Who would you like to see next year?

[wackojackohighcliffe]

Go on then, who do you wanna see in 2011?

for me i'd love to see arcade fire (probably too big now), band of horses, bon iver, bright eyes (with their reformation it's a possibility), Sufjan Stevens (I heard sofia wants him(at the festival)), the hold steady, the rural alberta advantage, james mercer in any of his incarnations, Spoon, Wintersleep, Menomena, Iron & Wine, My Morning Jacket, Decemeberists, Right Away Great Captain, Portugal.The Man, The National, Manchester Orchestra/Bad Books/Kevin Devine, Phosphorescent, Les Ssavy Fav.

The Travelling Band on the main stage would be nice - they kept popping up on backing vocals this year I noticed.

[Maoster]

If I could just choose one act it would have to be Sufjan Stevens - he would be perfect.

Arcade Fire are now way to big (and commercially minded) to play EOTR IMO.

[ethereal]

Kristin Hersh or Polly Harvey acoustic

[shoebox]

The Decemberists is the big ask from me at the moment, but I'm still revelling in the memories of this year to give too much thought about next. They've never let me down in the past and I fully expect next year to be just as great.

[tom225]

I think The Horrors would be good, espicially after they cancelled one year, maybe We Are Scientists they would be good

[andy55]

The National

My Morning jacket

Eels (with full band)

Band of Horses

Mumford & Sons

Gomez

Robert Plant

Centro-Matic / South San Gabriel

Iron & Wine (with full band)

KT Tunstall

Eddie Vedder solo

[liarliar]

Uhm...

Frontier Ruckus

Andrew Bird

Decemberists

Besnard Lakes

Drive-By Truckers

To name a few...

Ll.

[wockey]

Beirut would be wonderful.

[Fat_Buddha]

I have no favourites and trust eotr to astound me anyway. However, come mid afternoon on the Saturday and Sunday I need something to wake me up and shake me out of some lethargy…………..Ozomatli would fit that particular bill.

[Sipperana]

Bill Callahan

Sufjan Stevens - would be the ultimate coup

eels - they've tried before, maybe this time?

Built To Spill

And So I Watch You From Afar

Jeffrey Lewis - time he was back again

Let's Wrestle

...and is it too early to start the perennial campaign for Half Man Half Biscuit?

[Sipperana]

Just listening to Olafur Arnalds (Olof's cousin), which reminds me they should get (as well as him) Nils Frahm, a mesmeric pianist and lovely chap, who I saw supporting Shearwater.

Oh yes, and Shearwater...

[eagles69]

The National

My Morning jacket

Eels (with full band)

Band of Horses

Mumford & Sons

Gomez

Robert Plant

Centro-Matic / South San Gabriel

Iron & Wine (with full band)

KT Tunstall

Eddie Vedder solo

[eagles69]

Such a gr8 line-up this year so same again would b gr8

But new bands I would love Mumford and Sons, My Morning Jacket, The National, Menomena, Seasick Steve, Kimya Dwason, The Eels, Avi Buffalo, Fanfarlo, Blind Pilot, Ra Ra Riot and Ladyhawk.

[angelofharlem]

I would love it if any of the following played next year:

My Morning Jacket

Drive-By Truckers

The Stranglers

Gomez

Hayseed Dixie

Mostly Autumn

[Olivedal 1904]

Deerhunter

My Morning Jacket

Les Savy Fav

Built to Spill

And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead

Not likely perhaps but if these were to be booked I would make the trip again.

[ljsawyer]

Asking for the 100th time ():

Dungen

Headlining the Big Top!

Go on then, who do you wanna see in 2011?

for me i'd love to see arcade fire (probably too big now), band of horses, bon iver, bright eyes (with their reformation it's a possibility), Sufjan Stevens (I heard sofia wants him(at the festival)), the hold steady, the rural alberta advantage, james mercer in any of his incarnations, Spoon, Wintersleep, Menomena, Iron & Wine, My Morning Jacket, Decemeberists, Right Away Great Captain, Portugal.The Man, The National, Manchester Orchestra/Bad Books/Kevin Devine, Phosphorescent, Les Ssavy Fav.

[Infinite Jest]

Already mentioned: Eels, Beirut, Shins, Mogwai, Drive-by Truckers, Andrew Bird, Fanfarlo, Flight of the Conchords (in the programme, the comedy director named them as one of her ultimate dream acts, so maybe - but they're probably too big).

Also: Antony and the Johnsons (though maybe wrong for an outdoor festival?); Jonathan Richman, Wild Beasts, Murder By Death, The Clean, Lambchop (full band, not Kurt solo), Patti Smith...

Arcade Fire are surely too big. I suspect the National might be too big (wish they'd gotten them this year, they seem to have really taken off in the UK this year).

I like Mumford and Sons, but I'm not sure I want them playing EoTR again. They're a bit too mainstream now (is that a really terrible thing to say? Maybe, but I like the fact that EoTR is mostly a niche audience of serious music fans who champion obscure bands and care about the music: I don't want a few big name bands playing, that bring in a bunch of casuals who'll talk really loudly through the early bands...)

[geofelgie]

I'll echo these wishes:

The National

Decemberists

My Morning Jacket

Sufjan Stevens

Eels

Band of Horses

And add:

The Jayhawks

Danny and the champions of the world

Unkle bob

Jon Windle

Dead Western

David Ford

Buffalo Tom

But I'm also one of those who has ultimate faith it'll be brilliant whatever.....in 2009 the line-up closely resembled my record collection and it was fab....this year I knew very few of the bands when announced yet it was equally fab!!!!

As for returnees......I would love to see Guillemots, Leif vollebekk, Loney Dear, Phosphorescent, Deer Tick, Two Gallants, Willard Grant Conspiracy, Duke and the King, Tallest Man on Earth, Joe Gideon and the Shark, The Twilight Sad......... back again

Wow, how did that turn into such a long list!?!?!?!?!?!
