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

    • Personally if it was me now, I would be grabbing a green camping ticket with the knowledge closer when I've refreshed that I can still choose general if I want to....you can't do the opposite!    I would say if you are happy to watch your headliners and big bands further back to be able to see who you actually plan to later then yes it is fine. Its a much difference experience to any other festival especially food wise and camping surrounds.    Once you're in the arena as well you're not going back unless you've got a gap. If I go again I'll be going with the option of not trying to push the front and enjoying further back as you actually put too much pressure on it than the time take away can forget to enjoy other acts.
    • No complaints about the sound. We were like 2nd set of steps facing stage right in like the middle row.
    • On the whole then,yay or nay...I've had a look on festivals united and there's people who seem converted by Rock Im Park, I can imagine it might be different if it was a washout as RaR is tarmac.   The hotel side would be more to convince the non campers if it's an option. On my first visit to rock am ring we were shuttled into the area where you could stick the car next to the tent which was fantastic as it meant zero lugging of camping gear.
    • An interesting thing this. Having seem them several times (some of their gigs veer into back catalogue niche territoty), I partly agree they arent Pyramid material (theough modern defeinition of 'bangers' although I could see them headlinging the Other stage) I can't think of another festival in the world that they couldn't headline - Reading, IoW, BST, Rock Wercheter, Roskilde, etc etc.
