    I don't want to make an entirely new thread but my friend reminded me about the nofx shows slam dunk are putting on and they are meant to have some special guests. So far only san diego has any listed outside of their 2 day fest thing in texas and theyre not really big names, anyone have any idea what might be the undercard?

    I tried some quick checks of nova rock, rock am ring and most of the bands you would expect are already at rival uk festivals so im kind of stumped

    Lagwagon are in europe in the days ust before?

    Not sure whether it'll be festivals but they're supposed to be at least touring next year. Won't see them at this one, however. The last time they went down pretty poorly with the Reading crowd and it wasn't even full of dabbing Gen-Z aspiring YouTube celebrities back then.

    Were you actually there?

    My recollection was that there was an issue with the lighting rig and he got pissed. 

    They then proceeded to play anything but 'hits'. So that's why nobody really got into it. Which is actually pretty funny. 

    The performance before then with the lights was absolutely amazing!.

    Speaking of the cost of day ticket to band, just saw Bloc Party have added a Birmingham date, it's £33.82. Same day at Victorious is £35. They'll be playing pretty much the same set. So in reality if you were a fan of Bloc Party its £1.18 extra to see all the undercard at Victorious. 

    Last year it was cheaper to get a Victorious day ticket at any price structure (the very last price, say on day of the fest even) than Paul Weller and Prodigy's own tour dates. 

    It's a festival thats an incredible value for money and the thing is about festivals, go see someone you wouldn't go pay for at their own gig, try someone new, try a different genre of music, it's what fests are all about. 

    Anyway, as mentioned above its a damn shame Keith has taken his own life, seen them 12 times, I wrote on twitter about it yesterday I'm devastated it came to that for him, he alongside Maxim and Liam have played a massive part of the soundtrack of my life, Liam seemed like he had no idea which makes it even more sad, even 24 hours on now it doesn't seem real to me. 

    Isn’t this some weird logic, 

    Every festival in the world could argue the same.

    Thet would make every festival great value. They aren’t though.

    Looks like streets and slaves out then. Don’t understand the hate for the street. Saw them last night and amazing energy and fun.  Would have been a good addition to Victorious. 

    I agree, along with everybody else on his current tour.

    The guys first album was groundbreaking. More so than any of the other suggestions.

    He deserves respect, not somebody saying 'good he's not playing'.
