I was thinking about HRC this year...

Prince rumour seriously tempted me

I think Bon Jovi confirmed it.

In all seriousness, as I have never seen them live... Chili Peppers would make me the happiest man alive.

Some info i'm sure some of you will find interesting... The day Bon Jovi are performing it has been confirmed there WILL be a golden circle... which is accesable to Bon Jovi Fan club members... already have purchased my ticks through the Fan Club :)

this is the first time for a Gold Circle at HARD ROCK CALLING as far as i'm aware?

I am presuming this is only going to be solely for the Bon Jovi day of the event...

all links would be unaccesable without bein a member of fanclub... but was confirmed by Matt Bongiovi who is the bands tour manager... it was apparently part of the agreement in them playing... All tickets which are for sale from the fanclub ticketsite are Gold Circle tickets... they are the same price as general aswell!

Got my tickets but if Bon Jovi stick a Golden Circle up I will be really annoyed - last year I was about 10ft from Paul McCartney and didn't have to pay anything more than anyone else, Bon Jovi are hardly bigger than that!

Where could they stick the Golden Circle anyway it'd need to take up the majority of the centre where the big screens are. Ah well lets see on the day.

As its 40th anniversary of Hard Rock Cafe I think we might just get some big names this year - that and 2012 Olympics will rule out anything next year

Just a thought with MK Bowl gig for the Foos less than a week before it I'd expect Foo Fighters to play Glasto. Might we see them gracing the Sunday stage for what would be the greatest night in Hard Rock Calling's existence or possibly a Friday night spectacular?

I'm wracking my brains for who would sub under Bon Jovi, problem most of the similar bands are too big to sub. Could possibly see Goo Goo Dolls doing it.

Foos would be excellent Friday night, agreed. Don't think it'll happen though.

Motörhead would be excellent subs for Bon Jovi. Come on HRC, you know it makes sense.

The Black Crowes headlining Sunday night would be sweet.

And get Cinderella on the bill.

The Rolling Stones plan to hit the road in 2011, despite rumours that they had retired from touring altogether. "Everybody's ready to go out there again," guitarist Keith Richards told BBC 6 Music. "Who said it should stop, and who said when?"

Read that ^ on the internews this morning. Sunday night headliners?

What about Rush to headline one of the other nights?

They are doing a European tour in late spring next year and are open to playing a festival or two in Europe.

The Rolling Stones hve played Hyde park before so they could be the other headliner with Prince (if true) or maybe something like Van Halen/The Scorpions?

They have said no other European shows!

AS OF DECEMBER 3RD 2010, THIS IS THE ONLY CURE PERFORMANCE OF ANY DESCRIPTION BOOKED FOR 2011... WE WILL NOT BE PLAYING ANY OTHER EUROPEAN FESTIVALS, AND UNLESS SOMETHING REMARKABLE HAPPENS, WE WILL NOT BE PLAYING ANY OTHER EUROPEAN SHOWS! THIS IS AS CLEAR AND AS DEFINITE AS WE CAN BE... SO IF YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE 120+ MINUTES OF THE CURE NEXT YEAR (AS WELL AS A DAZZLING PANOPLY OF OTHER GREAT ACTS) WE WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU GO TO BESTIVAL! (HOWEVER, IF YOU LIVE IN SOUTH AMERICA, YOU MIGHT CONSIDER WAITING A WHILE BEFORE BOOKING YOUR TICKET... YOU NEVER KNOW... ) ONWARDS! RSX

    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
