Tame Impala

[Brad2434]

So it was announced earlier in January that there will be a new Tame Impala album out this year, any chance of them being back at Glastonbury? Or am I being too optimistic with them only playing in 2013...

[TomViolence]

I'd like to think they'll be there. They've been announced for a few festivals already so they're definitely about. Also, they played T and Latitude last year so those 2 are probably ruled out for them this year. If they do play I want them on the JP as they don't seem to work as well on open air stages

JPT would be spot on. Seen them 3 times on big stages. Pyramid, Other and Finsbury Park AM gig.

First one on pyramid was a bit lacklustre, the other two were great, but i still always thought it would sound much better in a tent

Setlist they can put together from the 2 albums (+ half full glass of wine) is awesome.

Will be interesting to see if they can keep quality up with the new album, i think the suggestion is its going to go 'more electronic'

[DGrant261]

Headlining JPT would be perfect for them

What I was going to say but you beat me

Yeah it's time for them to headline JP, and depending on the headliner that night I might go and see them if it's the case!

bump bump bump

Huge gap in their tour dates from mid june to august, so theres every chance. Fingers crossed anyway! Going to the Glasgow gig in September anyway but would much prefer to see them at Glasto (in the JP tent)

[WS_Jack_III]

i'd like to see them again for sure. Gonna listen to the new song in a minute.

[Vanderlyle]

Ah good. I quite like that last album. Didn't know they had a new album and tour coming up.

[WS_Jack_III]

New song is decent. At first i thought it was a bit bland but i really like the journey it goes on in the 8 minutes.

agreed. had it on 3-4 times this morning (heard it once on 6 music too!). was grooving along by the third listen.

[tiffpietiff]

Fucking love it.

JP headliners, please.

[FloorFiller]

headlining JP seems fairly likely - on the (i'm assuming) Kanye day seems like a good fit

[TomViolence]

Fucking love it.

JP headliners, please.

Agreed. They're soo much better in a tent

Been campaigning for them to headline John Peel Stage for ages but it's now looking like I could actually have two or three Pyramid headliners I wanna see.

Think I'm gonna need a William's Green Launch Party for a Hail Mary on this one.

Oh hell, I could totally see them as one of the two William's Green acts on the Thursday. That'd be swell.

[FloorFiller]

i'd love them to be one of the William's Green acts. that'd be one inevitable nightmare clash solved!

[Titters2]

Love these so much. I'd prefer a sundown slot at The Park, rather tan a dark JPT...

[dentalplan]

They're a bit big for that now.

To say we've all been furiously predicting these lot; they still don't have any June/July dates in Europe.

Yeah I just noticed that myself this morning. I still think they'll do some as it's not like they have any dates between mid-June and July but you'd have thought something would have been announced by now.

See this has worried me now

If they are not there i'l be beyond surprised... but they have no june/july dates in Europe so it's not totally unlikely for them not to be there :|

[DGrant261]

Going back a few months I had them down to be doing R&L and Glasto. Still think Glasto is on the cards but the lack of European summer shows in June/July surprises me a bit.

I was really scared Bestival were gonna get them as an exclusive, since they have done that before with touring bands.

Is bestival the only UK festival they are confirmed for yet? They aren't doing rock werchter or any other festivals in Europe around glastonbury so yeah.. I'm worried

They're headlining End of the Road in the UK and also playing a host of August/September European festivals.
