It's not worth a big debate anyway.

It really isn't.

Oh dear, just caught up with this thread..seems to have gone a bit off target...let's get back to the real issue. Where are the ruddy announcements Hop Farm?.....not that it matters, I got early bird tickets (#smug), so will be going anyway, unless you've booked Madonna.....

'Tis nice on these cold winters days to look forward to the heady days of summer and Festivalling, so let's have a taster, please....

Just a thought, Don McLean on the prowl again, would fit with previous years headliners???

[Bar Bar Bar]

Hi all

I am going to Hop farm for the 1st time this year and I cannot wait!!! just waiting for them to announce the acts!!



also i think I can help with your 'debate'. Gazza is correct to a point, there IS a page showing the Killers as a rumour... but its on virtual festivals.i tried to post the link to prove he's right but it says IM A DESPERATE SPAMMER?? haha

but split u:p its www dot v i rtualfestivals dot com / hop-farm-festival-2012/rumours

so, moderator - give him his dues with that one.

I was told that fleetwood mac were a rumour too  but cant find this anywhere!! that would be awesome... or the police would be good!

hopefully we'll see soon

oh I see, as the mentioned site is a competitor, you cant mention them or it changes the text, very clever.

maybe they've tried and infiltrate this site and now they cant!

why? He was saying there was that rumour on this site. There never was.

That other site is filtered here because of a concerted spamming campaign that was driven in-house from there last summer. Until that happened it wasn't filtered.

Cheers mate, but in all honesty he doesn't have to. I was right but I was claiming 100 to be fair on Efests until I then realised I would have had both pages open and just confused one for the other, he was saying he guarantees I'm wrong it's on his site and he was right so fairplay to him really.

like i said, he got mixed up with the 2 sites. he was half right and wasnt lying about seeing the rumour.

Dont be arrogant now haha

is that you making a guess ?

as they have already sold advance tickets last September and http://www.hopfarmfe...m/be-right-back  is still up and running.

yer a complete an utter guess.

cant see how they sold tickets in September being a massive stumbling block to cancel a festival, im sure its written in to the purchase policy of the ticket. full refund most likely

just seems strange that nothing has been said much officially about this festival apart from a few small statements.
as far as i can remember this time last year they had all ready announced The Eagles and the rest of the Friday set with morrissey as SR.  .

hmm

[glasto-worker]

Vince who has been in a Promoter for many years does things his way.

He has spent money on establishing a Hop Farm Festival and there would have to be a bloody good reason before he would be willing to dump a event.

Time will tell but I would be very surprised if he pulled the plug. and I have known him for over twenty years.

So you keep saying.
