Wouldn't dream of pissing them off they're not one of the best. They don't accept fair comment as reasonable, they only expect positive things to be said, which is as sad as it is stupid.

Had nothing but good dealings with them. They are very enthusiastic and protective of Boomtown, so they should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't dream of pissing them off Anyway back on topic I hope Y Not sort out the smaller stages this year. Way too crowded. Need bigger tents, failing that a second "outdoor" stage. Interesting to see if Global/Broadwich make changes or keep the setup. Hope the beer tent stays! Small stages were ridiculous - especially the Quarry. I think they're going to have to make it bigger if not an outdoor tent. I know of 2 bands whos set had to be cut short because people were getting crushed. DJ Fresh only played about 3 songs and he was the headline act on the first night. Any idea on the capacity this year, is it going up?

joepeace09 Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 Do we expect an announcement Monday along with Truck or before/ after that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make sense, they announced on Monday the 8th last year but then Truck was on the Thursday before, so really could be any time. Likely to be some point next week though, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Other Steve Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Do we think the lineup will be mainly KC crossover headliners or with YNot having a new management company do you think they will be more exclusive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamestudor97 Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 I reckon Courteeners are in with a shout this year? I mean yeah they released their new album in October but with the OT gig in May and rumoured for Glastonbury I reckon it's possible as they'll be on the festival circuit this year again?
