Q magazine!

[Fizzy2734]

Im gonna be honest, i go to this great fest purely through the choice of very little artists that im interested in that are playing and locality, but at the same time I recognise it to be a fantastic festival that offers the cream of dance without spiking the royalty of pretentious, (Tiesto David Guetta)

But I think the fact that Q magazine lingers from the arse of Glastonbury and gives NO attention to Rockness and very little to anyone else, that includes Isle of wight is a poor show on a magazine that is supposed to be the number 1 music magazine.

I always thought rockness had a great following (even though it doesnt seem to ever sell out) and was a festival that just needed that final push into peoples consciousness that would make it a well recognised and artist heavy attracted festival.

This may go against the ethos of not making Rockness a huge festival, I know that MR King has no intentions (at the moment) of making the festival any bigger than it actually is, but recognition where it is due should be paid.

Would just like your opinions also.

Lots of journalists like to forget that Scotland even exists. Half of them probably think that nothing ever happens outside London.

Its always the same for most of these mainstream music mags, Clash magazine has mentioned it a few times. Sure look at the coverage BBC had on their website for RN 2009, two video clips of Orbital which is pathetic. Im gonna dedicate some nice space in ma blog for RockNess. Sure even searching in Soulseek for audios from BBC and whatever at RN hardly brings any results.

Probably cause one of their rivals are a main sponsor.

Q magazine = shite

True everyone from London thinks they have everything they need. I guess Glasto and Reading are close enough that they don't think they need to venture any further past them.

It's a sad fact really as they are missing some of the best and beautiful festival in the world, Rockness definitely being one of them.

If Q Magazine still haven't given RockNess any great praise then I doubt they ever will.

I've never properly read the magazine and will never buy a copy now. I hate bias in magazines or newspapers.

Not every one from london we are driving a return trip of 1200 miles to visit rockness, giving glastonbury a miss this year, but you are right most people take it for granted how many festivals are close to london i cant wait to visit rockness my friends think i am mad drving that far, see you there

Considering the big music magazines barely cover TITP, I don't think Rockness has much chance.

best thing about this months Q, is its headline battle, Muse v U2... Bonos not going now Ha Ha Ha.

Happened before with a mega Michael jackson Issue, he died the day before it came out.

Maybe its cursed
