2012 Lineup

[Dan R]

Then they're fools.

[Vieuphoria]

Stage is too big. Would have been better in the NME.

They got mixed reviews at Glasto when I saw them too... but I thought they were good.

[dontasklb]

Both Reading and Glasto looked good on TV to me. But I'm a converted. Would've been much happier with them headlining NME clashing with MCR. Bloody Beady Eye...

The sound was off at Leeds though. Really ruined it.

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

At the moment?

[Vieuphoria]

The guy on the right is very suave.

I'd take the National with shit sound quality over Vaccines any day. That's not to say I don't like them, I've seen them three times and thought they were pretty immense at leeds last year but I'd take the National at any time, shit sound or not, over most bands (bar obvious exceptions of bands like Talking Heads). Saw them at Leeds last year sound quality was far from great like but sang along to every word of their set watching in admiration of matt berninger and company what pissed me off more than anything was the crowd being horrendous and friends afterwards saying "they were boring" and "they just aren't a festival band" to which I have had many an argument (arguments which I personally believe I have won but would anyway as, as far as I'm concerned they were idiotic to say such things in the first place). Overall I believe The National reign supreme over the vast majority of shit music which seems to have been coming out the past few years.

In saying that I'm not suggesting the National have just came around since say High Violet (for one at leeds they played available from Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers to which I knew every word) but just saying that music seems to have been suffering of late.

Almost fell asleep during The National so can't really say I agree haha

[pink_triangle]

Quality! I wonder where they would fit in. I absolutely love them but the latest album didn't do too well and they don't have the popularity they did a few years ago.

[Gucci Piggy]

I seem to remember the Olympic show in Leeds featuring Friendly Fires, Tribes and Little Comets being brought up on here before (we'll I think it was here). Did anyone else here apply for tickets? Me and my friends have won 20 so far, haha!

[thetime]

Big demand then.

[Gucci Piggy]

How do you find out if you won, I applied for Cardiff ones

[Mouseboy11]

Looks like i'm out of luck then

[MAD HARRY 27]

Tribes are playing Cleethorpes and we've all applied for that, haven't heard of anyone getting emails back yet though

[Mouseboy11]

Any chance of (ME) being announced? they were quite good when I saw them live.

We applied for 8 tickets and got 8. Must not have been a massive demand unless it was just good luck.

Its at the old leeds fest site isn't it?

[Mouseboy11]

Saw them supporting Death From Above 1979 last year and I thought they were brilliant, it was a sound I'd never heard before

[The Mean Bean]

Jack Daniels are streaming the Cribs' gig live on their website now, but the bugger keeps cutting out.

[MEGABOWL]
