Festival Republic Stage

[Banana Co]

Any ideas on headliners and other bands appearing over the stage?

My guesses:

HEADLINERS:

Mystery Jets

Wu Lyf

Delphic

Sleigh Bells

Scroobius Pip

OTHERS:

Spector

Dan Mangan

The Antlers

Ben Howard

Friends

Jamie N Commons

[JWC126]

Could see Howler getting a high spot.

[The Mean Bean]

Dinosaur Jr. to headline? Basically my ideal situation.

[Bisque]

Mystery Jets, despite playing main stage '10, might be a good shout for headliners. Would like to see Summer Camp, Fiction, Dog Is Dead, King Charles, Transfer, Stage Coach (not that I'd end up seeing them).

[Vieuphoria]

Mark Lanegan.

Was speaking to Bobby D of Don Broco last Tuesday and he was telling me hopefullydon Broco'll try and do every festival so if they get asked back ( to be honest why wouldn't they be asked back after that stellar set last year)

They should be on FR

And silversun pickups anybody?

[dirtymookie]

naaah, definitely Mark Lanegan.

[mrtourette]

I've heard that Mark Lanegan's new album is a belter, hopefully it'll be on the doormat waiting for me when I get home. I'd love for him to play.

The Cure?

[Vieuphoria]

trololololo

[mrtourette]

Yes please! I'm annoyed all the standing has gone for the Shepards Bush date and I really want to see him again.

Nah put Lanegan on same time as Kasabian or Foos.... i'm in. Got tickets to his Bristol date.... so excited.

[jump]

I'm more worried if he would be up against Refused more than anyone else.

[VCK]

Would be nice having Happy Mondays headline as long as they don't clash with Foos or Kasabian.

Maybe Mark Lanegan, Graham Coxon or Bat For Lashes to be one of the bigger FR headliners? Otherwise got to imagine Howler, Spector, Joy Formidable (possible headline but I reckon sub), Grimes (although really hope she gets an early slot on NME), DZ Deathrays, Alabama Shakes (although prob on NME), Canterbury, Toy, Future of the Left, Wolf Gang, Niki & The Dove, LaFaro and Exit International.

^Would of thought Wolf Gang would be too big for FR now even as a headliner.

The Joy Formidable are way too big even to headline, next time they play (probably next year) they'll be near the top of the NME/R1 tent.
