anyone care to make a full festival republic lineup prediction?

[KingOfTheRodeo]

read on the official leeds forums that minus the bear have self-confirmed! they would be a great left-field pick. would they headline? either way, i'll have some of that.

[rexclark]

I would like to see them go for some nostalgia bands like bluetones, gomez, kula shaker or ocean colour scene. I know these bands are not at all fashionable but they would go down far better then the majority of here today, gone tomorrow bands we see most years to empty tents.

[Atterz123]

GIVE ME TUBELORD

[rockinthecasbah]

I think it's absurd that Delphic are 4th from top NME and The xx may well headline the FR but there we go. Interchangeable headliners would be BRMC with Eels and The xx with Ellie Golding.

[mrtourette]

BRMC would instantly top my 'to see' list, but are a band that are playing Brixton Academy later in the year likely to be making an appearance in the FR tent?

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

I'm hoping for something like to be there and about:

blood red shoes - really like them, anyone know the chances?

giggs

the pretty reckless - doing warped tour so a possibilty

Bombay bicycle club

tinie tempah

the cheek

Dead prez - no chance but would be quite an addition

Sage Francis

chapel club

[dan1892]

sage francis would be good.

I'd love to see World Unite: Lucifer Youth Foundation somewhere on there. Or BBC introducing? I dont know if they;re signed. Infact i know nothing about them.

Just Heavy Pop makes them one of the most promising up and coming bands around.

Fairly confident re: The National they're at Pukkelpop and Lowlands the week before R/L and then at Electirc Picnic in Ire the week after, would make a lot of sense for them to play!

[Vieuphoria]

The National for Sunday please... be a great way to end my weekend

[swordfish]

Yep

Panda Bear

Brett Domino Trio

Goatsey

Nick Drake

Zola Jesus

Kevin Prince Boateng

Jim McNulty

something like that, very hard stage to predict

[Nathan113]

I hope your not talking about the Nick Drake I'm thinking of? (becuase he's dead)

[pickitoutlandreau]

Tokyo Police Club. Make it happen.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Atari Teenage Riot have self confirmed, so I'd guess that's one headliner right there. Also would suggest that the announcement is coming soon, probably tommorow.

[wheres the mudfight]

no way RBF will headline the FR tent. or Ash. I'd love both, notwithstanding the fact I have 3 headliners to watch, but they're way too big for that tent. it will not happen, if it does I'll attempt to eat a dozen pickled eggs and wash it down with a bottle of Jaegermeister. maybe 1 bigish band under Bad religion as there is a slot or two to fill on the lock up but doubt it'll be RBF or anyone that's not playing. Lagwagon wou;ld be sweeet! <img src="/public/style_emoticons/">http://www.efestivals.co.uk/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

as for FR headliners. Marina and the diamonds seems a good shout but no way I'd see her over A3 or BR or B182. other than that, no idea... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
