    What the hell has happened to this festival? And who are all these people on the line up? I genuinely know 6 bands on the whole line up. I’m 32, when I went when I was younger the festival used to sell out instantly now it’s changed to be a pop/whatever it is now it seems to struggle. Is it a case of trying to please too many people? 
     

    I’m still going to go on the Sunday, to see Rage will be amazing. But other than them and creeper I’m at a loss on who to see.

    I'm in the same boat. Went to Leeds every year from 04-12. I think it's simply that we have got older and the target demographic don't like what we liked 15 years ago. Which is why you see people kicking off about Rage headlining. It's a shame but that's what happens through every generation it seems. I'm 34 and I have no idea about what teenagers early twenties are into now. 

    There are lots of good foreign festivals that still cater to an older audience tho. Done Nos Alive in Lisbon three times in last 4 years one of best festivals I've been to.

    Anyone been on their own before and what was your experience like?

    got fed up of my mates not liking fests so booked a ticket to Reading despite being an anxious person myself.

    Just do it mate. I did Leeds every year from 04-12 each year the group got gradually smaller until the final year i went on my own. 

    As you get older there aren't always gonna be friends available to go to the stuff you want so doing something like this will really help you in the future to feel comfortable going to stuff you want to see. Since then I've done a solo trip yo Dallas to watch wrestlemania flew to Amsterdam straight after to see weezer then on to Barcelona for at the drive in. I did all that on my own and had a blast. You'll be surprised how easy it is to get talking to people after a drink, everyone is there for same reason so you have that in common.

    Still have my fingers crossed for the likes of Denzel Curry, Fontains DC, IDLES, Black MIDI .etc

     

    Idles and Rage on same day would be enough to get me to return for first time since 2015. Saw Idles in Lisbon last summer only band to ever bring tears to my eyes from their performance.

    Not sure why people are getting annoyed about this announcement? It was R1 and main stage, so of course it’s going to be the popular, potentially less inspiring 

    Once upon a time those stages were packed with inspiring bands year after year... before the dark times... before I got old 😭

    Hard Disagree. 

     

    Last years undercard & headliners were the best in years. ADTR/Frank Carter/Ymas/Billie...it goes on

    Last years lineup is one of the worst lineups I've seen in the 16 years I've been going to festivals. 

  14. Blue Dot Festival

    in other UK festivals

    Posted · Edited by moz4pm

    Me and a couple of friends are doing Blue dot for first time this year. Haven't gone to a camping festival in UK since Beacons in 2014. Mostly done one dayers or overseas festivals but we miss those 9am ciders on the campsite so time to get back in the saddle 😂

  16. WWE

    Another great episode of Dynamite, they're really putting on the kind of shows that made me love wrestling in the the late nineties. Watched WWE weekly since 2012 but think I've only watched Raw 2 maybe 3 times in the past two months.

    Had never heard of them but just taken a listen and like what I've heard. They're playing near me next week. I assume from your tour that they are good live|?

    Yeah absolutely, ace live, Stephen Ansell really pounds on those drums and they've got great chemistry together on stage.

    Here's a few songs from each album to get you going. Once you hear how many stone cold hits they have you'll be surprised they aren't bigger than they are.
