T in the Park 2013

[Chiefski]

As noted in the previous thread, and so that this section doesnt get cluttered with random T threads, a thread for next years festival, lets keep it on topic guys...

Stone Roses mark two for next year then, with my guess being the Stone Roses again but with a new line up as Reni & Squire will quit again.

The problem is as always there will be new users who don't look through the pages looking for advice, and that the forums become clustered with similar topics. Not a dig at anyone as we've all been newbies at one point, but does get a bit repetitive.

Anyway....haven't booked my ticket yet, if there are early-bird tickets left when I next get paid then I will try and use the deposit.

With the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and The Killers being annoucned for Big Day Out in Oz/NZ then I'd guess they are two of the front-runners for a headline spot, with Biffy Clyro headlining the Friday with their 10th T appearance. As noted on previous posts the 'theme' could be 'Scottish', so would expect to see Paolo and Franz Ferdinand in fairly high up spots with The Proclaimers and Travis perhaps performing aswell.

copied over from then old thread.....

I think this ticket deposit scheme is a sign of desperation from the promoters. T's had a lot of bad press recently, I reckon this will be T20 will be a very important year for them in terms of where they go next. I actually thought the layout was much better, the sunset strip idea is good and there was plenty going on on Thursday. For me they need 2 real blue chip headliners. The stone roses where a masive coup but that still wasnt enough to convince a lot of people (regulars included).

Main Stage

Green Day/Biffy Clyro

Lady Gaga/Bloc Party

David Bowie/Rihanna

NME

Plan B/Dizzee Rascal

QOTSA/Jack White

Chemical Brothers/LMFAO

King Tuts

Underworld/Maximo Park

Franz Ferdinand/Sub Focus

Afrojack/The Charlatans

Slam Tent

Richie Hawtin

Justice

Jeff Mills

If they announced something of that calibre with stage splits quicker I reckon that'd sell out no bother.

^Bowie isn't gonna play, he's reitred due to health problems.

[gazza_20]

Bit strange when he says he doesn't want to be one dimensional and then goes on about wanting stone roses mark 2.

I'd take The Stone Roses next year at T without a doubt. I did say about this a while ago though but know one really caught on to it so I predicted without them.

Bowie probably is wishful thinking but I think the lineup NEEDS some sort of once in a lifetime 'legend' playing on the Sunday. T's demograhic makes that a challenge though. I think Prince could pull it off also.

Ellis words about stone roses mk 2 are fair enough, everytime a UK band has reformed from the 90's he's gone straight for them (the verve, pulp, blur) we will just have to wait to see who decides to do the same this year coming.

Has there ever been a festival have the same headliner 2 years on the trot? That would come accross very desperate to say the least.

Green day( can see a English stadium tour and Scottish fest)

Killers

Radiohead(will be around if rumoured Glastonbury comes of)

[gazza_20]

That's not going to happen, by Stone Roses mk 2 he's talking about a band similar to them that appeals to both younglings & pensioners, not just bringing back the same band again.

Dont think he is actually meaning The Stone Roses again, just that type of marquee act. "a band loved by music lovers both young and old" sticks out to me, for that kind of thing you are looking at act that would have atleast been about 10-15 years ago, and still have some revelancy, so a "legend" act could be possible with that respects. Unsure of who's kicking about in that field though, theres not many bands that size outside The Smiths that could reform also. I'd like Paul McCartney myself (I know, we've had this argument ) but a set full of Beatles classics would appeal to most ages.

[gazza_20]

I think everyone but Gazza figured that out

Oasis, that's gonna happen sooner or later and I do find it funny when they were about they were written off but since then broke up they are back in favour and people openly say they like them, maybe REM but they were on a huge decline and it's a recent break up. You've also got acts like Green Day & Radiohead who fit the bill of old & new but they never broke up tho.

[chickenfire]

In terms of getting a big reformed band Blur would sort of work.

Played a handful of gigs since reforming. Owe T a full headline set, could be possible although they do change their minds every 5 minutes about playing more gigs or not.

It work would. Radiohead also would work, I'm not fan but I can see it. Whereas, i don't think The Killers fit the bill for that
