I could have sworn that when I saw Leftfield a few years ago (2001?) at Glastonbury that they had reformed for that too. ?
I wouldnt be too bothered about them, they have two or three good tracks but overall I wasnt that interested in their sound.
Going on previous years experience they usually wait until the festival is nearly sold out to announce the last few names...
Hawtin is doing a Plastikman gig somewhere in Europe in April, not a DJ set.
I would love to hear that type of music in a big sound system.

Plastikman's been confirmed for Timewarp a couple of weeks after
Possibly either Vitalic or FourTet as they're both playing live sets in UK around the right time - would be less impressed as headliners than Plastikman though
Or it could be someone completely different....

Dunno about Vitalic, OK Cowboy was awesome but Flashmob was disappointing. Just got Fourtet's new album and it's ace but could you call either of these HUGE acts? Surely that is reserved for your FSOL, AFX, Leftfield, Jedward, Orbital or Ms Dynamite (!) Daft Punk anyone?

can't see it being daft punk, did they not 'retire' that pyramid gig they were touring for the last few years? can't see them playin live again for a while. defo's not for a smaller gig like bloc...it'd be absolutley shocking tho!
in all honesty i'm not fussed who it is...the lineup is lookin bloody sweet enough as it is!

Personally though, I'm rooting for another rumour..
Who? You aren't gonna spoil owt if it's only a rumour, unless you genuinely know summat
I don't want to jinx it. Think it's been mentioned on here anyway.
I'm sure we won't be disappointed. I mean the line-up is already outstanding..

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, CAN WE PLEASE GET CEEPHAX BACK ON THE BILL?
What is Bloc without Ceephax? It just doesn't seem right!

Unfortunately Ceephax is on tour in Japan this year. He will be back.
More news very soon.

Maybe whichever rascal pinched his 303 years back can be hired as a Ceephax cover band...

Are you sure? I know he thought he might be going to Japan but has still not listed and Japan dates on his sites. Please re-confirm!
