I like Sharon Van Etten, and last time I saw her at a festival (Primavera) she seemed to have turned into big stage material/headliner to me. Had seen her three times and that was the best. Caribou has always put on a good show when I've seen him too, and although I've not been a big FJM fan in the past I have given the new album a go and it has some good tunes on it. Self Esteem I can take or leave but imagine that'll still be a good show!

I'm not upset about an early announcement - think a first batch and knowing more will follow is still pretty fun. Looking forward to it!

not sure where you got those names from

Quite disappointed I must say. It is a bit like 2 years ago where it is 8 bands I've seen but had already concluded I don't need to see them again. Only exception is Self Esteem which I thought was good.

 

Maybe the next announcement will reserve a few Supersonic bands that are more surprising.

Happy with FJM and SVE as headliners but could see how people might be a little disappointed with it. Personally think the undercard is a little weak at this point so hoping some good names get added, and I'm sure they will. I'm not a fan of that Geordie Greep album and feels like BCNR mustve played every UK festival for about the last 5 years so will feel a bit shortchanged if they get a Garden headline spot...

got to say i think these headliners are awful. not a tune between them. who on earth hunkers down for a sharon van etten headline set? stinking.

 

*caribou is good

 

john maus, these new puritans, mohammed syfkhan all good bookings. hoping theres more good stuff to come.

While perhaps not the most adventurous set of headliners, nor particularly difficult to catch on tour, in terms of what me and my group of mates enjoy they are absolutely perfect. We’ll all be getting tickets very soon.

 

I will not hear this Sharon Van Etten slander. Her Glasto set in 2019 knocked the socks off me and everyone else in the tent, my top highlight of the festival. Very much looking forward to seeing what she does with a headline set.

obviously its subjective and i have my feelings that are not gonna be shared. but i do think a headliner has to be widely popular or appealing, with recognisable tunes or at least the ability to put on a show. i dont particularly like vampire weekend but their headline show in 2018 was phenomenal.

 

could 25% of eotr ticket holders name a sharon van etten song?

Im happy with the headliners. SVE is the Thursday headliner, and her new songs sound very good, so im sure she'll put in a great show

 

Caribou and Self Esteem normally have upbeat songs, and im sure will be a lot of fun as always.

 

FJM has headlined before and went down well.

I sighed audibly when I saw BCNR on the lineup.

 

Overfamiliarity breeds contempt.
