Neighbourhood Weekender 2019

[SCG95]

NBHD is set to return over the same weekend in 2019. Who are we all expecting/wanting on the line up? 

RA's announced tour dates over April and May today. No gig in the North-west, so I have a feeling he'll be there.

Gonna push the boat out here, really pull a name out of the sky and say... oooh... Catfish & the Bottlemen?

He'll probably sub it.

I'd probably give it a miss if this happened.

Catfish maybe but I'd rather the Stereophonics and the Manics or Ashcroft.

When are we expecting any announcements?

Hopefully very soon - last years line up was announced mid November.

The Vaccines just announced some dates early next year, no Manchester date so think they’re a definite to play next year

They could do parklife

Yup - definitely gunna pencil them down for this. Either sub or 3rd down on the main!

[DannyEvo]

Ashcroft is absolutely nailed on.

New Ian Brown album out in March. Makes perfect sense to do this, although that Sacha from WHP was tweeting about his new music coming so maybe it's an indication that he's doing Parklife? I know he did WHP on the last tour so feasible.

Richard Ashcroft and Ian Brown to sub, if I ever saw a pair.

Given that Courteeners obviously skew much larger in the North-West of England than anywhere else though and NGHFB played such a myriad of festival sizes as headliner this year, I'm not sure who could be in the headline frame here. I've got to assume that, if they could afford them, they would go for Kasabian, but given they were only headlining R+L last year, this definitely would look like a step down.

Ian Brown was playing his own outdoor dates in Manchester before the Roses reunited, and obviously has decent history with Cheshire too. I think NBHD could - and will - get away with having him headline. Him and Catfish I reckon.

Fair enough point; but at the same time, wouldn't say he's strictly at the level of those two either. Their pulling power - especially Courteeners - exceeds his as a solo act, I'd think.

If they are shy of "lad" options though, he could be a good shout if the other headliner carries more clout.

Just booked a hotel for this so hopefully it's worth the trip again, went up for the Sunday this year and was a decent day out.

If they're going to follow this years trend by having an older headliner that can appeal to dads as well as the beer boys then Ian Brown or Ashcroft seem obvious choices but can't see them getting both, one to go alongisde Catfish/Bastille or anyone else who's slipped my mind. Don't know if Kaiser Chiefs would be booked, particularly with Elland Road still being on sale but I could do without that.

The main announcement was Monday 13th November last year so hopefully only a couple of weeks away... Monday 12th maybe?

With the hype of Gerry Cinnamon going on i could see him getting booked again but for main stage.

The Kooks seem like a shout with their new album actually.

[Jonesy1]

Just tweeted saying an announcement coming “very, very soon”

Today possibly?

[AAlex]

It was Monday 13th November last year... so maybe next Monday? (12th November)

Makes sense, announcement next Monday, tickets on sale Friday.

[Jonesy1]

Announcement on Monday @ 7pm on radio X

[badleg08]

Gonna hazard a guess at:

Ian Brown and Primal Scream/James on one day.

Catfish and the Bottlemen/Wolf Alice and Bastille on the other. 

Wishlist: Drenge, Idles, Sports Team, Peace, Boy Azooga.
