Tbf with Las Vegas they could have the same line-up every year. I'm actually surprised they don't have the same event running the same line-up for a few days in a row. If I was flying in, I'd probably do it twice just so I could see everyone clash free.

Are we really talking Call of Duty Day 1 on Gamepass? Is that what this means?

Someone should tell them if they've got Polyphonic Spree to reunite, that's still only classed as 1 headliner.

I've put them all, from 20 down to 1, into a spotify playlist if anyone wants to have easy access: Favourite fact is Fame Academy winner David Sneddon is the main writer on National Anthem.

Great list, although trying not to think about the omission of both Chemtrails and Born to Die. Video Games though, I remember the first time I heard it, and saw her, when she performed it on Jools Holland. I believe it was her first ever televised appearance. The nerves and anxiety just add to the whole thing. I was properly taken aback at the time and she became an instant favourite.

I got the PS5 version of Ghost of Tsushima when it came out in August and played it near exclusively until christmas eve, when I finally clocked it. Woulda taken me a hundred years if it had to load between fast travels. Everything's piling up around it, and I got Death Stranding for chrimbo. Thinking of putting that off until after I've spent a likely 6 months doing the new Horizon game.

If I was the lead in what is set to be one of the biggest films of all time (which just so happens to be the biggest of the pandemic era) and a main part of 2 of the top 5 grossing films of all time, I'd definitely say I didn't wanna make any more. Walt Disney's iced head itself will be showing up with the fattest cheque imaginable.

Going through the SCUZZ list and my hairs are standing on end. My mate was going out with the tour manager for these sorts of bands in 2004/2005. I was AAA at 36 Crazyfists, Poison the Well/Dillinger Escape Plan, Atreyu, Funeral for a Friend. His primary focus was Bullet For My Valentine, so I watched them go from supports at the Wulfrun to headlining the Brum Academy in their own right. Ended up on Whitesnake's tourbus at one point with David Coverdale. Snuck a VHS of Dr Doolittle 2 on 36CF's bus, and secreted it in their creepy little cubbies. It was a weird condition of entry, I must admit, but who was I to argue? I was 20 years old and suddenly I was palling around in dressing rooms, hanging out with all these rockbands I'd been reading about and listening to. Dillinger were having a moustache growing competition and showering in groups together.

We got Sky in 2001. MTV2 and KERRANG! were good at first, but then the latter became really soft. Just all back catalogue, the same Guns N Roses songs 24 hours a day. SCUZZ on the other hand was playing the bands that the K magazine was actually featuring. Salute u SCUZZ.

I've seen a few of their live performances online and my understanding is she's allergic to shirts.

Their whistlestop tour around europe in the first half of next year seems more promotional than money minded. Could definitely see them on the other in 2022. They've got Lil Stevie's blessing https://twitter.com/StevieVanZandt/status/1453800280064208899?s=20

Sugababes v1.0 headlining next year's Mighty Hoopla. Tour announcement soon?

If anyone hasn't sorted themselves a coldplay ticket, Big Green Coach just emailed to say they have pitch standing for all dates.

Went out to see VUKOVI at the Birmingham Academy 3 saturday night. Usually a good venue, like a pub gig with the best sound imagineable. 250 capacity, so I've never had to queue to get in until tonight as people were being pulled out at the doors to do lateral flow tests in the smoking area. Got in just in time for for support Delaire the Liar. One of those selection box sort of acts. a RATM bassline here, a bit of My Chem there, a skirt from Blue Banana - all aimed squarely at edgy 13 year olds. Found myself drifting off mentally, standing stone still at the back of the venue like a bored parent. Press to Meco were next. Sounded better than on record imo, which is to say I wasn't enamoured with them prior to the event. They're like a 3 man Royal Blood with the odd Maiden riff, and seem like really nice guys. I'll listen to their next album for sure and I can picture them being great step-dads in the future. VUKOVI came on to a feverish crowd. C.L.A.U.D.I.A sounded massive, and they had a great run of songs. The singer complained about the front lighting and had it turned off, plunging her into shadow. In what would prove to be the busiest night of any sound man's life, a punter came over to complain that he couldn't hear the vocals. Wasn't the set-up, but the singer just didn't sing that loud at points. A fan brought roses for the band, and another shouted they were from everybody. The crowd started singing the Backstreet Boys song, and the drummer joined in with the perfect beat. By the time the guitarist got involved, the singer shut the whole thing down. Pretty funny. The songs sound bigger than venues like this. SLO went off. Hard to predict these days where bands are gonna end up, but a run of full size academies seems likely in the next 2 years.
