| | those there names are almost every band i've seen rumoured to date... although undoubtedly some will end up being true, i'd wager around 50% at least will not... i've already seen someone say that morrisey was just made up (unfortunately)... sure, we'll see - there's some great stuff alright | | | |

| | Yes, Palace, all rumours...but as you said even if 50pc are true it's still a great line-up. So much more imaginative that Oxegen, then again their aiming for a different crowd. | | | |

"For fans living in Ireland the reason for the tour not going to you is because we are booked for the Electric Picnic Festival in Ireland in September and they wanted to keep that event as our sole Irish live show. The festival is on September 1, 2 and 3 but, as yet, I don't know what day we will be playing."

| | What I meant was that Postal Service don't tour anymore. In an interview last year Ben Gibbarad refused to discuss new recordings with the Postal Service and simply stated that they don't want to tour anymore. But anything is possible. | | | |

NWA split up fifteen years ago and MF Doom can't leave the US cause he's not legally entitled to a passport so I think it's pretty safe to say that the list is horsesh*t. | | | |
