In fairness this is also because their later stuff is absolute dross...

Boomtown Chapter Three: Revolution of Imagination

I respect that. I actually like the secret line-up approach, but it is nice to have a few names to get excited about in the build-up. -

"Expect reggae royalty", Damian probably nailed then? -
I think I was making a tit of myself dancing to The Prodigy at the big head around this time, before having to crawl back into my tent and dann near freezing to death.

What's first? Mr Brightside?

You've managed to craft a lineup where I legit might spend every night at the FR (possible exception for Phoebe)

Seems like the could be some crossover with Stowaway: -
As someone who is absolutely not going I love this whiplash of everything from bagging Madonna for an all-timer with Dave as a sub to Shania up top with Elbow as a sub. This feels like such a soft year everywhere that I give this 50/50 odds of being a top 3 lineup in all of Europe (for general booking quality, not for my taste).

The only venue in Yorkshire that can block out the sun
-
Shatter, what a belter. Haven't heard that one for a good long while.
-
Honestly, if she's so bothered about where she plays on a lineup, I would recommend that she checks where she's going to play on the lineup before agreeing to the booking...

Lana in shambles rn

Surely in the Year of our Lord 2024, Elbow will not get a sub slot? R&L basically have Lana Del Rey subbing, would be a bit of a clanger if Glasto get Elbow.

I for one can't wait for the Philip Morris Introducing Stage.
-
Reading through the last few pages folk here seem to have got a bit puritanical, this is Glastonbury not the Anne Frank Haus. So what if someone got a bit wobbly and had what sounds like a wonderful time and lasting memory? I imagine 90% of the posters here go in for some kind of altered state to enhance the experience, what do you think the cider tent is for?

It wasn’t a chart hit but I’d argue Red Right Hand counts for being the unofficial anthem of every british lad with a bad haircut and a lifetime ban from Reflex.
-
Now now, we’ll be having none of that kind of talk
-
Actually baffling that real human beings would pay that much to see the fkin eagles, man. The most middle of the road, pedestrian tunes imaginable.
-
Might actually be worse poster design than Parklife
-
Actually banning the guy is hilariously petty. He was posting the odd US lineup, he was hardly threatening the integrity of the forum...
-
Funny that eh? Tbh I always thought it was a mistake booking acts that big because they suck up all the oxygen in the room. They should have stuck with The Specials and Lauryn Hill and then no-one would be calling the recent lineups weak.
-
I think Boomtown’s reasoning is that they want people to come for the atmosphere/ world building rather than for any particular booking. Kind of apples to oranges though as the largest act Boomtown ever booked is maybe Gorillaz?
-
Alas, it's been a long day and I don't think my brain is really working. Sorry bout that.
-
I feel like you are wilfully ignoring the existence of multiple stages. Why would you possibly put Kae on the largest stage when they could simply headline a smaller stage?
