No Irony intended, didn't even know he was the singer on it until now:(, loved **** robot last time I saw him at EP, was dragged begrudgingly as hadn't heard of him. Was jammers as far as I can remember.

He's not the vocalist - that's Marcus Lambkin himself, but he wrote the lyrics, and has collaborated on much of the **** Robot recordings, given that it's his own label, and signing as well.

LCD Soundsystem put on fantastic gigs the last couple of EP's they did (saw them at both - thought the first performance -2005 - was up there with the best at EP ever), and will have no problems doing the same again, even if they were more 'relevant' ten years ago. They've still got the groove, the tunes, and now they have the nostalgia too.

Missed them in 2005 as well, would love to see the set times for those years wonder who they were clashing with, was 2005 when fatboy gave out the 3D glasses was seeing smiley faces for hours after it.
Arcade fire was my stand out that year, didn't hear a peep about LCD.

You were obviously not at the Electric Arena when they last played, it was absolutely jammers in much the same way as the Beasties back in 2007.

They were there in 2007 I think as well, stuck my head in and moved on, could have been clashing wth Jamie Lidell or something:D

They headlined the main stage in 2007.

Bjork was the main headliner for Friday 2007, LCD was the after headliner, I think the Bjork type on the poster is larger. LCD is definitely a headliner this year though.

Can't find the stage times for the Friday.

And what was that Sweetness & Light stage, a second Bodytonic stage? It doesn't register at all.

Wow. That line-up gets better with each passing year. 5 or 6 of my favourite EP performances and a lot of acts who are long overdue a return.

To be honest there's not much registering on that line up after 5pm, I've a feeling I was down there very early on Friday.

MJohnston

LCD would have only have been doing their first album tour in 2005, no surprise they flew under the radar then!

Ferris_Bueller

How many years have Hot Chip played EP? Seem to appear on a lot of line ups in previous years. Probably unlikely to be added again after playing last year but they're playing Festival No. 6 the weekend of EP and Bestival the weekend after so they're definitely around the weekend of EP!

Haven't seen him since that night with the 3d glasses. Didn't think he was magical but was well impresses with the glasses.

Have to practice the happy hour dance for the bar when he's on:)

He was awful in 2005 too, went with a bunch of On the Floor at the Boutique loving mates and cringed through some awful tune selection, barely there mixing, and general useless superstar DJ behaviour. Think he even took a break at one point to sit on some part of the lit up stage for a rest. Compare with older fellows like Bill Brewster or Greg Wilson who are still making an effort. Fatboy is an embarrassment to his older career.

Looking at that 2005 schedule, I realise that I missed the legendary Arcade Fire gig for nothing. I wasn't that pushed to see them, but assumed that I'd gone to see someone else. I was obviously getting a bite to eat or something, cause I didn't see any of the clashing acts either. (Except maybe Ben Watt in Bodytonic, before heading over to Royksopp?)

Don't think Roisin Murphy actually performed that year either - seem to remember she was a no-show.

I'd say the other way round, you might even see LCD early, they've very limited appeal. Not in the same league as the other headliners.

This is one of the funniest posts I've ever read on here

everlast75

if there is to be a last announcement of acts, it has to be today??

Space Shanty

Should get something this week I'd have thought.
Not expecting much mind you.
Hard to lose the suspicion they are doing it on the cheap big time.
Probably higher expectations of the Red Bull stage to be honest

Yeah with 3 & a half weeks to go, it's hard to know if anything major will be announced. Do they ever leave it this late to announce more acts?

they've announced mid range goodies (Jenny Lewis) at this stage before, but they've never sold out so early before or announced the acts in such an all over the shop manner.
