I've already asked if it's part of 'Sounds of the City' again, am waiting to hear back.

But I guess that it is.

Always interested in what's going on here as I'm literally a couple of minute walk away!

Been the last two years, isn't much for me this year unfortunately

Shed Seven will be all over that, fantastic new album.

Imagine booking The Twang for a festival in 2018, jfc.

Well that's uninspiring.

Only thing interesting me there is Paul Heaton w/ Elvis Costello. 

 

Seen The Twang and Shed Seven many moons ago - never would I have thought they'd still be big enough to play shows like this. But they have core fan bases, as do R&TM. Does well in the north.

Think there may be a sixth one added later on... just had a look back at the last two years and Arcade Fire and The Last Shadow Puppets weren't on the original 2016/2017 posters.

It's the exact same sort of thing as every other year it's been on. Been telling you for months that they have a canon and they aren't going to book The War On Drugs or The National or any other of your wet lettuce bands. Same goes for used to be trendy mid 00s New York bands.
