shoebox Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 So I've been following EotR on Twitter for a while, but I noticed today that they've grouped up all the bands they're following. Makes for interesting reading and (probably!) highly unadvisable speculation about future artist announcements. So based on looking at this list, I am now expecting to see Port O'Brien, Dinosaur Jr, Of Montreal and The Decemberists at this year's festival. http://twitter.com/EOTR/bands/members Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweepingTheNation Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Yeah, if that's true, you've gone and spoilt all the announcement anticipation. I can definitely see Dinosaur Jr and the Decemberists as typically EOTR headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoebox Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Well excuse me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Well, no, you haven't, there's loads of main stage acts and Big Top headliners to look forward to yet, but even so... Would they have booked all three this early? (I suppose they might as well after the third headliner problems last year, actually) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfamongwolves Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) dinosaur jr on the garden stage would be amazing. i think they will book headliners pretty soon. after the hard time with last years sunday headliner. i doubt very much if the hold steady were on the top of the list .

shoebox Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 And also, don't forget, I could be very, very, VERY wrong. And most probably am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elfy Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 There's still no certainty at all - all very exciting Annoyingly we're away next week when they make the announcement (actually, quite happy to be going on holiday, not complaining about that bit!! ) .....but may need to have a quick peep at the internet on Tues evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcider Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 I wonder if Billy Bragg will be there? Would be great to see him & Wilco do the Mermaid Avenue stuff. Any chance of the promised (by him in 2006 admittedly) return of Badly Drawn Boy ? And returns for Mr Hawley and a first by Son Volt ?

shoebox Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Can't say I'd be too excited about BDB returning, if he were to do so. I loved him for those first three albums but he's become incredibly dull now, imo. By his own admission he's trying to mimic Coldplay's approach to penning bland and tedious indie-ballads and cashing in on that successful formula. How's that working for you Badly? I actually saw him at the Ben & Jerry's Sundae thing a few years back and the contrast between the old material and new was astronomical. But yeah, Billy Bragg is always good value, I'd have him on the bill in a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcider Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Saw him on the last tour and I thought he was still great. Each to his own I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave S Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Billy Bragg is a genius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
