruined my life...

nah, wasn't getting my hopes up tbh.

[radiohea_d]

btw, they dont have a date on the 18th??

Hah, are you sure about not getting your hopes up?! Off memory the first date they play of the tour is in London, just for the one, then they go off to places around Vienna around the time of the 18th I think, and I doubt a band of that status can justify going back and forth for one festival. Saying that lots of tours don't make any geographical sense at all now... Just look at Frank Turners October tour.

ALSO I discovered today that 2000 trees and Latitude clash, and I'd already bought tickets for trees

Stupid organisational skills!

Could Mogwai play again? as they are playing a few festivals this year I think.

[sebby]

how about passion pit~? friendly fires?

i want so many people to play at this festival it is unreal!!!!

[sungubala]

Im still trying to find out who the old "Legends" act (e.g. Blondie) will be this year.

Struggling though!

[Davness]

My money's on The Human League

[SweepingTheNation]

Madness? Guaranteed ticket sales (maybe even too big for purpose), back catalogue everyone knows, new album in May, still some amount of kudos despite Suggs' best televisual efforts....

If I had to put money on it Madness would be up there with my picks.

they're playing a big outdoor show in that part of the world at around the time of Latitude, so I think them playing Latitude is extremely unlikely.

Ah just checked it out on their site. They appear to be playing at the Norfolk showground about a month before Latitude.

I had no idea, apologies! I agree, the chances of them playing at Latitude are pretty slim after seeing that.

That would be brillant I saw them live the week 'Don't you want me baby' went to number 1!

[Corporal Clegg]

I'm hoping The Doves will be one of the headliners.They've got to be doing the festival circuit this summer surely!?

[flossy_]

i hope someone like royksopp plays too

and yes, they are out again tonight for the 1st time in 3 years, so a full uk tour till the middle of may and then they are hitting the festivals really hard.

[rseamer]

TV on the radio are playing London the week before - so high chance of them being there
