Does that mean they can't again? A google search suggests it was their 4th set. Maybe due a return.

Thing is they headlined the Thursday. Which means either they'd have to headline the Thursday again, which I doubt would happen, or be a main weekend headliner, which I don't think they'd be booked for anymore.

That's fair enough.

Yes, in past years they've already headlined the Garden, the Woods, and of course the Singing Theatre.

Ah man, if that means you missed K.O.G. you missed an absolute belter. One of my sets of the weekend. What a way to kick off the festival!

KOG were are such fun & Sudan Archives great too. Just a shame that (for me) khruangbin then killed the vibe.

I couldn’t get the enthusiasm for Khruangbin: they sounded exactly like what used to play behind the testcard on 60s TV.

The reformed Allo Darlin must be nailed on?

Looks like they're only playing two south-east dates at the end of October.

When YLT last played EOTR I remember the reaction being that it was lazy booking and unworthy of headliner status, and it's not as if they've become bigger since then. Even when they headlined Green Man in 2019 it was widely assumed to be a last minute upgrade as they hadn't been announced as headlining.

I wouldnt be impressed with them as a headliner of the woods stage, but subbing or garden stage would be fine

Let's have an informed but completely unscientific guess:

Headliners: Big Thief, Angel Olsen, Wet Leg*, The Smile

Subs: Wilco, Alvvays, Ezra Furman

Garden: Weyes Blood, Black Country New Road, Dry Cleaning

Also high up: Squid, Shame, Alex G, Young Fathers, Ibibio Sound Machine, The Waeve, Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul

(* complete swing for the fence, but supposedly they may have a second album out this year and I can see them being offered in a "they started their story here, so..." way)

[Guy Incognito]

Wet Leg could probably headline the Thursday

Wouldn't that make it too busy in the FO... see what they did to the Park Stage 😆

I'd hope they'd turn up to the right place, Far Out will have long been taken down by their EOTR slot.

Fair shout.... 😝

[zahidf]

Pavement are touring internationally in the summer....

Belle and Sebastian?  They've just announced a new album out soon.

[riverlodge]

Also with new album The New Pornographers, I shan't hold out much hope but they might just return...

Out Friday! Yeah, I was thinking this, especially as it'll be ten years since they headlined before.

[Born in the fifties]

Would be good to get a few of the bands that I've seen and enjoyed in the last 12 months or so, and who haven't (I think!) already played at EOTR:

Sprints, Melts, Scattered Ashes, Enola Gay, Bullet Girl, Youth Sector, Opus Kink, Hallan, Deadletter, Lemondaze, The Lounge Society, Egyptian Blue, Mandrake Handshake, Cheap Teeth, Crows, Vlure, Fake Turins, Personal Trainer, Winter Gardens, Ditz.
