    I’m as happy with it as you are. I’ll just never knowingly post BS on here. 

    Let it go man, you won't win.

    Everyone else knows you weren't bullshitting, you just happen to pip some others to information.

    All I ask for is an apology. 

    Good luck with that mate. You're more likely to get an apology from Axl. Well done lad

    Thanks. Reckon Lewis and Lizzo are two of the pyramid subs?

    I'll take that.

    Vindication for @roughbloke

    But Lizzo into GnR will do very nicely.

    Capaldi sitting in the middle of that, however, is something I'm strong on not loving. 

    Nothing we didn't already know or have confirmed anyway.

    Well done @roughbloke

    I'd actually be down for a top 3 of Guns, Lizzo and Capaldi.

    Let's not forget though, no way are they going to book Guns to replace a female headliner.

    Saw a coachella prediction on Reddit I thought was pretty cool, got me excited to pick apart another lineup.

    I don't mind Friday but the other two are god awful.

    It’s still only 4am west coast time so we won’t know for a while yet if it’s imminent or not. 

    I didn't expect it until Wednesday morning here anyway

    The payment issued screwed us over in the coach sale but my brothers mate got ours in the main sale. So just to clarify, Googlepay works with Seetickets? Could be useful to know for trying in the resale

    yes, set it up before hand

    This week yes unless they have had a drama and don’t have their headliners locked in. I’ve looked at a few forums and it doesn’t look like there’s anything “yet” to suggest it isn’t coming. Once Coachella’s social media platforms get going we can expect it to be imminent.

    It could come tonight California time… so we could wake up with it in the morning. 

    Looks like the most solid rumours are Bad Bunny, Frank Ocean, BLACKPINK, Rosalia, Skrillex, The Kid Laroi,  Kali Uchis, Justice. Third headliner not clear and there will be tonnes of other big names in there. I reckon Lil Nas X will be on the bill, as well as Olivia Rodrigo.

    Right, I thought it might be tomorrow due to bank holiday? But then I'm not sure bank holiday would matter for that festival.

    Yet 2022’s resale was very successful for many here, as I recall. The cost of living will factor in massively this year, potentially making more tickets than normal available. It’ll still take perseverance of course, but there are some unusual variables in the mix. 

    The issue with the resale was the actual system being shit. I was through very easily within several minutes bit the bank wouldn't take the payment through verify. Since then I've made sure I use googlepay through seetickets as there is no verify.

    Demand will still exceed supply. It'll just skew the festival demographics.

    It won't forever be the hardest festival to get a ticket for as people won't be able to find the money.

    That wasn't the argument though dude. I was comparing this year's to the Pyramid lineup that seems to get most "Fuck me that was huge" vibes. If we get the rumoured trio, people would be very excited in the majority. It would also be very good. 

    Just what I'd like. I agree the rumored trio would be seen in general as huge but it is a year I could pass on. 

  9. 14 minutes ago, Superscally said:

    Agreed. For the general punter it's colossal. Might be the biggest for the casual of all time. 

    Note: Not my opinion but average festival goer thinks:

    AM > Neil Young

    GnR > Springsteen. Maybe a tie.

    Elton > Blur

     

     

    Out of all of those.

    I'd personally not have either of the two first.

    I'd go for Dua Lipa, GNR and Blur because I'd rather Elton not be as far gone in his career to do it. I'm happy I've seen him but I don't need to repeat it. That same could be said for Axl

    As a trio though I'd actually like to see a Dua Lipa, Madonna and Taylor Swift.

    I wasn't questioning that at all. That's a quote from you and I couldn't work out what the feck you were saying. You've explained it a lot better there, but your previous comments...were in 2022...and I can't be arsed getting involved now.

    Agreed. I had an awesome end to 2022 so I've not interest in starting 23 on anything but positive vibes.

    "But I don't need anyone telling me that Black Britain is not a thing to do with Stormzy as it may not be the thing it is now without him."

    I haven't got a clue what this means. 😄

    No one is telling you that.

    Black Britain is a big thing that Stormzy was behind and his work and influence has helped improve and change the face of it. Helped the black community and it's culture.

    It's a good thing. I'm not sure why you would now questioning the positives of his impact in that. 

    The difference for me is, in my view which is only mine he wasn't big enough or good enough for the slot he got. I am allowed that view like others are allowed opposite.

    But anyway. It's 2023 now, move on etc.

    So Arctics, GNR and Elton.

    Decent trio, would look much better if Dua Lipa was there so fingers crossed for a curve ball. 

    Exciting to think we’ll know for certain in just a few months. 

    Happy New Year to you all. 

    Yeah fuck the rest of that shit. Let just get back on topic. You won't please all and not all with like all. That's life

    If you got cocaine at the dentist, think we'd all go a bit more regularly. I've had shitloads of work done on my teeth and can guarantee this is not a thing. Novocaine, also known as procaine, is a painkiller used by dentists.

    I'm not saying it is, but didn't say it.

    We wouldn't all because it's not for me at all.

    Something that you find in cocaine was mentioned in the conversation.

    I don't actually care who believes it or who doesn't. My point is more that statement is utter shite.

    If I go to the dentist and I get a numbing agent, I get it because it's part of the treat.

  14. Just now, GrumpyRaver said:

    I’d love to see what you’re like on coke if this is you sober… 😂

    You're never likely to see it. Plus I don't need to dentist anytime soon haha.

    Anyway, it's new year and I'm off to London to meet people and celebrate.

    All enjoy.

    I knew I would regret asking

    Well you did ask so I said. He will continue the he talks shit...as I said he talks shit because he knows I'm not going to dig and find the post and I'm not.

    But let's be honest, it that unlikely a conversation about he affects of drugs and alcohol came up on here? No.

    Is it unlikely that someone one here started banning people based on his own made up accusations of what the person had said? No because it happened. Half the forum wanted to pull away.

    One last thing, who else has taken their up/down vote counter away because they were worried over the previous period of their reputation? Him again.

    Not me as I'll say my view regardless of all that shit.

    What other billy big bollocks has such an infatuation about being correct over acts everytime and can't bare it for it not to happen? The same person in denial signs are all there.

    So when we come to who talks bollocks and again a this post below as that's all he's got, it's in fact ego up his own arse Neil.

    as i said he talks shite.

    Keep taking those painkillers you angry man.

    1 hour ago, Zoo Music Girl said:

    I think you mean novocaine.

    You miss the point. It's not what I meant, it's what he meant.

    I disputed drugs and I'm against them etc etc very heavily at the time and nothing has changed

    His defence and comeback was do I visit the dentist etc which led to fillings blah blah. And that if I've had then I accept drug taking. At that point I shut it off because that was ludicrous.

    1 hour ago, Superscally said:

    I'll ask you a couple of questions to help me answer more accurately. Is Black Britain a bad thing and what is your interpretation of it?

    No Black Britain is not a bad thing at all. Equal rights. I grew up around some people who were treated like they shouldn't be here and had a choice etc etc.

    But I don't need anyone telling me that Black Britain is not a thing to do with Stormzy as it may not be the thing it is now without him.

    6 minutes ago, Neil said:

    you know he's talking shite, its the only thing he does.

    my painkillers of choice nowadays are tramadol and pregabalin (i have a lot of pain to manage).

    So do we from you on here.

  16. 21 minutes ago, philipsteak said:

    What the blithering fuck are you talking about?

    Drug addicted dental patients? Did not see that coming.

    A conversation Neil had about a drugs argument a while back that apparently you accept to take cocaine when you have treatment at a dentist because they inject it to lower the pain.

    Now if you want hear something pathetic, the above is all you need. Having a filling is something I can never imagine I want but yet I am happy to take cocaine when this happens.

    Nor did I but I learnt it's thing that day apparently. Clearly it's not and it's a bullshit reason to defend your drug use.

  17. 2 hours ago, Neil said:

     

     

    So what you done is not look for the video of it and snort some coke instead.

    Next you'll be bullshitting that it's okay because everyone who goes to a dentist is a drug addict because they can't take the pain.

    Guess what everyone!

     

    First link that can be found on YouTube.

    @Neil will say that is fake though. I say put your downvote count back up like proper man and accept it rather than removing it knowing people were going to come at you for being a arse.

    You forgot the Beastie Boys!

    It sounds like you do have an issue.  Yes the festival tries to diversify - what are the reasons for that?  They don't want women and black people headlining because women and black people get paid less.  They want to get different people going to the festival - part of that is different types of music, and yes there are blind spots, e.g. metal - and they seem to have done a bloody good job of that based on ticket demand.

    Sounds like if they are going with a rap act you'd prefer if a white boy performing.  By your own reference of 50 Cent 'rap is black music primarily', and you've no issue with a rap headliner as you've no issue with what type of music headlines, but unless it's someone you approve of they're going for a 'cheap black option'?

    Beatie Boys are more rap rock, similarly to RATM.

    Look for his interview on it. He does an interview stating exactly this and says the problem for many people is that a white man does it better, meaning Eminem in this case. They aren't my original words. 

    I don't disapprove of Stormzy like you suggest, but he there is a top of of what Glastonbury will pay for acts. They don't all get paid the same, just the bigger artists will get paid what the top line the festival will pay. My point was that Stormzy would have entered into the cheaper quote for a diverse booking in what the festival was going for. A lot of why they would have gone for him was due to what he had done for the community he comes from.

    Yes the wording wasn't the best but essentially that what what I meant. I don't really give a shit about who turns it around etc and who downvotes stuff. Move on...you're entertaining yourself, not me.

    I'm not racist but I have a massive issue with the festival booking a black Briton who represents black Britain. 

    Look below at the comment. Google it, this is why Stormzy became who he is.

    7 hours ago, MEGABOWL said:

    ‘Black Britain’ is not a music scene. He wasn’t booked because he was a “cheap black rapper” he was booked because Emily thought he was good enough to headline, in which she was correct.

    So and see what Stormzy campaigned for then. You know he done loads of charity work that went to Black British causes yes. It's not just made up.
