    2025 Headliners

    Bruce sold considerably more tickets

    I’m a casual. It’s was alright. 6.5/10

    Doubt any of them would bring an Elton/Stones crowd

    2025 Headliners

    That could just be an album of mainly the Chroma releases, so may not count out a break

    He's got 4 albums, with another on the way - more material than Dua and Billie.
  6. Not sure why she'd do a Fleetwood Mac song she doesn't sing... There's also plenty of stuff you can strip, but i don't think you'd need much - wasn't paying full attention to my watch, but think all of that came in at 1.5 hours, with an end of set/start of encore break, and at least 20 minutes of her extended ramblings between songs.

    What gives this impression? Are they bigger than when they last subbed? Absolutely not...
  8. I was only disputing the point about Pyramid and Other headliners. LCD aren’t Electronica though…
  9. Oh, i fully agree... was just saying that the idea that it's been years since any electronic acts have been booked to headline the Other is nonsense.
  10. Not sure if you're using the purist's definition of electronica here, but either way... not really true... 2024 - Disclosure (and a half point for Dua) 2023 - nada 2022 - Pet Shop Boys 2019 - Chems 2017 - Major Lazer 2016 - Disclosure (and a half point for New Order) 2015 - Rudimental, Deadmau5, and the Chems
  11. Both… only long queue I had for food was getting crumble outside Left Field on Sunday night, but that coincided with the end of Avril, and only time I felt busy on walkways was heading to Janelle, but was walking against the Shania tide
  12. Me too… other than Sugababes and Thur night Silver Hayes, I didn’t encounter any problems with crowds at all. Felt really chill to me.
  13. Wonderful, beautifully poetic - and from the sets I saw too, stunningly accurate and insightful - stuff, as always. And I promise, I will spend a full set with you next time we’re both on the farm! I really should have brought my group over at Genysys and iicon, but took the easy option of not trying to herd high cats… 😞
  14. I think the piece was suggesting a number of (mainly sensible) things to address the problem... Stop programming acts that are obviously too big for an area and move them to bigger capacity stages, renegotiate the Thursday main stage licence ban, have main stages going later, use the fallow year to do a major rethink of the site layout of reduce those bottlenecks, put more electronic music on main stages to reflect the current tastes of crowd...
  15. The guy definitely was at the festival, and has been many times. Formerly of this parish, and well respected for his info and knowledge, in fact.
