    Villagers are on Latitude on the Friday, so that would be a clash. That is if I'm reading the Latitude lineup right (if first column is Friday)

    they have thurs to sunday spread over three columns - does not compute!

    Speaking of FR, would love Frightened Rabbit to play at this. I've missed them every time they've been here except when they supported Death Cab a few years ago.

    Expect/hope they will play indiependence. They had said they would during their Irish tour last year and indiependence organisers said they wanted them then too. Fingers crossed!

    from previous years, the music is on Fri-Sun.
    don't know what they had on Thursday in previous years, but the day/times breakdown matched their poster, so would guess the columns this year are Friday, Saturday, Sunday too.

    Loads of acts I'd love to see at Latitude, might head over to the U.K to see it, unless Longitutde announce some impressive sub-liners and maybe one more biggie in April.

    Would love to see Bloc Party, Daughter, Rhye, I am Kloot, Alt-, Beach House, The 1975, to name a view.. that's on top of acts that will be playing in Longtitude also, Foals etc.

    Bloc Party are playing Latitude in England on the first day of Longitude (19th) so whether they'd play here is a moot point. They played two gigs here very recently after all.

    I was talking to Lianne La Havas' band (and Lianne) after their gig in the Olympia a few weeks ago and her drummer was talking to us about what festivals they were doing this summer and he mentioned Longitude. And then some other guy, perhaps her tour manager, joined the conversation and said that they were in talks with Longitude and he seemed fairly confident that it would happen.

    And I know many people in these threads say they "know" someone or "hear" things but that's the truth. I ain't one to lie. And neither do I see the point in making up rumours and posting them in one of these threads. :)

    And I hope she's plays too, she's amazing live. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. And it would mean that there would be at least three acts that I'd like to see at Longitude (the others being Jessie Ware and AlunaGeorge). If they all somehow ended playing on the same day, that'd be great, I'd definitely go then.

    If you'd bothered to read the thread you'd have answered your own questions.

    Yeah me too. No comedy acts or anything either.

    No one's going to this festival to watch comedy, in fairness. Lineup looks beast, Sunday especially.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,539 ✭✭✭ghostdancer


    very happy to see Japandroids and Gold Panda added.
    i'm a bit disappointed too that there wasn't more.
    around 18 acts each day, doesn't really seem like enough for 3 music stages...

    I'd agree with this but it was a bit of false advertising on previous posters saying that "It's more than just a music festival".
