For all the massive Fleet Foxes fans on this site, thought i'd point you this way...

Their taking in a few venues in England, and I've noticed they are busy Sat and Sunday Glasto, so presume Friday! Sorry if thats already been announced.

Neil whats your feeling on when they'll play? Are they Park stage headliners?

I'd be very tempted to give Shakey a miss to see them should that be the case.

Just listening to all their stuff now, on the Sun Giant EP at the moment, I might wander over to see them whatever stage they are on.

Noticed they are playing Wolves Civic on the Thursday, won't be able to make that as I will be enjoying a pint of Brothers Cider in a field in Somerset

I saw them a couple of weeks ago in London and they were amazing. At one point the lead singer unplugged his guitar and did a totally acoustic version of one of their songs. The whole crowd was spellbound. It was a magical moment. I reckon they would be excellent to watch at Glasto.

what?????????

Fleet Foxes sound nothing like the Coral.

[Tugger2k]

I like some of Shakey's stuff but I wouldnt class meself as a "big fan". Also the missus would have less than zero interest in seeing him knocking out 30 minute jams. Neither of us have seen him play. Never really that interested.

If Shakey wanted to he has the potential to be not only the best headliner of the weekend but also the festival's history. Of the dozen of his songs that I really like though I might only get to hear two or three. The chin stroking musos will love it of course but it won't be my idea of a perfect Friday night with the missus in a huff etc etc.

We know all of Fleet Foxes stuff and would love to see their debut at the festival. If I can see both - happy days.

[Wooderson]

i think you'll find that current single wouldn't sound at all out of place on a coral album.

[Wooderson]

fair enough mate

and with regards to the set, do you really think you'll only get 2 or 3 of the numbers you know?

i cant see him coming out at glasto and knocking out a self indulgent set (same for the boss).

with them both booked for HRC the glasto weekend i can see both doing a greatest hits type show at the big G and then doing the fanboy set the following night in london!!

Cowgirl

Winterlong

Tonights the Night

Free World

Cortez

Southern Man

The odds on all of these being played are minute. And that would really only be just over half the show.

Free World is total pish. You didn’t mention fan favourite Like a Hurricane either. Which is also total pish.

[The Nal]

I'm not a big fan of free world, but hurricane's brilliant; The solo especially.

Fleet Foxes?

[pedmills]

The fact that Michael Eavis said they were playing suggests to me they would be on the Pyramid, but I think they would be better suited to the park.

[Homer]

I totally disagree, their sound is perect for a sunny afternoon. I saw one of their gigs last year and though they were very good live, the five of us all found them boring in that context.
