Perks Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Dudes, anyone know if Godiva is happening again this year? Heard it was July 3rd - 5th, but the dates are unconfirmed. Nothing on their twitter page, am not on lamebook so cant check that. Last year was so much fun, hope its on again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaminglippy Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Cheers Scottie. Ah really, cool, must defo be on then. Didn't even realise they were still going. Saw them at Victorious in the summer and they were really good. One of them bands that you sort of forgot how many decent tunes they've got. My money is on Charlatans to headline.

Perks Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) Charlatans is a good shout. I'm going for Ash.....or Fun Lovin Criminals...or both with FLC on the Friday :-) Wonder when we'll hear more news. Edit: Just heard Ash on 6music. they didn't mention Godiva when they talked festivals. I'm amending my guess to just FLC...for now Edited February 18, 2015 by Perks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Few places have it marked in at July 3rd - 5th. Still 4 months to go, with it being a ticketless event they can announce it later, as long as sponsorship and everything else is being done in background. Pigeon Detectives is a nice start, seen them twice, once they were great another time they were awful, but I think that is when they started to believe their own hype. FLC aren't big enough to headline the Saturday and the Friday is older acts, Id take them on the line up though. Charlatans would be a good shout, their tour is this week, so maybe will be announced after that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read somewhere they were thinking of making it a ticketed and paid event at some point. Whilst that wouldn't be ideal, if it meant the difference between it keeping going or not happening I'd be happy to chuck a tenner at it.

There's been talk about making it every other year, a small fee they would be able to make it an annual event. Has anyone been to festwich? It's another free event in Manchester with tribute bands.

Callum_96 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 I had heard a rumour that it wasn't happening this year and it didn't surprise me then The Pigeon Detectives said they were doing it so something must be happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah could be couldnt they, when did they announce the line up last year? I hope its the Levs, they'd bring a great crowd, ah man, I'm going to be disappointed when its not them now!! EDIT: Just searched, it was the 7th March...so we could be in for an announcement soon http://www.efestivals.co.uk/forums/topic/183291-godiva-2014/ Edited March 10, 2015 by Perks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum_96 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'm all for the idea of The Charlatans doing it, I've never been good with predicting the headliners for Godiva, although I'm sure The Enemy are in with a shout (unfortunately) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckysalt Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) I just thought oh maybe Franz Ferdinand as I saw them on the right side of efests in gigs, but nope, theyre in Europe at the time. Maybe they might have pulled something out the bag and got the Manics??? They're free, their tour has sold out and only have Latitude booked? Another option which might be more realistic is Travis?

Be happy with either of them. Manics would be phenomenal though. Ocean Colour Scene maybe. Wish they'd get a bloody move on!
