Hard Rock Calling 2011

[missmental]

Hi thanks for your reply, I opted just to stay in a travelodge as I am not familiar with London and didn't want to chance getting lost and missing my train. Also, travelling to and from scotland in one day is quite alot! Hope I can manage to use the tube to get to hyde park, look very confusing!! I am staying near kings cross station.

This is so annoying, absolutely love The Kills but I'm only going purely to see The Killers. I assume the second and main stage headliners are on at the same time, its not like a Rock am Ring set up...

Quick question, whats the story with alcohol, are you allowed bring your own in with you or is it taken off you?

[sisco]

Think your allowed to take 1 500ml soft drink per person with you and your allowed.to take food. But no alcohol.

From what I got told before the headliner of the other stage (pepsi max I think it's called) plays the same time as the sub on the main stage. I presume 99 per cent of people buy their tickets due to the main headliner so I guess that's why.

[tori1607]

is there still 1 or 2 acts to be added to the main stage?

[sisco]

Depends what day your on about.

according to an email from James about their festival dates today, they list Kasabian as also playing HRC w/ The Killers

[sisco]

That would be a dream but can't see Kasabian being anywhere other than headlining!

Going Friday! Got email from ticketmaster on 6/06/11 to say tickets have been dispatched, not arrived as yet!

[missmental]

I got my tickets about a month ago, I live in Ireland, and got the email a few days back alright. You might want to get in contact with them.

[the salmon]

I have a ticket going spare for the Friday gig, I am still going, just had 1 person drop out. Give me a message if you are interested

If you enter with a bag that will just about squeeze into one of the lockers, as well as a smaller bag for drink and food n stuff, are the bags likely to get searched?

[Kobus]

The set times are now on the line-up page of the website. There seems to be a band missing on Friday Mainstage between James and Michael Kiwanuka?

I know the opening times but I don't know if I need to queue outside before that to get halfway to the stage??

[missmental]

I went to see KOl at Hyde Park last night. It was fab! and very muddy, everyone had boots on. The loo situation is BAD! after 6pm took around 40 minutes to get a loo. We tried to find a quiet corner to wee in but there were stewards / security evrywhere who stopped us. I've decided to drink before 4pm then nothing after tomorrow for the killers! or wear a nappy! It was raining again in london this morning. Can't see the ground drying out by friday.
