But Kasabian are doing Hard Rock Calling this year so that might mean thats their big show for this year, and they could go anywhere next year. I dont know what people are on about here but yeah, I wouldnt see Kasabian even if they were at V this year

That's what there saying, kasabian do a big show in the summer and hard rock calling is that one, next year v could be that show.

Yeah but these threads go off topic all the time. What I was saying is I wouldnt see them even if they were this year, as I probably wont be getting a ticket next year unless there are acts more to my taste

I hope they do glasto, so I dont have to see them :P

Yeah cheers mate, I really want to do v next year as its on my door step but with that would miss it again.

I would miss V with that line up unless the headliner for the second stage were good, better than Beady Eye this year

I think V might get Kasabian or Mumford, maybe both if R&L don't get Mumford.

Well everyone knows my views on kasabian but it would be a good step in the right direction, getting them guitars out again rather than booty...

I actually think mumfords are good live and on record, but hey I think bjorks amazing.

I don't have a problem with how Mumford are in that respect, I just bloody hate their music, and Marcus Mumford's face.

I think if they don't go for two guitar bands, they might end up going all out pop, because if rawaudioinput is right, then R&L/V/T are going to have to pull out some big bands

I wouldnt want to go to T4 on the beach or summer sessions, yeah I like pop music but at the moment TDCC and Of Monsters and Men are two of my fave acts to listen too and I want to see at least one of them at V, and I dont think either would play T4OTB

I cant see V going all pop, I think they will stay one band one pop act for a bit. I cant see them going for a big dance act to headline main, they will keep that to second stage or arena but everywhere has to pull big acts out

Haha, not a problem. Have you ever been to V? I can't say I'd ever go back again although a day on whichever selected day it was has been decent twice but the price has now gone up to much for me to think a day ticket is worth it

I think V might get Kasabian or Mumford, maybe both if R&L don't get Mumford.

I'm under the impression Rawaudioinput that Mumford given the hints and idea's are quite likely on IOW's radar?

?

Yeah used to go every year from the lat 90s until a few years ago, used to be ideal really close by and even non festival friends and family used to go. The sort of people who wouldn't dream of going to places like Glastonbury, titp, reading etc etc.

Stopped as lineups were getting worse for my tastes and festivals getting more and more expensive so I was more selective. Like titp I used to go there every year aswel but as prices kept going up I was more selective. I used to do all the majors Glastonbury/v/titp/reading or Leeds every year and then download when that started.

I don't mind paying a bit more for v if the lineups matches up as I don't have travel costs and can nip back for proper food, showers etc etc.

Mumford aren't one of the clues, they're good clues, but try harder ;)

I'm not trying at Mumford, as I said below, there was a couple suggestions for it - the HUGE tag drove me away from there. They are massive right now, but huge - as in Bruce, Coldplay, Foo's, Muse - nope

What hints have mumfords given? I think they are on everyones radar

mumford gave nothing, people on here, not myslef but a few seem to have gussed at mumford at IOW but given the stature of the HUGE they are going for, I wasn't sure Mumford fit it. I'd also say Biffy Clyro would not be your option either, there was a 3 of The Prodigy, Kanye and Mumford by Matt - I don't even know whether The Prodigy would go under that.

Ah that nipping back for showers etc wouldn't bother me, I'm a kind of I'm there, I'm the person.

But yeah that's fair enough, they did back then have some decent lineups, as did Reading back in the day, TITP did. Download if it's your thing had some great one's too.

How did you rate TITP from going? - I'm guessing you enjoyed it if you went every year? The only major one I've got left to do no is TITP this year. I've touched the rest but none moreso than Leeds but Glasto will eclipse that by a fair bit I'd imagine

Loved it, for atmosphere I would say only Glastonbury beats it. Although this might of changed by now as its been a few years since I've been, I think 2008 was my last one or it could of been 2009.

I used to like the mix of lineups there which was like a mash up of v and readings best bits. I actually think the lineups not to shabby this year, I don't think it's as bad as the titp thread says anyway.

Overall though the crowd are fantastic, first time I was thinking the old scots might have a problem with the English(although I'm half scot)but it was quite the opposite.

If I wasn't doing werchter I might have bitten for a titp this year.

I cant really see myself ever going to Reading or Leeds unless 30 Second To Mars were on, then I would take my girlfriend as she wants to see them. I like the undercard more of R&L than the headliners, but I wouldnt pay the full price to see just the undercard but my taste 'is limited'

I see T as similar to V but 3 days and getting some bigger acts, like Swedish House Mafia twice in a few years. If I had enough time and money I would maybe see about doing T or Glasto another year but I wont make a point of going to all the big fests, I would just go if I liked the line up

you're under the impression mumford are quite likely, but you're not actually suggesting mumford?

.....................okay

What hints have mumfords given? I think they are on everyones radar

These are hints given by a guy who met the IOW boss for who might play next year.

There is one act you might have to get ready for.

Some people think this act could headline but John thinks they're wrong. Although putting an act after them could be a bit silly, or a bit of a protege.

I picture this booking could sound surreal.

A country band but not really.

There are bands at titp that would never play v, that's why I think it's a mix of both of them.

sorry mate, the impression should have been more of a question than a statement.

but they do fit in with the while country but not really country.

i couldn't really scale the get ready for I don't think, and for the one he said are not headers in his view but might look strange not being, only Biffy Clyro came then.

The surreal one I couldn't really work out.

Who are you're suggestions?

So people think they could headline but John thinks they wouldnt? To me that doesnt point to Mumfords as I would have thought he would have wanted them to headline

I dont think Mumfords would be surreal

A country band maybe, but after all them clues I think it points towards an older band, with the surreal bit, like people wouldnt expect IoW to get them
