Bruce Springsteen fans are insane. The queue for Bruce gigs start 2 days before the gig. There's even official queue moniters who hold a register every 4 hours. You can go away from the queue between registering, but you must be back every 4 hours. Missing a single register is allowed but any more than that means losing your place.

Never known fans to queue for so long, let alone hold such a regimented queue system. Most I've seen at other gigs is fans passing a list down the queue to write down names and ensure no one pushes in via vigilante law. :P

But everyone agrees that uncouth shouty shouty white man is a massive massive massive twat and has done nothing of musical note since his bands first album and in most peoples opinions should go live in a hole somewhere.

Yeah I hold my hands up...my comment was harsh there.

I'm still a bit p-eed at going up to see them at the park a few years back and not enjoying it!

Don’t really agree with the anti Mickey D’s thing, its so obvious. Ive seen a lot of modern art too over the last few years, apparently “great” artists like the Chapman Brothers etc, attack McDonalds at the drop of a hat and having anti McDonalds stuff all over their installations. BOOOORRRRRRRRRRING!!. Theyre a f**king fast food company, how bad can they be? They’re hardly Robert Mugabe are they?

Its such a flacid cocked, bog standard left wing approach to things. "Oh, lets have a go at McDonalds, the c**ts" and the same people think that they've done their bit for democracy or whatever because "McDonalds represent everything thats bad about globalisation". zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Yeah? I thought that was a great little set personally. You mean the not-so-secret one on the Friday night in 2008, yes? The band were handing flyers out in the Park during the day. Very friendly chaps.

It was more about them using the record without permission and even more so against his american label for letting it happen...

I thought most people thought on here thought most of Oasis were twats

On the subject of musical note, I mean making the same album over over and over with different lyrics.

As for sales,

According to wiki the following people have done better than oasis:

Britney Spears, Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys and Shakira so really, yes Oasis are better commercially but they are welcomed to be a commercial success.

Also I meant it as a jokey post but it has descended into full blown argument which makes me sad :P

    • I’ve also got a media contact who gets hospitality tickets, he says their allocation of them is slightly reduced this year. The few Off site ultra expensive glamping/hospitality ticket packages mostly sold out a while ago. Some just after the 2025 festival ended. 
    • No one mentioned this here yet, but regular tickets for Sunday, the 30th of August, are again on sale
    • Not seen anything on socials or main website so far on the Bimble Inn line-up.
    • Current top 10 - constantly changing, though  Pulp  Madra Salach  Angine De Poitrine / Brakes (worried they're gonna clash)  Joshua Idehen  Anna von Hausswolff Super Fury Animals  Bab L'Buz  SLAG Model/Actriz  Modern Woman 
    • It does feel like there's a push back against net zero from both left and right, but especially the right. Probably since Trump I guess, but even before Trump you had the tea party and Sarah Palin thing, but over here the right were on board with the issue of climate change and the need to address it, from Thatcher through to Johnson. That has now changed, first it was the populist right, not it is mainstream, with Badenoch making the two prerequisites for standing for the Tories being against net zero, and for leaving the ECHR. You can be an ex neo-nazi as long as you are against net zero. At least many now seem to accept the climate change is happening and it is caused by us, but they now say well it will be a nice mediterranean climate so lets bin net zero anyway and just have fun f**k all that woke green sh*t. But also the left, with various trade union leaders and blue labour types going on about net zero being bad for the economy and the need for reindustrialisation as we head back to the glory days of the 50s when we all worked down pit or something, ignoring the amount of industries and jobs created by net zero. The greens obviously are still firmly behind the net zero thing, but the party is also full of nimbys who are worried about hedgerows and hedgehogs and votes, and even the leadership have realised that there isn't votes in climate doomerism but there definitely is in bashing billionaires and Israel. I guess the main driver of net zero policies in the country is still Miliband which is probably why everyone seems to be f**king terrified of him, the mad freak and his renewables. He is out of the energy department, but his replacement is hardly a petrolhead, and he isn't in the treasury doing terrifying things like spending money, but he is in the foreign office which is maybe a good place for him because climate change is a global issue and its going to take a global effort.
