Black Grape

[luckysalt]

Have reformed

Happy Mondays did V last year, Black Grape have more history with Reading and Leeds, could be a good shout to appear at this years

[thomasowen]

The only thing I know about them is that Shaun Ryder is involved. Any good? Headlining FR stage perhaps (keeping in mind I have no idea how popular they would be)

[luckysalt]

They headlined Reading in 1996!

Then split up the following year.

I can see them NME headliner or on main stage you know.

Heres a couple of their tracks

[Vieuphoria]

Headline main again defo

If Shawn Ryder could keep it together they'd be great, but thats a big if.

[luckysalt]

He was a bit bland at V last year but in 2007 he was fantastic

last year, he said Bez wasn't going to tour anymore and you kinda got the feeling his heart wasn't in it. Reforming Black Grape is obviously what he wanted to do now, I think he put in a great performance if he gets booked and Black Grape wasn't all about Ryder either, so it doesn't rely on just his vocals

If there's any reformation I'd love to see at Leeds it's Sueds, shame they're only doing one gig.

[VCK]

I'd much rather have the Mondays play.
