2013 Lineup

[thetime]

I suppose so, but on the whole The Cure's set wasn't admired this year. Not slating the band I love them, but because a lot of the crowd was much more of a younger audience, I just don't think they understood it or heard many of the songs before, I fear the same would occur with Depeche Mode...

haha, that's rich coming from a guy that said, they imagine they'll be nailed on or glasto if they are still about and don't even try and pretend you wasn't this person.

there's a difference between speculating on what might happen in the future, and talking bullshit about what has happened in the past.

V did not get the Roses because they offered more than R/L - which is what you said was the case.

If you had even the smallest inkling of how things work you'd know that.

[Tobieski]

Everyone who wasn't a tasteless tosser admired their set this year.

for once I have to commend Bl;ack Crow for his acuracy. There's a first time for everything I guess.

Hear's a fun game to play...

Put gazza and black crow in a room, and see which one is overcome first by the bullshit emanating from the other.

On the other hand its a good way for the young ones to be introduced to a legendry band.

[Tobieski]

It was nominated for Best Headline Performance of the year, so that's not true

[thetime]

Good point, but usually they'd opt for the band on the NME tent that everyone arse licks, like they did with The Maccabees this year

Great band but I could barely hear them... always seems Reading has that problem at main on the Friday... I generally try to avoid the stage on Fridays..

what for?

pointing out that sabbath won't headline, pointing out a pattern in Blur's R&L touring plan which makes them likely or for pointing out The Prodigy as a header after you suggested yourself that Prod won't headline.

and yes, i am waiting for a I never suggest no such thing, as usual you're wrong.

but i'll make it clear the roses aren't headlining IOW but they are, i'll also make out others might be headlining R&L, when I know full well it's the cure lol

what for?

Speculation i one thing; I do that, you do that, we both fail sometimes (you much more than me - by about a million times. But that's by the by).

Making made up statements of facts which you have been doing is something else entirely.

It shows just how little you know about the music biz, and that your guesses about everything else are guess from a position of zero knowledge. Just names plucked from the air.

[eFestivals]

i also said ....

a million different and often conflicting things, so you can probably always present an "I said" for anything.

That doesn't alter the fact that you've shown how little you understand even the basics of the music biz. If you actually stopped to think for the smallest moment you'd see that those you like to believe know less than you know an infinite amount more.

[thetime]

honestly a lot of people I went with said they didn't enjoy it

[brettredmayne]

I don't ever remember neil saying these things about blur, he has told us they are not playing any uk dates but he does not believe them

Thats an interesting point you have made. So guys I was talking to was disapointed with there set at a festival I was at(wont mention the fest as tourette get his knickers in a twist) and also reviews ive seen of various festival appearences of the cure felt let down aswel.

Although the main reason was there wasnt much to look at, the cure were just there to belt out the tunes. I think people want more than that which is a shame, they want there lazers and big balloons like muse, kasabian do. This is a shame really its like asking bob dylan to come on stage in stilts and dancing with half naked ladies.

more lasers, big balloons etc etc usually means there trying to hide from there hideous music in my generalising opinion.

The only way they would be a better headliner if they sold more tickets, at the minute who would sell more tickets mumford or biffy?

i don't think it's totally made up, to say a band is getting a better pay deal from one fest by being part of another deal is not making things up.

[thetime]

I am not saying ticket sales I am talking about performance. Biffy have a good number of albums to fall back on. They probably have more singles than mumford have songs!

[the wonderwhy]

Nominated by people that probably know something about music, honestly a lot of people I went with said they didn't enjoy it
