ok. Not a huge tiesto fan, but a lot of the protesting I find a little funny.

Visit the T forum and there are a lot of people who are saying that not all people who go to the slam tent are neds. But having a go at tiesto and neds.

So a lot of my mates are tiesto fans and in their defence I feel the need to say not all tiesto fans are neds. And a lot of my neices and nephews and their pals are neds but they don't like tiesto.

and I like trance

I think festivals have been getting along just fine in the last 10 years without booking him since Creamfields has been the only one he's ever been too. Plus Jim King knows exactly what he's doing when it comes to making Rockness financially sound and booking Tiesto, despite his worldwide status, would be a complete disaster for the festival. I for one definetely wouldn't go and I've not missed one yet. Tiesto is overrated to fu*k IMO and I would rather see Vitalic or DJ Shadow to name a few go above him as a headliner. They can DJ the tits off of Tiesto. So piss yourself all you want, not stopping you.

I will piss myself if he does get announced, as half this forum wont be going by the sounds of it.

Sadly i suspect that many festivals would try and book him as he is a crowd puller and a ticket seller. As Jim said himself regarding selling lanyards, they have to do everything with a view to their commercial interests. Selling a specific type of beer, commercial partners, sponsorship etc. so booking a big draw DJ, even if he is viewed by this forum as nothing more than a Ned magnet, will be commercially viable.

Dont believe for one minute Jim would rick running Rockness at a loss... money money money.

i also refuse to accept that its just non-educated-delincuents that like his sets. Im not over fussed, but then im not overly fussed about trance music in general.

Thurso mink!

Roll on the trance and the neds!! Joke!

Ha Ha. Lets just wait and see whats announced before everyone starts having a greet about who is or isnt playing. This forum probably accounts for about 1% of the general demographic at Rockness, so thats why there's a wide range of acts. Hopefully the reccession will hit the neds so they cant afford a trip up the A9 and wont make it anyways!

f**k it, i will be off my coupon at Boys Noize or 2 Many Dj's anyways!

Pretty sure the Thurso Mink started it with the monkey balls attitude.

Coupled with the cleeky attitude that the efest forum gang is right, and everyone else is wrong!

Such class getting "married" in a bouncy castle though.... :P Does that make your opinion greater than anyone elses?

Me being a ned with a tracksuit couldnt be further from the truth... but this is a festival forum, so lets get back to discussing bands and acts.

Obviously cut too close to the one with the mink thing... breed any better?

pretty sure in my earlier post i stated i wasnt too bothered about Tiesto, but i did think he was a big act that is plauseable and would be commercially viable. But seeing as you are Mr and Mrs. Rockness, you make the decisions, you have decided that im wrong and you OPINION outweighs anyone elses. However debating on here makes me monkeyballs, which makes a mockery of a debating forum about an act that isnt even confirmed!

Bouncy Castle > church any day.

Never got the whole religion thing, so wouldn't like to "fake it" just to have a church wedding.

Thats my thought on this ever changing topic anyway.
