All 3 Headliners now confirmed

[rexclark]

How is it closed minded to say it would be a bad booking to book an act that your closest rivals had this year? Yes they're popular but do Rockness really want to just be copying TITP?

[Paul ™]

They want to sell tickets, they will book the acts that they think will do that...

[rexclark]

So in the space of a day we've lost Daft Punk and potentially gained Kasabian? Load of pish.

[Elbear]

Rob Da Bank said that Daft Punk aren't doing any shows in 2011

[Paul ™]

Did he say this recently ?

I remember him saying it months ago, but just assumed with the latest talk of them playing it had changed.

[Elbear]

He said it today

[rachbon]

kasabian? f**k sake.

[Paul ™]

Out of the 4 that IOW announce, they are the most likely I reckon

Paul, between your kasabien prophecy and now the daft news, your cheering me up no end. I'm away to listen to joy division mate.

[Paul ™]

haha sorry mate.. just putting out some info from online.

Surprised me too the DP story, I was convinced they were playing

Anyway, Kasabian ain't confirmed yet for IOW, and it'a not a definate we are getting one of their acts at Rockness..

It's still very much a guessing game for everyone (apart from Jim King )

[stu150]

I actually feel like someone ripped by heart out and stomped on it - was sooooo looking forward to seeing Daft Punk finally. Guess I'll either have to travel or wait

[adustlandfairytale]

What whoah whoah whoah!

Where did these Kasabian rumours come from?

And no Daft Punk??

WIT!

Im refuse to believe that daft punk arnt playing, i was so sure. Anyone got Soma Records on facebook? Today at about 4ish, they posted this

"humble beginnings can lead to big things! In 2011, Soma will be 20 years young, stay tuned for news " along with a picture of a gold daft punk vinyl.....

[adustlandfairytale]

Seemingly due to be announced tomorrow or Thursday for IOW, and we can expect one of their headliners up at Rockness. Though Pulp are not headlining IOW, here's hoping we get them instead of T

[Paul ™]

Not 100%, but going on the rumours they are due to be announced.. though am doubting it aswell as I would rather they didn't play Rockness if we were to get them

[rexclark]

I recon Daft Punk must be building some kind of spaceship that floats over the crowd while they play for the tour. It's the only explanation of them not being ready next year.

[theampersanddevil]

Listen guys it could be worse, don't AEG sometimes promote tiesto?

Ha ha, can open, worms everywhere!

[Paul ™]

And just announced the Justin Bieber tour

[Chiefski]

Has it been said anywhere that Rockness will actually be sharing a headliner with IOW? I know The Strokes did last year but that was the first time it happened was it not? If those are the four headline acts for IOW I dont really see any of them playing Rockness, Pulp will still be more likely for T imo.

[Paul ™]

Prodigy in 2009

It's not been said in public by Rockness/Jim etc no, just assumptions and other info that has been mentioned elsewhere
