If they headlined the mainstage and played 30 songs, they will have to turn it in to a camping festival, metro certainly would not put on any later trains

They could start their set fairly early if they want to play 30 songs?

and just invite 2 less headline bands to play?

not jsut dont invite to early bands to play

sounds expensive

They could probably do it without dumping any bands. Unless it takes an hour to set up The Cure's stage, they don't need the hour gap between the last two bands on the main stage (unless another band doesn't want anyone playing at the same time as them), so that could be a little more time. Maybe start the main stage at 11 and drop 5 or ten minutes off a few smaller bands sets. Wouldn't be likely, but if they wanted to it could be done.

As much as I like The Cure (and have seen them play a three hour set), getting any band to play a 3 hour set at a festival sounds like a terrible idea.

Yeah the over 3 hour Reflections show they did last year was awesome.
I don't think they need to do the same thing at a festival.
They could just do a 1-1.5 hour festival set and save the mammoth shows for their sideys.

I didn't see the Reflections tour. I saw them on their previous tour when they did a 3 hour set at the Entertainment Centre.

That show was great too, both those shows were really different for me as I saw The 4.13 Tour at an entertainment centre and Reflections was at The Opera House.
I think I enjoyed Reflections more for the venue and the full album sets though.
They might be the only band I can sit and watch for 3 hours plus and not get bored.

I still can't believe I didn't see The Cure on the 4:13 Dream tour. I remember being gutted that I couldn't go, but I can't actually remember why I couldn't.

In conclusion, they should book The Cure!

Hoping for Sigur Ros (pretty much confirmed) Grimes, Grizzly Bear, Yeasayer, Patti Smith & her band, Mazzy Star and Tame Impala/POND

That was when I saw em too. A sort of greatest hits collection. Edge Of The Deep Green sea was phenominal and so was every other song they played.

I snabbed half a setlist torn between me and some other youngster.

When was this 4:13 dream tour? The three hour tour was in August 2007 and 4:13 wasnt released until october 2008.Reflections was at Vivid Live 2011

Did you just say you suck balls? Eww

Yeah, The Cure and Sigur Ros at the same time, sucks balls... So? I do like teabags though.

truthlies - So many things to say, so little time to learn how to multi-quote.

I saw that AJ posted that he would like to book Refused for Soundwave but they are busy from December to April, do you think he could of snuck them in for Harvest?

Absolutely not.

Tame Impala, who are playing Splendour - I doubt that. Mazzy Star would be good, I really liked Hope Sandoval
at Coachella.

Anything is possible, even Garbage. Lock in Dead Can Dance.

Then why did you do it?

I like it when you reply, it makes me not lonely.

Just listened to DCD for the first time, being blazed would be the most appropriate state of mind to be in for their set IMO.

I'm going to take her twitter handle also being a name of a band that could totally be playing and are small enough to do east coast sideshows as a clue.

Unless they have a new album in the works (I haven't seen/heard anything), I couldn't really see them coming back again so soon after their East Coast tour earlier this month.

By the time Harvest rolls in, it would have been a distant memory though.

You should watch some live DCD if you havn't already.

I really like this song:

Dead Can Dance?
Wow, I could see them playing the Mogwai (blissed-out-as-the-sun-sets) spot.
But damn I will have to go to Adelaide for sure to see their side show as well!

Unless AJ is allowing Melbourne/Sydney sideys this time, did any artist play sideys last year that
weren't in Adelaide or Perth?

Err, I saw Bright Eyes and TV on the Radio in Sydney. This Town Needs Guns, Kevin Devine and Phosphorescent did shows too.

Flaming Lips did sideshows as well (or at least Melbourne)

Oh OK, must have just been Portishead that weren't allowed them, cool bananas.

A lot of the biggest acts didn't play sideshows in Sydney though (Eg. Portishead, The National, Flaming Lips, Mogwai).

Why don't we get any sideshows ever!

Shut up! That's why!

AJ pretty much hates Sydney, from what I can tell.

And rightly so - it's so hard to find a reliable cocaine dealer there.

Please announce the announcement of the preliminary announcement of when the official lineup announcement could be sometime sooooon
