Friday other stage opener

[dentalplan]

Mr. Tembo singing a song about Damon Albarn?

[math125]

I don't think anyone has mentioned Franz Ferdinand yet either?

[math125]

I reckon James could easily own that slot playing to a Glastonbury crowd.

[dentalplan]

The Enemy would get booed off.

[Superscally]

Not kept that updated with this, but who are the favourites at the moment?

I'd welcome Franz or Foos (even if they are unlikely)... But I hope all this talk of James is bollocks. I saw them last year supporting The Killers at Wembley, and they were so bad. The singer started getting stoppy because nobody knew their songs, and then they got booed a bit... I didn't enjoy it.

What are the chances of it being a modern pop/rap act like Tinie Tempah?

Just a few other names that I dunno if they've been mentioned, but I think would do well in that spot:

The Fratellis, Madness, Paul Weller, The Enemy

[sinhala]

Could be Peace - they are pretty hot at the moment.

Prob be someone lame like FF

Right, think I've sussed it. Upcoming comeback gig. In the country at the time. Warm up shows planned. Friends of the festival. It can only be...

The Libertines

[A13]

That's probably because people at a Killers gigs only have the Killers, Coldplay and Mumford and c**ts in their record collection and wouldn't know a good band if one bit them on the cock.

[stuartbert two hats]

that tba on the john peel is intriguing. only 15 minute set up time.

30 mins is the standard set up time on other, isn't it? so that's normal between the tba and blondie.

[FloorFiller]

Hmm, enough time to set up a bass, a keyboard, a drum kit and a microphone. Future Islands??

[Zoo Music Girl]

Don't. Just don't. I can't allow myself to think it's a feasible possibility.

[jackarmy]

It could be the Foo Fighters? Recording new material, and recently posted a message saying they could show up in the UK at any time for a gig.

A13, you're really just a little ray of sunshine skipping joyfully around the forum dropping little nuggets of goldplated comments hither and tither.

Future islands must be one of the tbc

[Gnomicide]

CSS? Is the singer from them not married to one of The Klaxons? Could Klaxons play?

[Slugworth]

Datarock! Never in a million years, but a bit of Fa-Fa-Fa to kickstart the festival would be great.

[morph100]

Is the 45 minute slot a clue to anything or is that about the same amount of time beady eye had? guess most albums are around 45 minutes so could be anyone playing either a new album or an old album in full or it could be nothing to do with it at all.....
