She's been on a lot of people's wish lists for a long time. Ooh, it would be very welcome! She's local to the festival too (if that makes a bit of difference).

teamcampesinos! Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 So, End of the Road tweeted and put on Facebook a link to the new LCD Soundystem - 'Christmas Will Break Your Heart.' Is it too optimistic to hope that is a very blatant coup for one of their headliners? Would be an absolutley massive coup considering it looks as if they are headlining Coachella and Primavera if this reunion malarkey comes about. Couldn't think of a better sub for them than John Grant either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoebox Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 John Grant is very much EOTR Woods Stage headliner size now as well. Can't see him subbing anyone now. I would love LCD, but really cannot see it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see him subbing anyone now. That's what I would have thought until I saw he wasn't headlining Field Day. Second from top there would put him the same size as previous subs Django Django, Patti Smith and The Horrors. I do agree headlining is not out the question.

Then again, I was always under the impression LCD Soundsystem were notably bigger in the states? Could easily see past Coachella headliners - which are smaller in the UK - such as Phoenix comfortably headlining EotR. Even so, if they are being mooted as Glastonbury Other Stage headliners, I'd say that places them in the same bracket as the Flaming Lips and Sigur Ros? Maybe. Almost definitely clutching at straws here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True enough, but there's also a demographic question. Probably not "hipster" enough to headline Field Day, more suited to headlining for an EOTR crowd? Also PJ Harvey being something more of a coup, would mean she could be nothing other than headliner? I dunno. I just think playing Hammersmith pushed him into that headliner category. With regards to LCD, do not read too much into EOTR sharing their Christmas song. Pretty much everyone with any connection or interest in music shared that song. I really can't see them playing, but would love to be proved wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamcampesinos! Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Hmm, all these are fair points. I suppose we should hopefully expect a first announcement not too far away! In the meanwhile I'll clutch on to all the straws for the bands I expect as I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoebox Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Big fan of Yeasayer here, and they've got a new one due. Stick them on my wishlist, along with all the aforementioned (except Radiohead) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molasses Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I'm surprised no one has mentioned Slowdive yet as a headliner. They'd be absolutely glorious on the Woods stage. Or maybe Minor Victories (the Slowdive/Mogwai/Editors supergroup that have an album coming out in 2016). Other's I'd love: The Twilight Sad, Ezra Furman, Merucry Rev, Deerhunter, Dilly Dally, The National Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't Primavera tells us anything other than certain bands/artists are playing live this year that we might have forgotten about. I'll be very surprised if Peej plays anywhere other than Field Day in the UK. Reckon that's probably an exclusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
