Red Day Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 9 minutes ago, Claire96 said: Completely agree. It's not like they have a huge amount of time to unload 5 day tickets. Very very strange. Unless they've not finalised the final headliner, which would be ridiculous at this point in time, or they're a huge act that's going to sell a shitload of tickets in a short period of time. It's DF that run trnsmt and I wouldn't hold out any hope of a massive name being announced. Years of waiting for big announcements for T have made me cynical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think DF promoted that show either which makes them more doubtful. Catfish/Stormzy co-headline is my prediction. Mainly because it’s completely out there but it’s the sort of thing I could see DF getting away with (and selling a shedload of tickets for).

R Shah Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Killers and AM are expensive so itll probably be a slightly cheaper booking. Thinking it will be someone unexpected with not many or no dates announced. Paramore, BMTH or Royal Blood for me. Royal blood playing no UK festivals so far this year just doesnt make sense.

thelemon Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 In terms of accommodation, what would be the cheapest/best value for money option? Cheap hotel/hostel I'm assuming? I'm going to assume prices get put up as well to capitalise on the festival, anywhere do it cheap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Not for TRNSMT, but I booked a hotel for 30th June / 1st July and a lot of places are already full - and in those that aren't prices are already way higher than usual.

harryomatic Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 You'd imagine that with BBC's Biggest weekend in May, Electric Fields in September, and now this in July, we can 100% count Noel Gallagher out of the last TRNSMT headline slot. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/noel-gallagher-to-bring-high-flying-birds-to-edinburgh-castle-1-4693154 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a new hotel being built across the road from me, a Radisson Red. Should be open by then. No idea what prices will be like though.

Stuielooie Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 @thelemeon (Sorry cant quote on this device). I booked flights to Glasgow for the second weekend (Thurs-Mon) as I'm staying quite far outside the city. Easyjet recommended some hotels that were in the price range of £400-£700 for 4 nights. There were cheaper options, which were most likely further outside of Glasgow. I just checked airBNB briefly, and it looked like there were some good options around the £50 a night mark.

CaledonianGonzo Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Yeah....those options sound pretty pricey. My usual option for gigs is the new Travelodge on Queen St. I paid £28 for that after Kendrick last week, albeit that was on a Sunday night.

thelemon Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Yeah, cheers everybody. I looked at a Travelodge which wasn't that bad but it said low availability so has probably gone or will go soon. I haven't actually bought tickets and not sure if I will but my mate was asking me to look into it as a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claire96 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 There must be an announcement in the next week or so, it's nearly March! I'm surprised they've not even dropped hints at all about the final headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
