The only decent acts on that list are Biffy Clyro and Iron Maiden, the latter being a bit past it and the former nothing particularly special any more. As for the others, it's not just they have no place at the Brits, they have no place at any awards show that isn't exclusively for metal

From this performance Mumford and Sons are nowhere near headliner standard.

Marcus looks like he is absolutely baking.

Get Metallica instead.

Well done Sandé though on album of the year

Something I posted on Facebook:

Do I even need to post just how AWFUL the Brit Awards have been!!!!!

Muse are the only rock band in performance and we are giving Dave Grohl the wrong impressions of Britain. My favourite acts are from the international awards. This needs a change.

Biffy Clyro

Iron Maiden

Enter Shikari

Asking Alexandria

While She Sleeps

Bullet For My Valentine

The list is long and the brit awards can't see it.

Just a thought here, if all pans out, and it's say kanye on the Sunday, pulp sub?

If its strokes, could/would pulp sub? May tick the locals boxes as well as if its kanye gets the yoof ticked box aswell, this is more selfish hope on my part pulp play, as some of you know pulp are a very important band to me

When Iron Maiden won the Brit for best live act,an award voted for by Radio 2 listeners, you could just see the look of bemusement on the crowds faces,especially Coldplay. I think they got the same amount of votes as all the other acts put together. They hated it so much that they kept blocking all youtube videos of their acceptance speech.

brilliant moment

    • Muse new album out soon , European tour announcement for Nov and Dec, no Spanish date and north American tour starts in July and in North America for all of July and August. So primavera and Glastonbury 
    • Well he is on a rape charge, don't see that one as controversial.    Although Hakimi is in Morocco squad.   
    • Electric Callboy just said they'll be touring here next year. I'm not sure there's a poster for it though. I'll look when I'm near some next.      He said we'll see you at Download at a gig before any of the band. Presumably he was trolling. They're in Austria at the moment and Germany tomorrow with a week's break and more shows in Germany. Whilst not impossible to come back here and then go over there again, it seems unlikely. 
    • Thomas Partey, knocked back by Canadian immigration now.
    • I'm sure someone can update you on the clashfinder, and it will be pretty accurate by the time the festival comes around. It's a large flat-ish arena with main stage in the open air, no best side I'd say. Leadmill (3rd stage medium tent) is at the back of the main arena, T'Other (2nd stage big tent) 5 min walk round the corner. At full capacity walking around can take a bit more time though. I noticed that The Enemy are scheduled to not fully overlap with Wolf Alice, so you could catch part of their set too.   You can walk around anywhere with a beer, with most bars the usual mass market stuff, but one nice craft ale tent, back of the arena near the Leadmill stage. A main meal will set you back £10-15, but cheaper snacks also available. Expect a pint to be £7-8. Possibly a bit more this year as prices everywhere are increasing.   It's fairly easy to get to from the town centre using the tram, although can be busy at peak times / very busy at curfew. If you like a walk, it's approx 40 mins to Kelham Island (lots of indy venues) and probably an hour to the city, or catch an Uber. There will be loads of 'fringe' music events on around the city right through the weekend. Most are free. Have a wonderful trip, enjoy the festival, and your stay in our city!
