mondoben Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Congratulations on the improvements to the website, nice to see the best festival in the country with a website and forum with lots of shiny new bells and whistles. Went to EOTR last year for first time and, after 16 years of festival-going i can clearly say it's one of the best i've ever been to, you guys should be applauded in putting something so unique together, with such a special atmosphere, setting and line-up. With EOTR and ATP both operating regularly in the UK, music fans are truely spoiled. Secondly....Wouldn't it be nice if My Morning Jacket could headline the Sunday Know they could bring that good-time, warm-cider vibe that Calexico provided last year.

SweepingTheNation Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 I'm wondering how likely that is, though, because the Monsters Of Folk album which includes Jim James is out on 22nd September in the US and they say they're going to properly tour and promote it over there.

angelofharlem Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 I've been thinking about going along to this festival, and if MMJ were announced I'd buy a ticket like a shot..they are one of my favourite bands. Sadly, though, the word is they are on a break and will not be playing again until next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondoben Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Call me cynical...but could this be a "feeler" for a MMJ announcement soon? I (for one) will be disappointed if MMJ play but it seems that they have a lot of support on this forum (and elsewhere) so at least the masses will be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoebox Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Personnally, I feel that MMJ would be a little too similar to Fleet Foxes to be the other headliner. Not sure this is necessarily a bad thing, but I'm hoping for something a little different. Good band, but not one I can get THAT excited about.

Hotcider Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I went to see MMJ last year and they almost blew my eardrums out ! Can't imagine Fleet Foxes doing that ! Still hoping for Lemonheads, Teenage Fanclub & Super Furries. TF & SFA seem to be playing lots of festivals this year so heres hoping. Son Volt touring the States so can't keep banging on about them anymore ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragKnuckles Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Wow, some people are paranoid round here. Nope, just someone who loves the festival and also happens to think MMJ would complement the other two headliners nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondoben Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Just a bit of a fear of the "Newbie"...it has happened before...but I apologise in this case...and a belated welcome to you too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoebox Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 If Teenage Fanclub get added, that will be two times I get to see them this summer. RESULT! Love 'em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
