It looks like Icelandic Beverly Hills 90210.

By the way, do you think this big group of nordic girls will headline hidden stage like Haus, Public BroadCasting Service and Booka Shade in 2017 or they'll just have an early slot?

I was wondering that myself, last year only one of those three was mentioned as 'headlining' in the news story, so who knows.

If the 90210 girls get paid €30 each for the show that's probably a considerable amount of the budget gone so ... lol

Actually a 16 people band could cost like a good solo live/dj act...

Yeah I was kind of half joking / half serious, even if the band play for free they still need 10 hotel rooms or whatever for them, probably isn't cheap

That's what I'm thinking...even if cheap there's 16(+manager) flights, hotels...

Having said that, there here as part of some European Project so it's possible INmusic don't have to spend a cent. 

On top of that, without Kings of Leon etc on the bill, I'm sure there's still a fair bit of money left to spend

I think the last headliner could be announced somewhere in march, on the next they when they will rise the ticket price.

At the moment i'm guessing next artists to take the headliner slot:

Jamiroquai, Gorillaz, Tame Impala (inmusic people always asking for them)  MGMT (New album released today) Manic Street Preachers (Incoming album this spring)

[Andrej]

MGMT to small to headline. i think tame impala is mad cools eu exclusive? Jamiroquai maybe, he already headlined Inmusic. 

[gregory]

Smashing Pumpkins would have fit in pretty well with this years alt/rock/alternative line-up, but don't think the reunion will be touring by then (and A Perfect Circle are still touring then too).

There has to be a reason why they haven't announced the headliner yet, QOTSA were announced almost 5 months ago and the festival is in 4 months so we're now nearer the festival than the first headliner announcement, with a headliner to come.

Maybe they replace Skunk Anansie? It's hard to tell. IMO St Vincent is big/good enough to headline the main stage, so if she's 3rd down that's quite something.

If Interpol are not  headliners this is a very very fucking good year, with a Main Stage and World Stage headliner to come...

Edited February 12, 2018 by gregory

[gregory]

For every other announcement the news story has said which stage the act is on, and if they're headliner, so it's strange they haven't for Interpol. Maybe they're trying to get another headliner, and if not they'll bump Interpol up.

Also, INmusic is 'Hot!' for possibly the first time ever, ahaha.

EDIT: on the 'ticket's page the acts are listed in this order "Queens of the Stone Age, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Interpol, David Byrne, etc." Maybe my 'backup' headliner idea isn't so far off, if they were headliner right now they would have been announced as that.

EDIT2: They've put them in 3rd position, so could be headliner or second billing. Feel like they're being deliberately obtuse... @the wonderwhy

The price has'nt changed so they aren't headliners...no?

Good point, also everytime they announce an headliner they make an announcement of the announcement..but also what @gregory has said could be right, let's see.

Me as a good stalker I've asked Inmusic.

[alan_ts]

As they did for Byrne they have said "for many yes".

So I assume officially they aren't.
