Today Phoenix announced their tour dates.

Jun 29, Vida Festival - Spain

Jun 30, Garorock Festival - France

I think I would be dreaming if they were one of the remaining acts to announce for Sunday since Saturday is full already.

Please god NO!

Ohh nevermind then. I only knew of their presentation in Governor's ball here in New York, now they announced a full US tour.

Ruled out because of Dour Festival

[gunther Mickey]

I have no expectation for the next three (or two) last bands but for the fun I'd say : Highly Suspect or Don Broco (Friday => opener main act), Fleet Foxes (Friday => Klub C headliner) and MO (Sunday => Klub C sub-headliner). I'd like to see : De Staat, The Hives and Foster the People but it's clearly unlikely.

A little part of me is expecting Royal Republic before Foo's or Radiohead (and Circa Waves to open before Kaleo).

But I learned about my past mistakes

We should really get a camp loner chat going. Whats a good site for setting one up (not facebook if people want to remain somewhat anonymous)?

Thanks, just found it!

Last year on Thursday Disclosure Main Stage till 02.00h.

This year Kings of Leon only till 00.40h?

Is this because KoL want to be last on the bill?

Or is there still anything coming? But it's strange to have the Chainsmokers NOT on the main even there would be time for it...

I thought that. Just seems silly to me. They book one of the biggest dance acts in the world and them put them on before 10pm in the Barn, yet still book no Main Stage dance act.

With the set up of another act taking a while, a slot for an act after KOL is impossible.

I get that, but then why not put Kings Of Leon on later / put another act earlier on on the main stage

Klub c finishes early so perhaps it's a new direction finishing early on Thursday. 

They have said Thursday is complete so that's all we are getting I'm afraid.

How can you see so many acts a day? I mean... there always have to be some time for chilling or drinking and eating, right?

I always eat whilst watching the bands and if it's someone I'm not fussed for seeing/being at the front for I'll just chill at the back. I always try to be seeing a band and getting my value for money. Especially when there's so many I want to see! 

[McCallion]

I'd really like to see Lorde but also want a good spot for Arcade Fire. Difficult decisions!

[grumpykrogan]

I finally listened to the new LP songs and you guys were so right, they are atrocious. 

[grumpykrogan]

Also, Blues Pills or Glass Animals?

I'm undecided which I wanna see, YT videos were not conclusive.

Haha! I played the same game earlier today! My conclusion was Blue Pills but it's tricky!

[TheWerchterJuggernaut]

Oooooo... I chose glass animals. Its because I am main staging quite alot and I know that blue pills would be a definite yes. I am up and down with glass animals would like to see how much I like em live.... I can always turn around and go to see blue pills.
