ghandi Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Placebo are suppose to be appearing this year, but when? The suspense for tommorow is killing me, they play the Rockfest in Greece on the 28th and in Turkey on the 21st. Please that they dont play on the Sunday! With Both Blur and Prodigy playing on Sunday, surely a Friday spot on the 26th is on. A lot of travelling though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danwink Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 I have only heard a little bit of their old catalogue but the new songs are absolutely fantastic and cannot get enough of them at the moment so I reckon I shall go to see them so long as they don't clash!

Joshuwarr Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Bloody love them. I think they could make good 2nd headliners on the Pyramid (or 3rd.) I could only have seen them headlining The Other stage so its very confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newagehippie Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 After seeing them play most of the new album at the Opera House Bournemouth the other week I can't wait. But i'm not holding my breath, their touring schedule looks very hectic and I am unsure that they will be able to fit glasters in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj267 Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 (edited) I'm starting to wonder whether there's a suitable slot left for them, to be honest. They won't play. Edited May 24, 2009 by dj267 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatiePC Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 I'm hoping that they don't play at all. If so I shal do my upmost to ensure I don't even catch a glimpse of that idiot Molko. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghandi Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 i would be gutted, all i seem to be listening to at the moment is their old stuff, cant wait for the new album. Also listening to Doves and Ladyhawke. Looks like i might be spending a lot of time in the JP tent if they dont play! Want to catch Dead Weather too.

pedmills Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Tbh, there seems to be a lot of rumoured bands which don't have any free slots. Neil seems to be pretty sure on the second-headliners for all three days but that where does that leave Kaiser Chiefs and Keane? If the CSN and madness are third on sat and sun then I suppose one of them could be third but think there must be some wrong info in terms of either running orders or rumoured acts. If Placebo play then I think second headliner on Other Stage friday is the most likely slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceandfriendly Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Tuesday June 23rd Turkcell Kurucesme Arena Istanbul, Turkey Saturday June 27th Rockwave Festival Athens, Greece Wednesday July 1st Quart Festival Kristiansand, Norway this is their schedule... it's unlikely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staggerlee Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Warm up for Neil Young, or is that taken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerry09 Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 It wouldn't suprise me if they play high up on the Other Stage, I could easily see them being happy to take second or third slots. Although I'd rather they didn't play beneath Franz Ferdinand or the Bloc Party, they deserve a little better than that. Even though they're popular, I don't see them having broad enough appeal for the mainstage, which increasingly seems to be a place mainly for classic/cheese/huge indie acts, although I could be wrong.

Kyelo Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Actually if they play, I reckon it will be supporting the Other Stage headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghandi Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Not on any stage listings! Boo Hoo ! I still hope that they might be announced as a special guest somewhere , fingers crossed. They are still down as a strong rumour with no alloted spot on this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladybug-nina Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Me and my Dad heard them in an interview with Radio 6 ( I think ) and they didnt mention Glasto when asked what Festivals they were doing. Yes my Dad nearly cried! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
