Spent the last half hour trying to work out who to see and who will clash. Im guessing the friday will be okay then saturday and sunday will be a clusterfuck of half sets and sprints around the park.

Right....

I'm gonna make a prediction!

There will be no Emperor Camping next year....they'll be a price increase in excess of £20 and it'll all be dressed up as "bringing it into line with other festivals of its size"

Just my thoughts

I assume by getting everyone to come off at J39 (as opposed to J40 for northerners) they ensure that they dont have a line of traffic held up as cars try to turn right into Emperors drive from the A6 heading south.

Like the idea of a massage tent - note to self not to ask for a happy ending!

I had a vision during the Wickerman burning last night.

Wickerman is a festival that is clearly comfortable with its size whereas KC want to take over the world!

Once promoters get involved the main driver is money!

My post wasn't intended to be negative....it may never happen and even if it does it may even make it a better festival.

If KC is to continue to grow at the rate the new regime want it to, there will need to be fast return moneywise.

They have said that they are looking to increase the size....do you really think there will be any room for Emperor in the process? Is the hassel that the organisers have faced over the last few weeks really worth it? I'm not so sure!

    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
    • Citizenship via investment programs basically work by saying if you invest this much in our economy (say buy a property worth x) then we will either grant you citizenship or residency with a route to it. The EU has rules on how low countries can set the bar. Montenegro was one of the easier ones to get and they've had to tighten it up.
