mr flow Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Really good line up. Nice and varied and some real surprises. Roll on August! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Bit of a stinker for my tastes, hate both Limp Bizkit and Die Antwoord and the DJ line up isn't really landing for me just yet - hoping a few interesting things are unearthed in the coming weeks.

Winslow Leach Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I'm perfectly happy with that, not massive amounts I'm excited for but the festival was always the main draw for me. Enter Shikari seem oddly low down though, don't they still get Radio 1 play and pretty big crowds? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Looks like quite a fun lineup. They can be pretty pleased with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseboy11 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Limp Bizkit at Reading the other year was one of the most fun sets I've witnessed, great booking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDunlop Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Limp Bizkit & Jimmy Cliff are must sees. Omar Souleyman was great at Glastonbury in '11. Elvana should be a laugh. I always enjoy watching Eats Everything. Charlotte De Witte & Enrico Sanguilano catch my eye & Ill definitely be up for some psytrance whilst Im there. Fun line up. Looking forward to it.

glastonburynoodles Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Slightly underwhelming, guess it's a good job I appreciate how entertaining the smaller obscure venues are. Maybe it's the year to be immersive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted February 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 they've fattened out their band bookings, haven't they? Good move! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostypaw Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 A bit of an aside - has anyone looked at their website lately? Lots is changing. Wild West has become Copper County (I suspect a mining rather than proximity of PoPoHQ reference) Mayfair is Paradise Heights Chinatown is Metropolis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasperella Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I think it's pretty epic - So much variety! Morcheeba, Limp Bizkit and DJ Marky at the same festival. Amazing. And what are Soulfly doing on there??? Now I just have to convince my friends that we must go for Boomtown over Bestival. Before the tickets sell out!

Andre91 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Wow there’s a lot there that gets me excited. Die Antwoord, Limp Bizkit and Enter Shikari is incredible. Napalm Death, Soulfly and a few others on that stage are great also. Depending on how shite the Leeds lineup is, this could be a real possibility.

Noticed on their website that Limp Bizkit are down for Town Centre, not Lion's Den. Surely that's wrong? Unless there's another headliner to come?

It's fun to go home and see the familiar faces, but the wild reunion houseparty around your best mate's is the real highlight. It's managed to recapture that first "HOLY F*CK" moment of the original Shangri-La every year, pretty much every district. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t worry, old chum. Early days yet and there’ll be enough to satisfy come the full line-up. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
