With Delphic, the Sunshine underground and the crookers announced today for titp it looks like they are trying to entice some Rockness goers. The majority of the T fans don't look happy with it!

I'm just gutted about Erol and especially Fake Blood! Rockness had The Crookers last year I guess.

Does anyone that goes to T even know who the Crookers are? ;p

I know a lot of people go to both, and i've no doubt that loadsa people are delighted with the announcement, but after a wee look at some threads on here and facebook there are more people who seem to be unhappy with it, mostly cos they havent heard of anyone except madness!

[Fife_Nick]

Going to both anyway so pretty happy either way

Delphic would have been good for Rockness.

I think so too. I also think Sunshine Underground would be good for Rock Ness!

Delphic should've been at Rockness. I'm getting slightly concerned with who is actually left for Rockness with still 70 odd acts to be announced. I'm not too worried but the choices are wearing pretty thin and Jim King had better have something up his sleeve unless he can get more than one act to play both festivals this year e.g. Delphic.

Efests is a terrible representation of the general festival attending public!

I'm not too concerned mate. There are some pretty decent names still out there. (oh, hybrid just came on my shuffle, there is a shout)

I kind of thought Delphic may do T judging by the crowd they got a tuts in January, fact they played last year etc.

Too true.

[BenchBuddah]

Could say the same for Rockness with acts like The Strokes, The Doves, Ian Brown etc which are al T type bands and then dance acts like Vitalic and Dave Clarke.

[PammyT]

Well i'm gutted about Jamie T, had a feeling he'd be playing rockness this year. Oh well, you never know...

Madness would have been a great laugh too!

Steal Rockness punters?

I wouldn't say so.. T in the Park will always be T in the Park. Some may decide to fish out on both festivals,but other than that, they are different festivals dealing with different markets!

[FannyBaws]

Crookers, just Crookers - no The.

That being said, I would've liked to have saw The Delphic at Rockness

I know now quite a few people who choose between Rockness and T.

Yup, including myself !

I wouldn't go as far as saying that T in the Park are threatened by Rock Ness in anyway. I am looking forward to both! First time at T in the Park.. after fairly stubborn to attend for some time

this is getting ridiculous
