Festival line-up update: Coachella, Roskilde, T In The Park and more

By | Published on Friday 19 April 2013

Roskilde Festival

So, we start today’s FLUU at Coachella, and a listings edit that’s meant one-time Friday headliners The Stone Roses trading places and their one-time line-up subsidiaries Blur. Hmm.

Blur will now play after Ian Brown et al, closing the American festival’s repeat weekend on 19 Apr. This may have something to do with the fact that The Stone Roses apparently attracted only a small following when they played Coachella’s first 2013 half, whilst Blur, apparently, proved popular. Or, you know, it might just be because the two bands were always billed as co-headliners on the bill and they were always going to switch around for the second weekend.

Over in Denmark, Roskilde last night completed its line-up with the announcement of another 80 odd acts playing the festival this year. Amongst the new additions are The National, Bobby Womack, Danny Brown and Goatwhore. They join the likes of Rihanna, Kraftwerk, Queens Of The Stone Age, Slipknot, Sigur Rós and more.

And finally it’s back to Britain, and a change of scenery for The xx’s artsy creation Night + Day. Thanks to TFL graciously closing the Piccadilly Line (aka the station closest to the festival’s initial base at Osterley Park) on 23 Jun, the one-day event has moved forward to 22 Jun, and to a new, increased-capacity site at Hatfield House.

So, that’s quite a lot of detail to take in. Fortunately, the following FLUU info is infinitely more straightforward:
