  1. Not sure if a real or a fake …
  2. Don’t get the major dance acts being in the day time a problem, creamfields, parklife, SGP amongst many others like Tomorrowland and major American festivals all do it but suddenly it’s a problem at Leeds 😂 bore off 🥱
  3. Very quiet for announcement day 😞
  4. Hi anyone ever been to sgp before? I’m very experienced festival goer, never done sgp before so have a few questions if anyone can help 1) how strict is this 8 cans only rule? I’m confused as to why this is enforced (I get need to support the festival but 8 cans over four days is a piss take) 2) is their a shop on site so you can buy beer for the campsite? 3) how strict is the search if you were to hide some beer 😂 also the no personal speakers allowed? Is that really enforced? I have a few more so I’ll see what reaction this gets first before going on a mad q&a cheers
  5. Haha thanks for the advice mate, Im led to believe there will also be a shuttle bus running. Im not that fussed anyway wouldn’t mind the walk if it came to it
  6. Cool the digs I got seen be around a 10 min taxi journey or a 55 min walk is it going to be a issue getting taxis off your experience?
  7. Just purchased Friday and Saturday tickets for this year, never done mad cool before. Anyone that’s been got basic and interesting info on it? Pint prices, public transport accessibility after it? If anymore bands will be added? What’s the arena like do they have other things going on other than the main stages cheers I
  8. Sherlocks and Jake bugg secret sets on Friday at Leeds abit disappointed in that, but thats only because of don broco, yma6, and possible vaccines sets across the weekend. ah well will still have a great day I’m guessing they will both be the slots on the festival republic stage, can still see two slots on the bbc stage possibly three so fingers crossed for one more good addition
  9. I disagree tbf, they will make the announcements each morning of the day affected. No need to keep announcing every couple of hours just confusing, everyone craic on it be reet! if anyone enters the Leeds arena tonight could you take a picture of the alcohol prices thanks
  10. That will most likely be the case (with the exit leading to the campsites) I did get myself excited at the thought of just being able to buy myself a crate and have it in the arena, but surely they aren’t going to allow that after the strict rules they’ve had since it’s existence
  11. Just noticed the co-op this year is in the arena at Leeds? This will be a first as it’s normally in the village/campsite area,
  12. Yeah so I think the main stage moved in 2011 prior to that the dance stage/lock up was right at the back of it, tried showing this on the picture below (yellow mark was main, red was the shared dance/lock up)
  13. The stage will be facing diagonally towards where the nme stage use to be thats surely got to be the case, people will be able to pass round the back of the crowds that way, Quite fascinated as to where the other stages will be as they won’t want them in the middle (top of the hill) surely 🤷🏼‍♂️
  14. The problem with the stages not being well attended is quite simply down to the bookers. R&L has gone right downhill the last few years in booking bands, Especially on the festival republic and pit/lock up. they seem to just put all their energy in making the main stage headliner sets rammed by booking poor choices throughout. Those stages if booked correctly with similar types of bands can build an atmosphere throughout the day and it boot off for the headliner, unfortunately now it’s all just a mis matched bunch so no excitement can be built and other bands won’t want to gee up the group for the headliner/band after them because they have no similarity to them or even know who they are
  15. Ahh yes great spot, for some reason I thought they had postponed their whole tour untill next year. Are those dates new ones or re-arranged does anyone know? seems strange they haven’t kept the uk dates together, nice big gap for when R&L is also 😬😬
