Listeed to the album?

Have you heard him live?

MadYaker

He sounded ok on Jools Holland. But I agree his voice is shagged.

thebusher

I have heard him live yea.

I'm not looking for perfection in a live setting. If I was I'd be heading to see Phil Collins or Billy Joel.

I like me live music a bit rough around the edges ☺
Hes got the tunes and the crowd would help with the singing anyway

So why is the festival so long away?

This would go down very well on the festival Sunday, main stage, sun shining sitting on the grass dube in hand

I heard on the radio this morning there is a petition to get Aha to EP next year. Cannot find this petition they speak of at all......

I'm sure they've already got next years acts lined up already either way

That petition had to be started by someone on here....

Rigor Mortis

No way they can afford Aha and Radiohead.

Ah yes, that's possibly fantastic news. I was worried that their tour would stop much earlier but this means there's a huge chance of EP nabbing them.

I usually pay extra for that but if it's going for free...

Electric Arena Saturday night it has to be. Was obsessed with Matt as a teenager. WTF happened to music? (Sorry, it's late!)

You would really have to think that The The would be perfect EP fare. This would be epic.

PinkCamper

Really hoping for Chvrches for 2018. They set the EA on fire in 2015. They're working on new album right now. Pleeeeease book them! Big synths lifting me up out of my wellies ðŸ˜

Plus their announcement as one of the main acts would go down very well on FB. I foresee much headscratching.

MadYaker

I'm struggling to think of any interesting headliner type bands that look like they'll be touring next year.

Would love that. If I'm right though they did the album at EP 3/4 years ago so may not be booked again for the same. Anyone know whether my memory is playing tricks?
