retromoz Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 This is great news. Along with Sleater Kinney reforming, basically this year is gonna be the year my 22 year old self (from '97) had been dreaming about. All we need now is Six. by Seven to be number 1.

zahidf Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Not been officially announced yet but Mick was tweeting people yesterday that they're playing London and Glasgow dates in June with possibly more to follow, and a couple of other people near to the band have confirmed it. June 20th Glasgow barrowlands apparently. Supporting mogwai is the rumour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamstonite Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Got to be sleater-kinney headlining surely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick07 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Sufjan will headline I think especially as new album out. Matthew E White, Father John Misty should play. War On Drugs are a guaranteed headliner if playing Electric Picnic. Decemberists wouldn't get me jumping for joy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Sufjan doesn't play outdoor festivals, does he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamcampesinos! Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 War On Drugs are a guaranteed headliner if playing Electric Picnic. Guaranteed perhaps, but surely they aren't big enough to headline? Far more likely to be second from top or headlining the Garden Stage, I'd say. How about Hot Chip headlining after Alexis Taylor's solo performance last year? They're about and doing festivals and seem like the type of band the festival would want to bump up to headliner... I could see PJ Harvey doing it too, with it essentially being her local festival and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Guaranteed perhaps, but surely they aren't big enough to headline? Far more likely to be second from top or headlining the Garden Stage, I'd say. Second from top of Green Man main stage last year, only behind Mercury Rev doing Deserter's Songs, and that was before the end of year acclaim.

wolfamongwolves Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I would be very shocked if sufjan played, can't see that happening to be fair. War on drugs yeah I think they could definitely headline . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splainc Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Got to be sleater-kinney headlining surely! New album is excellent. Could be a new band for the amount of energy and guts on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Apparently Carrie's filming more Portlandia in the summer so S-K won't be playing live much for now - suppose it doesn't prevent them maybe playing something at the end of that period...

shoebox Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 A comment on the 2014 highlights video they've just posted on Facebook said first announcement won't be as late as last year (19th Feb) but they're not sure exactly when it will be. So, hopefully looking at 2/3 weeks then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
