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

    • Happy with the name, unhappy with what it did to the lineup. Now I have to choose between Florence Road and Beirut 😞 and still no alternative to 21p.
    • Odd and rare for RW indeed! I even remember reading in the past that one of the reasons for certain bands not appearing there, were similar demands being rejected. It’s weird that they play after Gorillaz and even more weird that there won’t be an alternative. All they had to do was push Pixies to later. 
    • Klymaxx (The classic lineup) are rumoured to be back together and planning shows.    100k at this. Pyramid field shut down from the bandstand   
    • Self Esteem on TfG for the new BA venue in London next week   Also McFly at the Piece Hall, and several for Llangollen summer sessions.   I think is starting to show the new unused inventory platform starting to kick in. Could be be seeing a lot more last minute stuff from now on.
    • I wonder if a market might open up for academy bands to start playing one off arena shows with prices in the £40-50 range. The biggest arena artists must be pricing out a fair few punters and smaller sized acts could fill a void giving people an arena experience at a price that doesn't make you actually wince.
