Ale. Cider is not a very nice drink as far as I'm concerned!!

Well I expected people to ask "Who do you play for?" but didnt expect this! It's fine, its actually quite enjoyable to read through the guesses and guesswork...not sure why!

It will be interesting to see if any of your guesses come true wont it? :D

Get? You can't mean cash, surely?

If you're lucky, you'll get a wristband.

Edit - and I'd completely misread, sorry... Best to contact them direct, most of the stages have some form of contact details online. The excellent Glasto Earth is about as comprehensive a list as you'll find and has links to many of the stage/cafe websites.

i am the guitarist and singer. Cheers for looking. anyway if it is mark from feeder i was talking to his niece the other day because i go to college with her and she said that feeder arn't doing any festivals this year and mark's other band arn't until next year. saying that though i did mention this site to her so if sungbala was informed of my asking about feeeder and heard about the site maybe thats why he decided to join up and tease us all. i duno.

I've tried to refrain from confirming/denying anything (hence the many "I may or may not be's") to try and keep my identity as quiet as possible, but before I get accused of teasing people uneccesarily I'll say that I'm not Mark Richardson.

Sungubala is a mountain camp in South Africa, in the Drakensburg mountains. I've been there several times and it really is one of the greatest places on earth as far as I'm concerned. As for the whole bike ride thing, I had no idea Mark had done this, I'll have to ask him whether visited this camp or not, does anyone know the route he took?

I'm going to take a crack at narrowing this down further - one of the posts says that the band playing this years Latitude but not headlining. I reckon that easily rules out Arctic Monkeys, Libertines, Kasabian as they'd all be clear cut headliners at Latitude. We've had a flat denial on Feeder, so the list can be cut down to 8:

Courteeners*

Duels

Last Shadow Puppets

Maximo Park

The Enemy

The Subways

The Sunshine Underground

* already on the rumours list

You reckon?

I'd say Madness are a far, far bigger name than Blondie, and would headline any festival they played outside of the majors. They certainly headlined Guilfest a couple years back and that was considered to be a pretty decent catch. Latitude is about the same level as that..

"Sungubala is a mountain camp in South Africa, in the Drakensburg mountains. I've been there several times and it really is one of the greatest places on earth as far as I'm concerned."

I'm too lazy to do research into actual drummers ages but at a guess...

Would any of the highlighted band's drummers be old enough to have been to South Africa "several times" - especially somewhere that sounds fairly obscure - I could almost believe having gone to one of the major cities several times, so that suggests to me that he must be older than the drummers in those bands would be.

Also, some of the other bands listed may have young drummers, but I can't be bothered to do the research. :lol:

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
    • Yup and they aren't cheap   Glastonbury is different though, it's a place that will pack out for rarities they don't usually see. Download strictly speaking shouldn't be the strangest place for Avril to pop up of she had been a touring artist of longer times over the years.   Avril and GC would get the same billing for me and GC are selling arenas out quicker than Avril sold Ally Pally. Bearing in mind she'd pnly done soem Brixton dates before.
    • Avril gets above GC on rarity (see Cypress Hill this year). She drew in something like 70,000 at Glastonbury, so much so that they had to close the field off. I’d wager that she would get the biggest crowd of the entire weekend if she was to play DL.
