Line up prediction game 2017

Recommended Posts

firstly an apology for not really finishing last years league, which despite his moaning lochland won ! I'll try and be around more this year, home life dependant. so without much more to do I guess it's time to dust off the line up prediction game for 2017, the rules are the usual

 

Choose 20 bands that you think might play, either big or small it doesn't matter, please don't put on the site regulars as if we included them then everyone's list would be the same ! So no craig charles, hotpots, riot jazz band, Thingymabobs and Thingmajigs or Tim burgess ! (Any other site regulars people can think of ?)

 

You can make changes until the 11.59pm on the day before the first announcement comes out. The date isn't known yet but it will be well publicised and probably pretty soon !

Before the cut off point you can change your 20 as many times as you want, just edit them or repost, it doesn't matter which

 

Whoever has the most acts at the time the final line up announcement is made will be the winner and the other people entering have to buy them a pint at festival (usually thurlow)

 

In the event of a draw we'll use who has the most headline acts across the stages to decide then the headline support acts if there's still no winner.

Don't forget it's just for fun and if I disappear, then I'll be back eventually

i knew i won ! did you collect the beers on behalf last year then thurlow?

I don't think I did collect any beers last year

I had a drink with bottonrob and Cnumb at the meet but I think we each bought a round or 2 rather than anyone paying the competition debts

Thurlow I'd take Alabama 3, vintage trouble, the coral and Kate tempest :-)

youve got a few on there I haven't heard of so will give the vids a spin.

were these who you hope or think will play ?

I'd be happy enough with any of my prediction's, there's a mix of acts who have played before, acts I want to see again who haven't played, a few local bands  and some up coming acts who I think would go down well at the festival

Bad news I'm afraid. Just had a facebook message from Belinda Carlisle (on my wall if anyone wants a look!) to say she is not playing KC as she is in LA that weekend. Will have a rethink and amend my final choice... unless this is a double bluff?
