Band/Act Watch Thread Who's touring July 2014.

[Matt42]

Bastille and Daughter are playing Optimus Alive on July 12th. Doubt Daughter will play T again this year though.

[Matt42]

OP updated again

[Matt42]

As you'l see, the rock werchter lineup is the most fleshed out of any July festival, so if you want to see who's probably playing T it's the best place to look.

It seems like they could share alot of each others lineup this year; seeing as in 2013 there barely shared any...

[Matt42]

Kings Of Leon removed as it looks like they are doing IOW, and it'l be their only festival appearances.

Which leaves our headliners too...

Arctic Monkeys (confirmed)

Biffy Clyro

Calvin Harris

Eminem

discuss.

(they will be re added if they are not announced tonight)

[Matt42]

The prodigy are more likely to co-headline than Calvin Harris

[Ukulelelad92]

they are in the sub/could headline section. So technically the headline section.

[DomDom1984]

What basis are we judging the likelihood of Calvin Harris not being as likely as The Prodigy on?

[Matt42]

Could add example to the sub section and, of mice and men aswell as franz ferdinand to the nailed on lot

[Ukulelelad92]

Franz are all but guaranteed. T favourites, haven't played since 09. Active that weekend, said last year when asked about T: ' next year looks written in the stars'

Is there anything solid on Lily Allen playing T? As far as I was aware, she's just said she's playing Glastonbury.

[kingcrawler]

Rudimental, Lana Del Rey, White Lies and St. Vincent announced for Northside festival in June. I think the first three will definitely play T.

[DomDom1984]

Wouldn't be surprised if St. Vincent got a low Tuts slot as well actually.

[TheGaffer]

[harryomatic]

Could see Lana Del Rey making a pretty good Tuts headliner. Not for me personally, but a good alternative against a rock act like Biffy/Arctics on the main stage and a dance act on the NME.

updated OP

[kingcrawler]

Looks like Jack Johnson can be ruled out

[harryomatic]

Wouldn't see her as big enough, but certainly an evening act for Tuts or NME.

[foolee]

Paul Weller playing Warwick Castle on 11th July, Friday of T. So say he's probably a stick on for Sat/Sun, either headlining Tuts or high NME/Main

EDIT: When I say NME I mean Radio 1 stage, keep forgetting the name change.

Pixies and James announced for two gigs at Castlefield Bowl in Manchester on the 10th and 11th of July with Royal Blood and Starsailor supporting.

[kingcrawler]

I can see Pixies headlining Tuts, probably on the Saturday.

[foolee]

Can see all of the above playing! James mainstage Saturday/Sunday and Pixies for Tuts as kingcrawler has said. Maybe even Radio 1 stage opposite Eminem or Calvin if they are the headliners that is.

Wouldn't mind a Pixies into Biffy Clyro mainstage Friday however!
