  1. Slaves sounds promising to me based off this, vaccines also - i reckon at least one will be quite rocky based on the previous few years one or both has been
  2. gfa

    Electronica/Dance

    Anyone able to send me the Printworks presale link? Never received mine (nevermind - finally got it)
  3. Those Gorillaz guests are insane - hoping some of them come to Boardmasters this weekend. More songs had guests than didn’t on setlist.fm and there were about 15 different ones.
  4. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/gorillaz/2021/the-o2-arena-london-england-3b8f6084.html crazy amount of guests with Gorillaz last night - hopefully some will be coming down to Boardies!
  5. It will have been needed for Field Day so i guess if you have it - may as well use it
  6. I feel like the fans will be fairly calm though given its landfill indie. Will be busy but shouldn’t be too bad. Which way is it going also? From the r1 stage to main shouldn’t be bad as theres so much crowd control stuff but the other way could be as theres way less if its the same as before. I’m sure they have it all thought out anyway Most of these replacements were week of and due to corona for Latitude, whereas these are a fair bit before. Maybe they were banking on US acts being ok and are now stuck as they didn’t get enough replacements together. I guess they are just waiting for when they planned to announce the final lineup and will replace them then (or announce something if a big act drops out as its mostly been smaller ones)

    All sold out dates have more tickets releasing in the presale tomorrow at 11am - signup on their website. probably booking onto the chemical brothers one myself, spent so much on shows in the second half of this year can’t really afford much more
  8. 24 cans again (only 2 wine though for some reason so cans is the way to go)
  9. £9.50 pints is complete bollocks, i saw the tiktok as well its obviously bs. I reckon desperados will have their own special bar like White Claw are having then it will be like carling/fosters etc as the main sponsor. Really cannot see Desperados as the main beer and not a lager
  10. Its really not that far - bigger issue is bar queues i reckon although from memory the queues are never too bad as barely anyone is 18 haha. definitely miss the R1 tent - leaves a lot of mid level acts without a suitable stage in my opinion- if they don’t have a fad hit or blow up just before the festival then they will be like 2pm on the main stage with no crowd or clashing with main stage headliners in FR/Dance/1xtra. Also completely stops them booking say Pendulum who are too big to headline dance but would be shit mid-main stage in the day, same for like Bicep too and lots of other dance acts given how much DNB etc is growing
  11. Ah yeah my bad, they must have one thats inbetween the Latitude and Reading one as i don’t think Latitude’s would cut it to be honest (although im sure they would be happy to save the money)
  12. hide it in your tent bag or reseal water bottles with spirits i’d say. pisstake limit —- Given the stupid limit, anyone know who the main alcohol sponsors are? I can see desperados and old mout but surely these won’t be the main alcohol? desperados only would be a very expensive weekend haha
  13. 100%, biggest show Liam has ever done solo and first show back opens around 12-2pm generally, planning to rock up around midday myself The Latitude one is tiny versus Reading main stage, i reckon it could be the one from Wireless/Community - far bigger than Latitude’s
  14. Tomorrow apparently some guy in comments just said. I have a spare 4 day weekend also if your interested, mate had to pull out and needs it gone 🙂
  15. If headlining R&L, the second biggest festival in the UK (and biggest by joint capacity) is his ceiling then i’m sure he’ll be able to sleep happy tonight
  16. 6 mediocre headliners to be cheaper is exactly the point. Also having no Radio 1 is hardly safer when the other 4 or 5 tents are still about, it will help a bit but in the grand scheme of things it will make no difference since Covid will be running rampant at R&L regardless. I hope it comes back but its the kind of thing they can't quickly go back from in my opinion.
  17. https://clashfinder.com/s/boardies2021 Clashfinder up, just made it now - lots needs adding but the main stuff is there. Times should be fairly accurate - the View is a new stage so its a complete guess that the headliners will finish before main stage one, but it seemed likely to be as its indie.
  18. They are huge in the UK and for the R&L audience. They are basically in the glorified sub spot also. They put on good live shows and have sets full of good singalongs. Far more worthy than some recent headliners for the R&L crowd than like Kings of Leon where 90% of the audience only knows 2 songs. They have definitely worked their way up too, they have pretty much headlined every festival in the country at this point. Also its their only shows this year in the UK (and only in the world except some random swiss festival), its not like they are playing everywhere.
  19. tion wayne reluctantly (i just cannot stand MGK) slowthai idkhowtheyfoundme alfie
  20. Tyrants is a must, they will surely be closing their biggest ever shows with it. Would only be right.
  21. 20 reported cases in sussex as of like wednesday last week. i know 20 people personally who have it, myself included. 0.05% is bs
