I think they are largely, but theres a bit of a difference (like the manics played Oxegen last year but not T as there wasn't a comparable stage there). I dunno if that means the days mirror too so they'll be on the killers day at Oxegen - though the website doesn't say what day that is either anyway.

Could kind of do with getting that one confirmed before Friday.

Latitude would be great, also I think the first time the manics have ever played Suffolk (they've not really missed out over the years by not doing so but really they should once just for the experience, and its pretty close to the Norfolk border so they could leave quite easily).

We should just be able to have a Manics Festival of nothing but Manics! What a great weekend that would be!

I wouldn't be so sure of it being a great weekend to be honest, a manics festival hosted by Nicky:

I might go.

Good lineup, but the festival itself is very badly organised.

e festivals are reporting the manics are playing the Sunday - which is kinda bad news as its near impossible to get there from T before doors and you need to rely on flights running to time to even get close which is never a good start!

Still better than them going on sale tomorrow without a clue which day - well I guess Saturday was never gonna happen!

Pet Shop Boys added, and Glasvegas. I'm not particularly fans of either but i'd certainly go see them at a festival. Lineup is quite solid this early on, I think i'll go.

Jane's Addiction on the Sunday as well. It may well be the best fucking Sunday that ever was at this rate...

Just don't know whether to book or not-getting back for work on Monday could be a problem.

I just really want a Manics tour, come on PLEASE.
