Bloc Party?

You would have them under The Cure surely if they were?

Do you have any info on them Neil or you just know they are not under Foo's?

Also can you clear something up, someone said a while ago more than once that at least last time, maybe the time before as well that you had no confirmation about Bloc Party playing or you know, info that you have on others?

Both the Strokes Pulp have a history with the festival and I think FR wanted to give them a headline slot, while they may not be as big a draw as they used to, having them as a co-headline allowed them to do it. Plus Pulp were quite expensive from what I heard so were given a bigger slot than sub, as well as the fact the aren't available this year.

Bloc Party will be around for the next few years at least, don't have a real reunion factor, and they're comeback could go either way. There doesn't seem any real need to give them a headline slot when there's already three big name headliners in place.
