Yep was gonna ask earlier do they still have tour tickets to sell or something? Maybe they'll be moved to NME headline now if Skepta's dropped out.

justanothername Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Eh announcement. DFA, Petrol Girls, Black Peaks and Trash Boat are all decent additions for me and the later two are at least on the Kendrick day though I wish Trash Boat were playing The Pit instead. They'll probably fall flat on the main. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfa Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 @TheWaterswhat did you think of the Wombats yesterday? Crowd was so rowdy compared to the other 2 times I saw them, i fell over twice in the first song; and i've not fallen over before at a concert/festival, Kind of died down a bit after 1996 had to stop twice but yeah - it was very moshy.

Anyone can make an allegation, doesn’t mean it’s necessarily true. They deny it, and you’re innocent until proven guilty in this country. Bin them off because you think they’re a shit band- fine. But warning people off them because of an allegation that’s not been proved to be true? Doesn’t seem fair to me 1 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re over in July for their own shows (can’t wait for that btw!), and there’s seemingly nothing for them to stay around for between then and Reading. Thought there was a chance of Brian bringing his solo tour, but seemingly not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just struggling to think of a reason why they wouldn't have been announced yet? Maybe there's a chance they'll replace skepta on the NME (wishful thinking I know) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfish Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Looks like they've left a big space where Skepta was that they want to fill in, and Diplo's name is pretty small still. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIchael_scarn Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) Been busy all day and only just looked at the new acts and Christ that is another poor announcement. Spring King and DFA are good additions and Mike Shinoda will be cool for other people but I've never really rated Linkin Park to be honest. Also think the lineup has somehow got even worse with skepta being removed. Easily one of the highlights of the weekend. Might not even buy a day ticket for the kendrick day at this rate.

Mattymooz Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Clashfinder data for the new acts from the first day (top 16 acts) Overall top 25 (Kendrick getting rekt by the 00's indiepop) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
