2013 Headliners

It can be cool to hate a band AND they can be crap. The two aren't mutually exclusive. It's cool to hate Mumfords and they suck.

Like I said, not really a Biffy fan, just thought the album was pretty good - I gave the caveat of it being cool to hate them because every other time Biffy have been mentioned in this thread people have posted about how terrible they are and how they shouldn't be anywhere. I was pre-empting that reaction.

i've no doubt that Kasabian are probably a great live band - i just don't think they have the songs to fill a Glastonbury headline slot. sure they've got their share of hits, but some of the recent ones (Days Are Forgotten, Where Did All The Love Go spring to mind) are boring as hell. i'm sure stuff like LSF and Fire is amazing live, but so much of it is just plodding, drab, middle of the road indie

Kasabian were a terrific band. At Glastonbury in 2007 they blew me away, I loved their energy and slightly edgy style! BUT in the past 3 years I've found em pretty boring. A mediocre performance at Reading was out classed by the Foos the following day. Not a Glasto headliner yet for me.

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
    • I think the level of headliners Bloodstock get is varied    There's been bands who have gone on to play Download in quite a low spot like Meshuggah, Behemoth, Opeth etc.    Then they've had years like 2025 where you can argue that all three headliners are download main stage sub level    Knocked Loose right now i'd argue are 3rd down on main/opus headliner level while EC and FFDP are borderline main stage sub
