    ...the announcement about the announcement...!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,501 ✭✭✭PabloAndRoy


    I have just been reading that poster again and to be honest, I don't think there is any need for a another announcement.

    Any further choice will be too difficult to take. Its already gonna be clash hell.

    Is Halvin Carris busy that weekend so?

    Major Lazer can f\/ck right off, thank you. We have better things to be doing than putting up with such sh1te.

    You are just trolling us aren't you pony?

    I predict Joe Goddard and LCD Soundsystem and Boards of Canada and Amon Tobin and Celine Dion.

    Its gotta be one of those.

    Public Service Broadcasting has to be shoe in


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,501 ✭✭✭PabloAndRoy


    Black Grape maybe.

    Black Grape maybe.

    Ryder is touring with d'other band, playing in Leopardstown in mid August.


  • Registered Users Posts: 63 ✭✭stead


    Carl Cox playing Belfast a few days beforehand. Here's hoping they get him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,454 ✭✭✭showpony1


    Black Grape maybe.

    there'll be sour grapes if Major Laser is actually announced.

    we could get a few more of the bestival line-up?

    I predict a riot......
    :D
    Maybe not! I see there are touring, but would have to be Friday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,746 ✭✭✭SachaJ


    they headlined last year, there is no chance they're playing again this year.

    They have all the tour dates on their website. The EP weekend is suspiciously free considering the weekends before (Mexico) and after (current start of the European leg).

    It would be lazy, but would anyone actually complain?

    (would be great to see them on a warmish dry night)
