The Pendulum NME day


Guest Fest

Recommended Posts

Contender for worst lineup ever? Jesus! That is just excruciatingly bad. Sorry for the negative post, not really my style. But I just have to know that I'm not the only one to think this. Praying for something good on the Festival Republic stage.

As bad as the pendulum day is, I think the klaxons is even worse. The LCD soundsystem day in my opinion is the best but in any other year would look poor. Also disappointed with the headliners, feel it is really lacking a headliner with a big catalogue as we have seen in recent years such as ash, manics, lostprophets super furries etc who can come and do afestival friednly greatest hit set.

I would have to disagree. Its probably the best day on the poster as far as I'm concerned. Pendulum, Enter Shikari, Crystal Castles, Kids In Glass Houses, Hadouken! & 30H!3 would all be fairly high up my list of bands I'd want to see.

Although I appreciate they aren't the tradtional "reading/leeds" bands of old.

I'm visiting the main stage for three... possibly 4 things.

Gaslight Anthem

Modest Mouse

Libertines

possible Arcade Fire

Other than that... NME stage day all day...

It is awesome for me.

Yeah pretty weak day on the NME, only really Frank Turner I'm paticularly keen on seeing. Though what I've heard from Crystal Castles new album sounds pretty good, so I might try and get into them, especially if they clash with Dizzee Rascal, who I have no interest in seeing.

Pretty poor NME lineup all in all, though last year wasn't great either.

I'm slightly disappointed by the NME this year but in some ways that's not a bad thing as the main stage is so good, especially on Friday and Sunday. On Saturday I'll be watching Pendulum, Serj, Rolo Tomassi and maybe Band of Skulls and 3OH!3.

I was considering starting a topic saying how good the pendulum NME day was. Besides the Get up Kids and Arcade Fire, I probably wont be leaving that stage all day. And its not for a lack of options, I think both the main and Lock-up stage are pretty solid that day too.

I just think for a festival, the bands playing the NME, despite maybe not to everyones taste, are quite diverse, will put on a great show and really get the crowd going.

    • If you didn't see melt banana at Apolo. Go see them at the festival. Insane. 
    • Interesting, and thanks for coming back to give an update! I've seen that the second stage looks bigger than usual too, looks to be a Serious Stages - Stellar Stage from distance photos.    Seems like sizing wise stages have been scaled up somewhat this year.
