As long as Pains of Being Pure... are there I won't mind to much.

Pretty suprised to see Yuck low down on the NME, was thinking with the blog hype et. al. we could see them bag a reasonably high up spot on the FR 3rd headliner or even subbing.

TPOBPAH sub headlining on the MCR night would be utter bliss and moving into the Horrors afterwards would be a brilliant way to spend the night.

Ringo DeathStarr midway down the FR would be perfect as well

Just checked the line up & didn't see these. Very sorry if they have already been self confirmed, didn't see them on the line up either but I've had a couple...

Fiction were ok supporting the Klaxons.

Summer Camp were rather good supporting Kele.

Transfer too, saw them support Futureheads & was surprised that the crowd knew the songs!

Could imagine them of FR stage.

Active Child and Crocodiles both supported White Lies so I wouldn't be surprised if either of those played.

Wavves often tour with Best Coast, plus I think the lead singers are together so Wavves could play on the Sunday

Avi Buffalo played the stage last year, but are doing some gigs in July and playing Latitude so if they are still in the UK then they could play again

No reason to play, but no reason not to:

Caribou

The Hold Steady (unlikely but would be good)

Silversun Pickups

The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart

Slow Club

Crystal Fighters

The Airborne Toxic Event

My Morning Jacket

The Boxer Rebellion

Explosions In The Sky

Godspeed You! Black Emperor

Would be great, but next to impossible:

The Church

Mew

Yo La Tengo

They Might Be Giants

This years headliners seem really weak and uninspired. The reason the FR is usually so good is because it has more diverse bands.

Personally I'd have Dinosaur Jr, Bright Eyes and Mos Def headlining, or Killing Joke and Mogwai.
