T in the Park 2013

[mrtourette]

Mumford and Rihanna headlining the NME is certainly unrealistic.

[gazza_20]

There are far too many real bands who play real instruments in these predictions and not enough DJs and autotune "pop" merchants. It's just not realistic. I would snap up a ticket if I thought it was anything like your prediction harryomatic, particularly if it was Blur instead of the Killers.

[harryomatic]

I know, but I like to live in hope. No doubt 2/3rds of that would be replaced by stuff I think is not worthy of the slot they get.

[harryomatic]

Trying to come up with more mainstreamy acts that might play. Emile Sande, Connor Maynard, Marina and thr Diamonds? Maybe the xx or Jake Bugg?

EDIT: Nero also working on a new album just now. They could return.

just to put in out there guys, on the muse forums, i had read this this before which is why i was sure enough to say no to Muse playing T or IOW too. I have said on this page not totally unrealistic given no Scottish date but according to the guy who does PinkPop festival said they are not playing any festivals, it's purely a stadium tour, in which case I guess of Scotland was on it'd be in this. I can see a further announcement for a hometown Devon gig or and even possibly a 3rd night on the tuesday maybe at the emirates when these sell out. I'd expect them to fly.

I do think that pretty much gives them a very good chance of playing next year and to be fair to T, 4 years gap is pretty good.

3 years, but after Kasabian I think if just about settle for that.

Gazza have you been cheating on us? I thought we were exclusive!

[harryomatic]

sorry dude, I mean't 2014 by that. Was saying that due to PinkPop saying no fests that it'll be year after and with no scottish outdoor stage, they don't have a date to see them without travelling a bloody long way down to manchester for it.

I reckon Arctic Monkeys could well join them too.

[Paul ™]

You put them on a line up just up this page though?

[gazza_20]

[Paul ™]

I've since then changed that.

[gazza_20]

No need to explain, we know you change your predictions alot

[gazza_20]

on another note, no confirmation in my account yet although ticketmaster customer service guy did tell me i was apart of the full payment/refund deposit bullshit aka-they dunno what they're doing and that it got taken friday so i would think 2mora at the latest it'll show. my bank don't even show it's going to come out

[Red Day]

R/e Muse, I spoke with some of the crew when I was waiting to go into the SECC and asked about the possibility of a Glastonbury slot. The guy said there was no plans to play festivals and it was solely a stadium tour in 2013. He did say Murrayfield was the venue in Scotland and I've no reason to disbelieve him. I would guess it'll get announced soon. Be surprised (but happy) if they turned up at T

[gazza_20]

Ah right, I get you. That makes pretty good sense, do some festivals in 2014 to end the touring cycle for the album.

[Red Day]

It'd be kinda cool if they did Murrayfield on the Wed before T. I'm travelling up on the wed so could go to the gig before T haha

[gazza_20]

Hope that works out for you Gazz

[Red Day]

Probably right. Be a fair bit of gear to set up for one night only. Probably give stadium shows a miss in any case. Seen them at SECC last month and have a load of gigs in 2013 already

[gazza_20]

Just to say, checked my ticketmaster account and the money says it's taken, whe n it'll appear in my account fuck knows, more importantly, when do i get my refund back, grrr. But on a side note, the car park pass is £18.50, can anyone tell me how much the booking fee tens to be? i remember seeing in previous years a total fee of about £20.50 inc booking fee? and do they make you pay an extra postage fee for that on top of the ticket?

[Gingo]

I'd take something like this, not totally unrealistic either IMO:

Green Day

Mumford & Sons

The Prodigy

Biffy Clyro

Rihanna

Plan B

Lady GaGa

Paramore

The Chemical Brothers

[harryomatic]

Slightly more realistic lineup:

Main Stage

Green Day - Stereophonics

Rihanna - The Black Keys

The Killers - Mumford & Sons

Radio One NME Stage

Plan B - some pop shit

Biffy Clyro - Nero

Prodigy or similar - The Vaccines

King Tuts Wah Wah Tent

Justice - Crystal Castles

Bloc Party - Emile Sande

Jack White - The XX

Refund was in the bank today so called up Ticketmaster and paid the full amount. £403 kinda hurt a little bit.
