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 got in for £11.25 in the end, which was absolutely ridiculously good value, and made the queues and overselling of the venue much more tolerable! Sniping in on other people’s unwanted tickets on the day of an event might become my new hobby I think 🥳
    • Ann and Nancy Wilson are planning a final world tour for HEART starting next year. They were never at Glastonbury. They should do it. 
    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
