NERD
Bjork
MBV

Maybes

Rfrip

I’ve absolutly no interest in any of those headliners. It will be first ep in a long time where not even one would draw me.

Lot of what I’d like to see are playing elsewhere all summer.

However, i cant wait!!!

Nugget89

Garbage
Vampire Weekend
Chvrches

All look like reasonable possibilities

MaxManis

Noel Gallagher, Leftfield, Alt-J and Kasabian are possibilities I think

My betting/wish list would be:

St. Vincent
James
Gruff Rhys
David Byrne
Flaming Lips (I know, I know, they're playing Galway, but still!)

Doesn't seem to be much love for Kasabian here but I think they'd be a brilliant headliner. One of my favourite live acts.

Agreed. Their albums aren't up to much but they have enough belters as singles to keep me entertained for an hour or so.

As much as it upsets me I can't see David Byrne coming back over here in the middle of touring the States

He's touring up to the 28th August, then scene missing, then back to the US on 15th Sept.

Dare to dream!

Reggie noble

Bone thugz n Harmony are a good chance as a headliner

Noel gallagher already playing elsewhere the Friday and Saturday. Not sure if he’s doing 3nights in a row elsewhere on his tour so I’d say he’s doubtful.
Would love alt-j and I know kasabian not everyone’s cup of tea but they really are cracking live.

Rfrip

I’d love sigrid, tame impala, Paul kalkbrenner and Robyn.

Would be delighted if despacio came back.
I see pink moon are doing boutique camping in the woods now, called harvest moon.

I thought the other Boutique area was being taken over by Pink Moon and branded as Harvest Moon.

Edit: I see now on their site they're also doing a Harvest Moon (In the woods)

MiniFridgeMen

Beatyard made another announcement

St.Germain, Kiasmos, King Kong Company, Loah, Django Django and Daphi (Caribou)

Graham1978

Simple Minds could be a possible headliner on the Sunday, like Duran Duran last year.  
If James are announced ill be over the moon, could never understand how they never played EP, such an amazing live band .

Is Howard Jones touring?? Feck me, that would be an incredible nostalgia trip! Really enjoyed Simple Minds last time they played. Jim still has the moves and in fairness, some of their back catalogue is class.

MadYaker

I kind of like not having a clue to be honest, it’s add a bit of excitement.

I could imagine Simple Minds at 6 or 7 o clock on Sunday. Its hard to see them headlining. Even allowing for the nostalgia vibe. I would have no objection to it happening, i just cant see it.

They were an early evening act this last time they played, somehow I can't see them getting pushed up to headliner status.
