Lineup 2015

[Gucci Piggy]

Thoughts on the chances of Finch playing? Reformed and with a new album out at the end of last year and with promises of being back in 2015

He'd knock it out of the park, but he'll be performing loads in Leeds through the Summer so I'm not sure the demand will be there.

Terrible.

Where do people reckon for peace, sub NME?

If they're there thats where the would/should be. Would go perfectly into a Haim or Jamie T headline set

[Bisque]

BMTH are no where near as popular as him

To the general masses yes, not necessarily at a festival that attracts people that like rock music.

[Yellow_Fellow]

I think, with everything else discussed here, that comment was made in the context of R&L

[Gucci Piggy]

But Jake Bugg is also more suited to the R&L demographic than BMTH. So that just compounds the fact that he'd get a higher slot.

[kemosabe]

Does anyone know how Jake Buggs set went last year? Is he likely to be bumped up again in a few years time!

[tyranicide]

I think you me at six could have subbed last year, and bring me the horizon could sub this year, but they probably won't and if they do play I think theyll be 3rd of NME headline. Its just that if they sub I won't be shocked.

I was forced to see him last year because we were in a good place at the main stage and wanted to stay there for the Arctic monkeys and I that opinion was shared by a lot of people I spoke to around me. However he wasn't actually as bad as we thought he would be

Me and my friend turned up as lightning bolt was being played, we were both high as a kite and we thought the crowd was tiny and inactive.

Jake even turned to his drummer at one point and gave him a "wtf" look. It was awful

Chvrches and Bombay delivered two of the best sets of the weekend on the NME while he was playing and I can imagine a lot of their potential audiences would have just kept their spot at the main stage. I think there were a lot of fans who wanted to see both (All of my friend group at least) and I hope FR are able to avoid a similar clash this year. However I can see a Vaccines/Peace clash or something like that happening.

Are you sure about that? Because where I was stood is seemed pretty lively, take Broken as an example.

Yeah I was desperate to see bombay but most of my friends weren't massively into them and we thought it would just be better to keep our spot because we were right at the front. But I managed to see them at Earls Court in December so it worked out fine

But he was high as a kite!!!

[the wonderwhy]

Not as high as Alex Turner though.

It was pretty grim from where I was standing.

To be fair, I didn't watch much of the set and sort of half watched him as I was heading over to Band of Skulls.

[dentalplan]

Wondering why I had a missed call from him.

[Gucci Piggy]

Wondering why I had a missed call from him.

Don't get it.

He wrote a song asking why someone only calls him when they're high. I highly doubt he does the same thing to other people, otherwise he wouldn't be confused enough to write an entire song about it.

Smh.

[dentalplan]

Think you need to listen to the song again m8.

[Gucci Piggy]

Fucking hell you're right. And the video, too, makes that obvious.

I need a lie down.

Think I'm just still perplexed he named the song 'Why'd You (why did you) Only Call Me When You're (you are) High?' as opposed to 'Why D'you (why do you) Only Call Me When You're (you are) High?'.

Weirdo tbh.

You noticed that despite being high as a kite? Sounds like bollocks to me.

[Mezhyp1]

I saw Jake Bugg the year before last in the tent and it was absolutely tremendous, he's a lot better in a smaller packed atmosphere I think

[mrtourette]

Yeah the first time I saw him was in the FR tent after Don Broco, in 2012 I think. He was pretty good, although someone farting in a bucket would've sounded good following the shower of shit that was on before.

Was that the same year Alt-J played FR? I thought for some reason they were on before he was that year?
