Pretty awful at the Superbowl halftime show, I almost felt sorry for them!

I'd normally switch off but it was so car crash I watched way longer than I should have.

Went to ticketmaster booth this morning to get ticket for vampire weekend. Was surprised that there was a queue and at how young it was until I realised post Malone on sale at same time. Feeling old now.

Didn't realise young people queued for tickets anymore.. is there any benefit? Not like being in queue guarantees a ticket over online?

Surely that signifies that Courtney is finally on the way. Been longing to see her live for a while. Make it an Aussie weekend with Tame Impala, Pond & King Gizzard please.

Throw in Rolling Blackouts coastal fever, Julia Jacklin and Stella Donnelly and I'm there. I'll bring the shrimps.

Wooderson

Gizz are in the States during EP.

Looks like pukkelpop are also getting Prophets of rage and The National.

This along with announced twenty one pilots, Billie Ellish, Royal blood and Tame impala.

The National are playing 2 unique sets.

There were 20 or so ahead of me in the queue. I was only there as wasn't able to use ticketmaster gift card to pay on mobile.

She is playing End of the Road that weekend too so that leaves one day that she would be free to play at EP!

Cons: that would be terrible
Pros: with a great undercard, won't make any difference. And if the undercard is also ****e, then don't think it would be too difficult to shift the tickets. Win win!

Chem Bros have played EP too much, fecking Aphex Twin please fed up with the same old, same old.

Ricosruffneck

Muse, Tame impala, Florence, aphex twin

Hozier, The Coronas, Hot Chip, Royal blood.

Maybe delete Muse and it looks realistic.

Yeah im not omitting them, I reckon everyone including me has mentioned them already. Just bringing others to the table now.

Seems like you can't have a fest in 2019 without the 1975 showing up

You'd have to be full unicorns and **** sideways for Apex Twin....they'll probably roll out Fatboy for health and safety reasons.

seems to the same combo of acts around all the festivals however us lucky folk in ireland get to see most them all separately for around €100 each midweek instead of at the likes of EP!

Ferris_Bueller

The 1975 - Tame Impala - Twenty One Pilots - Hozier
Aphex Twin - The Streets - Anderson Paak - Robyn

I think we are guaranteed to get The 1975 and Tame Impala at least. Florence & the Machine probably possible too but I felt adding her into the acts above would be too strong of a headline pack. I wonder will we get an older headliner from the 80s/90s this year?
