    I'm going to guess Bon Iver and/or Tame Impala. That'd be the dream.

    Bon Iver could be a good shout , Id say Tame Impala are too big for B&S(but if they do get announced i might be tempted to go)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,998 ✭✭✭lc180


    Im gonna guess Robyn and James Blake as possible headliners. Complete guesses though


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,459 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Don't even like speculating for Body & Soul because you will just get let down. Bon Iver would be very nice, Kurt Vile is touring heavily around Europe at that time of year and has played before. Christine & the Queens is around too but maybe too poppy for body & soul.


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


    based on headliners in previous years, I'd say there's next to no chance of Bon Iver, let alone Tame Impala. both are way too big IMO.

    James Blake/Robyn/Christine/Kurt Vile are good shouts, doubt B&S would be able to afford all of them though.
    thinking Spiritualized or Four Tet are headliner possibilities too.

    James Blake would be perfect. Nick Cave headlined a few years ago so I'm not sure it's a case of B&S can't afford certain headliners or they're just scrimping

    Eden festival in Scotland 6th - 9th June has typical types of B&S acts, so maybe some coming from there, wouldn't mind Macca B and the Robotics for a fun reggae act anyways. http://edenfestival.co.uk/line-up-2019/

    It would want to be good with the price they're charging. I'm not paying over 200 quid again for a terrible line up. I'll go to ATN instead as I'd say a lot of people are doing

    Will this work day ever end!

    I checked their twitter about an hour ago hoping it would have been an early announcement. This day is already dragging along :(

    They should do a version of groundhogs day, where we go through a day of suspense until 7pm and keep doing it until they get the lineup right!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,941 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck


    This is probably very unrelated, but Belfast Vital is also making an announcement @ 7pm

    Although their gigs are usually in August???

    Vital tends to be Oxegen lite acts very un B&S.

    I dont think its worth even hazarding a guess at headliners (even though ive already backed tame impala and weezer) because they are so unpredictable. But maybe a guess at the Irish/smaller acts might work? A good few are already announced for ATN, so Im going to go with:

    Vulpynes
    Wyvern Lingo
    All Tvvins
    Slow Place Like Home
    Dathai
    Bad Bones
    Makings
    Nialler9/Lumo Djs
    Sing Along Social
    Jinx Lennon
    Nix Moon
    Thumper
    David Kitt (not New Jackson)

    Would love KKC, Fointaines, Murder Capital, Saint Sister, Pillow Queens etc but not sure they will play ATN and B&S. Some of the EP coverbands and regulars e.g. pogueology, these charming men, frank and walters etc would be class too.

    Finally, since Susanne Sundfor didnt make it last year, Id like to see her this year!


  • Registered Users Posts: 557 ✭✭✭whelzer


    Seeing as we are waiting around... a few of these would be nice;

    Talos
    DJ Lycox (or any guys from the Príncipe label)
    Okzharp & Manthe Ribane
    Kate Rusby
    O Flynn
    The Blaze
    Les Amazones Afrique
    Whyte Horses

    Also, it would be deadly if there was a fantasy festival league, where each player got say a million euro and had to book the best possible festival for the money!

    Hopefully. Also hopefully Body and Soul will give them a late night slot rather than late afternoon like EP did.

    IF they are booked i shall be getting a ticket ASAP :pac:.

    I was thinking The Raconteurs are back in Europe during the summer and no dates as of yet in Ireland

    Any chance of Blossoms? They are supporting one or other of the Gallaghers in Malahyde in mid June, and then playing in Stockport on the Saturday of Body and Soul. Maybe, just maybe, they would stick around for the Friday of B&S?

    Ooooh The Blaze would be so delish. You've got me hoping for that now!
    The past two years they've done the sunday takeover at reckless in love with mano le tough/drifter and the Maeve label. Wonder will it be the same or will they change that up a bit.

    Nah. Just a little bit of Monica


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


    these were the initial announcements in the last 5 years. I'm thinking far more likely to be Lampchop or Flight Facilities size-acts headlining this year, than a Tame Impala or a Weezer:
