2024 headline speculation

[xxialac]

I think they have an almost exactly equal number of good and (for my taste) bad names which is a bit frustrating as could have made an incredible festival by switching some of the names over.

If EOTR also had Lonnie Holley, Julia Holter and Model/Actriz that would be great but aside from that I’m not sure I’d be that bothered, albeit GM have lots of solid names.  One Leg One Eye (and Oxn) would be a good addition to EOTR and maybe likely if Lankum are already there.

I don't think anyone expected the line-up to include a Brit award winner on the fourth line of the poster but here we are. Suspect Casisdead is going to move up the next graphic, maybe also get a Woods placing (assuming he didn't already have one, my speculation was Friday late night Big Top)

Only thing on Green Man I'm proper envious of is the Max Cooper AV show, but that's cos I saw it already. Was proper mint though.

Always love Explosions but seen them loads, Sofia K only a dj set. Most other stuff I've seen (usually at EOTR) or it's not my jam

Agree on other point but he is on the third line really and is far too small to be on the first line. Not sure if moving him to the second line is really necessary.

Not a headliner but in the area festival week

Far too big to be added now, the London date is the Apollo. Besides which I doubt her people would even consider her as EOTR level, she's currently supporting Olivia Rodrigo.

From the RALLY line-up the week before I'd imagine WITCH will be added, though Armand Hammer would be ideal.

Do you reckon only one other from that lineup is realistic?

 

Would love both WITCH and Armand Hammer

Four weeks before, the Irish August bank holiday is the first weekend of the month.

Aha so it is. Got mixed up with the Electric Picnic dates. Anyway, a lot of those acts in the area that month so to speak.

Doesn't really fit the lower down on the bill thread: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0h4f7z3/6-music-festival-2024-cmat

Ringo Deathstarr and Blushing just announced a UK tour beginning 1st September.

[iamdiceman]

Melt-Banana just announced a September UK tour with dates free on 2 and 3 of September, EOTR and Supersonic? Or just the latter?

 

Would be a great addition.

That's Monday and Tuesday. They're already listed for Supersonic on the 30th and have gigs on the 29th and 31st.

Wow, what a complete and utter brain malfunction...

We thinking there might be some more acts announced in April?

Second announcement was March 22nd last year, 12th April in 2022, 2nd April 2019, 7th March 2018. So, yes, though I'd guess it'll be week beginning 8th April now.

New PRAH signing NiCKY has self-confirmed in an interview.

[SweepingTheNation]

Interestingly Nation Of Language have the Thursday listed on their website tour dates, and while that's not unusual to see as a holding position it features at the end of a run of UK gigs and they're playing Meo Kalorama on the Friday, so they're either flying there and back unnecessarily or opening Woods.

MC Yallah & Debmaster were due to headline Boat but had to pull out due to visa issues last year.

Playing Sept 7th Moth club, so hopefully visa issues sorted
