Manics to do any other festivals this year?

Apart from Isle of Wight, obviously... Any possibilities/hopes for the summer? I haven't been on here for a while, so I don't know if there have been any rumours circling about

Yeah, I was just looking on the efestivals forum for V - and a few people seem to think they might be in the line up.

Well they said the tour would be a good warm up for the festival season so it would be a bit stupid if that 'season' amounted to one gig for them

Hope so, hoping for Leeds! I'll get a day ticket if they do, I was thinking of going for one day anyway.

I reckon they should try to get themselves to Coachella or SXSW, surprised they haven't so far. As for UK festivals I'll be surprised if Isle Of Wight is the only one. They've been bragging about exclusive festival bookings and haven't mentioned Manics as one.

This pleases me greatly. The V line-up can sometimes be a bit hit and miss, so Manics would improved it MUCHLY!

There's always one really shite day at Reading/Leeds so day tickets is probably a good idea. I know I'll end up doing the whole weekend though.

I can see them trying to do V but that was an embarassment last time and I have a Reading ticket so I'm praying for R/L

I'd expect several more. Wouldn't surprise me if they ended up around Europe again.
