I thought it was the same weekend too. I always viewed that as a good thing, easier to get a big act into town if they can play two shows (= 2 pay cheques) rather than just one. I think it would help a lot when trying to attract acts from abroad like Stevie etc.

Why do people think arctic monkeys would even be thought of as a sub? Any uk festival they step foot on they headline, whether you disagree with me or not they are still VERY popular with the kids. If they are at glastonbury. They are headlining.

Arctics won't sub at GLASTO , don't mind if stones do HRC on Sunday, at least we get to see them when they are fresh not knackered. This HRC / GLASTO rumour is not a new rumour, I'm sure the press have picked up on it.

So it's more likely

Arctics

Stones

Mumford

Yep you've nailed it.

I love radiohead, and they are proper private school poshos.

The studies that have been undertaken are incredibly simple: compare the music charts from 2010 to that of 1960/70/80/90.

The results show, undeniably and unequivocally, that privately educated acts/people from prestigious academies now dominate the charts.

The reason for this is for 2 reasons:

1. The music industry is dominated by a snobbish culture

2. due to all the cuts, working class kids have little or no access to musical instruments, places to practice etc compared to private school kids

    • thanks XXialac! i guess for us the most important aspect will be a festival that starts very late in the day, specially in these southern countries were it can be really hot! The combination of visiting a new city, having good lunches and enjoying a festival is a absolute must for us. Also, we like headliners but the undercard is just as important; truly enjoyed Men I trust, NewDad, Big Thief this year so from that angle it is not really a big thing if a festival is somewhat smaller.    Apparently my bad, i had 5 in my system but 0.5 (10%) increase is still huge. I am not sure how teenagers can afford these prices............
    • That second part was how I felt about Rock IM Park this year trying first. I found that when it gets to like the 3rd act on the main stage down, you've gotta make a choice to miss anything leading up might not enjoy and it's sometimes while closer for not a great view as everyone in turn has to make the call too. Being short doesn't help as I'd just be able be further bacm but still see.
    • I wasn’t slagging Scooter off, they are undeniably silly. As I said, they are the definition of a meme booking for Download. People requested them for years because it was silly. 
    • Wolf Alice - Newcastle on Blue Light Tickets
    • Having done all three, Porto is lovely, very chilled but nowhere near as exciting as Barcelona (nor as many options). Bilbao BBK has charm but again not a patch on Barcelona really.   ps and the beer was 5.50, not 5, last year 😉
