    Conor Oberst seems to be further down the lineup than I would have expected.


    Anyway, still not really anything major I'm interested in so think I'll give it a miss this year.

    I dont think it will be as good as last year but it still has a good line up


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,901 ✭✭✭Mince Pie



    Still haven't got a ticket though, will it sell out before say the end of June?

    Can't see it selling out till closer to the time to be honest and that at best guess would be weather dependant.
    It had a much much stronger line up last year and didn't sell out till that weekend due to the phenomenal heat wave we had.

    Did Ry X pull out? He seems to be playing latitude but not longitude now, even though he was on the original poster.

    He's a member of 'The Acid' so I'd say he's playing with them now instead of solo. :)

    No chance of it selling out til at least July, and I think it'll be up to the weather again, if its not consistently hot I don't see it selling out.

    It's a good night all the same for 60 euro just wouldn't be too fussed about it. As said above depends on the weather...Not too happy about Bonobo on the Friday so if I were to pick a day it would have to be Sunday.

    underwhelming announcement but still I'm happy with the line up. Is this the final big announcement?

    Also this is probably a dumb question but why does it say (live) after I am the cosmos and lasertom? Is it not a given that it'll be live? :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,022 ✭✭✭lc180


    So now that The Black Keys are definitely 100% not playing at Longitude I wonder will they make an appearence in Ireland at all this summer?

    Some electronic acts do DJ sets instead of playing their own stuff.

    ah I see! I was very confused...

    Just booked a hotel for this, slim pickings out there.

    There's lots available for the longitude weekend?

    Not so much in the city centre. Ballsbridge and D7 no problem. Getting pretty pricey though.

    sorry, meant that there are slim pickings for deals. Plenty of rooms but pricey.

    Booked my ticket for Saturday, looking forward to seeing Disclosure again.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,755 ✭✭✭A V A


    ^^ they'll be headlining glasto next years o you'll be delighted, thats if you can go


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭SpaceCowb0y


    The Saturday is set to be an epic day out! Haim, CHVRCHES, Hozier, Le Galaxie all in the one day :) really hope none of these will have set times that clash! Would like to see Disclosure too but not at the cost of any of the above.


  • Registered Users Posts: 236 ✭✭freddiemoore


    There isn't that many stages at Longitude so play I imagine all the headliners be on the main stage with possibly the exception of Disclosure who might be in the Heineken Tent, as it hosted more of the dance acts. Fairly impressed with the Sat myself so if I've some dosh to spare I'll probably head up for the night!

    Disclosure will be headlining the main stage for def

    Ya I'd say you're right. I think Hozier, The 1975, Chvrches, Haim and Disclosure all play in a row. Last year on the Sunday had all the most famous acts in a row like that. Great day!

    Bah. Won't be paid til next week. Probably should have bought the Saturday first rather than the Sunday, there was never any chance of Massive Attack's day being the first to sell out. Hozier was always going to be the big draw.
