Obviously brain says seahorses but they aren’t even a thing now
-
Whatever that is 😂😂
-
A 3 day fest sounds decent and realistic considering the headliners available. last year was superb for the 4 days I went but with a new venue I’m a bit more apprehensive. Let’s see what the first announcements are - hopefully something tomorrow with the build up this week However, knowing mad cool ….. probably not 😂
-
I agree if it was year o year, however 2 years in a row really isn't an issue unless its headliners
-
Not every band is 1) great live or 2) available every year.🤣 the other thing to add is that the "status" of bands can change drastically year on year, especially when starting out. If certain bands put on a great show one year at a festival and fans are raving about it, why not reward them with a repeat visit. It certainly wouldn't bother me as there could be a band i miss one year due to a clash that i can then see the following year. as long as its only a few repeat bands and they are bands worth repeating - no issue
-
Because they are great live and available?
-
Seems like most people agree - i felt bad typing it but now i feel vindicated LOL Luckily i saw them at Portsmouth Guildhall after they released the first album - that was a proper gig!! Certainly better than when i saw them at Mad Cool a few years ago.
-
Am I the only one who finds Arctic Monkeys more recent shows a complete borefest? I quite like the new music but the live shows to me are just boring.

If you want value for money - you could look abroad? In the UK Reading / Leeds Fest is rubbish, IOW is awful line ups, download is good if you like metal and hard rock, however Glasto is in a league of its own. You can go to Glasto, not watch 1 band and have the time of your life. Rock Werchter, Primavera, Mad Cool and Sziget festivals are all great and much more affordable in terms of tickets and generally have great line ups - all abroad though and they really are about the line ups - still not a patch on Glasto. You really can not compre Victorious with Glasto
-
Little Simz for me - its a masterpiece of an album. Self Esteem close second
-
Echoing my statement above, as I know I mentioned the negativity. I knew it would be a great festival but you weren’t wrong beforehand - they need to up their game in communication. im glad you had a great time
-
Hey I know I had a dig at the negativity in the past but I’m really glad you had a great time. I’d imagine this festival will remain that way - a complete cock up before hand but an amazing fest once there. I had an amazing time bringing back loads of amazing memories and covid 😂😂
-
I made a call on the Thursday night to watch Sigrid and st Vincent on the third stage. I love rock but seen killers 8 times and didn’t fancy imagine dragons Sigrid was surprisingly good and a bit of a guilty pleasure but St Vincent was out of this world. Absolutely superb. im glad I mixed it up a bit
-
Exactly that
-
Does anyone know how you can find out how much money you have spent / have left on your wristbands? I’ve got some idea but did think that some of the prices I was being charged last night seemed incorrect
-
Anyway - the festival starts today - we still have a decent array of bands although not amazingly diverse. After going previously - after the adrenaline wears off - stay hydrated, wear sun cream, don’t pre drink to a level where you can hardly speak at 5pm and enjoy yourselves. That’s my advice. You will crash and burn in this heat otherwise I hope that after the previous negativity (some deserved for sure)….. the next few days go well for everyone. Been a pleasure debating and chatting with you all on here again this year. I’m getting old now so might be my last one. Stay safe and have fun kids 👍🏼 Till next year………… maybe
-
I’m nit sure I understand what they were supposed to do. He pulled out a week before. I’m just thankful the festival is on
-
Where do you find your wristband code? There is nothing on my wristband
-
Alt-J at 8 in the morning LOL
-
Understood, but my point remains, any band that pulls out will more than likely be blamed on covid and its always an issue for ANY festival that ANY band could pull out because of covid
-
Maybe some? Maybe none? Who knows! Maybe @Ken19 does? He has not replied to that comment. However there were drop outs at Glasto because of Covid and that may well also be the case for Mad Cool Lets face facts - if anyone doesn't turn up - it will be blamed on Covid!
-
We will agree to disagree - either way, what ever they are doing, they will have to do it soon or muse will have to play for hours - I’d be happy with that
-
No - I read it clearly - it’s says they are “working hard to find a replacement” not “we will definitely have a replacement” They may well have one or pull something out of the hat but I think they will probably bump bands up the list We will have to wait and see what happens.
-
They will have to do something unless Muse play a 4 hour set - 2 headliners is a lot of time to fill on the two main stages. I'm not sure why we are "owed" any replacements. The only thing we are owed is some information on who's playing / not paying and whats going on.
-
I seriously think it’s only us on this forum who are even that bothered in fairness. 99.9 percent of the people who bought tickets probably just think “I’ve got a ticket” - they’ll go to the festival - a few will moan when a few bands don’t turn up, most won’t. Everyone has fun, festivals are back, we all wait until the next years headliners are named, we all get tickets because it’s an amazing line up………. Then we will all moan about the same crap we moaned about this year 🤷♂️
