2013 Lineup

[the wonderwhy]

Black chandelier is one of the heaviest biffy songs in a while

[Tobieski]

Alex Trimble said that he hoped to see everyone next year at the end of Two Doors set this year, I know it's very little to go on but with the new album could they rise up the bill at all?

Stingin Belle is heavier surely?

[kev1664]

matt cardle was perhaps the best thing that happened to biffy.

[Luke Routledge]

I have to agree with what everyone is saying. Just because Biffy are growing it doesnt mean they have sold out at all. Also a small part of me still thinks that Kings Of Leon will release another good album and go back on form

[lightning1000]

That golden rule.

Ahhh so you are now finally admitting you are indeed Gazza then? About time!

It's not just as black & white on what event an act plays and how much they are offered that needs taken into consideration by artist, management, agent, promoter and booker.

It's a whole multitude of things including touring commitments, studio time, rehearsal time, time off/family commitments, festival location/stature/demo-graph, other acts either above/below them, fee offered/wanted, agents fee, exclusivity, travel arrangements, tour arrangements, technical specification required, logistics, promoter involvement, advertising, etc etc

Many of the above and more need to be looked at by an act before confirming to play, and often the fee is one of the least important deciding factors.

They had a number 2 & number 3 album before mat cradle.

[Gucci Piggy]

There's no such thing as a jaggy snake

[SOAD]

As far as recent songs go Modern Magic Formula is a pretty damn heavy Biffy song... amazing live also... the double album is going to be incredible considering what they have played live and released so far. I would argue Stingin Belle is the weakest song we have heard from that album so far and it's still awesome.

[Gucci Piggy]

Anyone think the Lock-Up Tent could be gone next year? What with the new stages, they're going to have to fund the extra acts somehow, and a 3-day dance stage and hip-hop/grime stage would sadly be much more in demand from the current demographic. I suppose they could do that and scatter some more lock-up style bands throughout the other stages. Just a thought.

We're talking recent songs here...

[PDAD]

I thought they'd confirmed two extra stages, bringing the total to nine? Rather than replacing existing ones and keeping it at seven?

Yeah, they confirmed in their press release on the forum that the Lock Up would be staying... didn't say how many days though.

[Gucci Piggy]

I know, hence why I quoted the person that said that golden rule. I just assumed We'd started naming random heavy biffy songs haha

Has any one purchased a ticket yet? Either full or deposit?

[kev1664]

Charts dont mean anything though do they?

I was only messing though.

[lightning1000]

How is golden rule not recent? It's from their last album.

[Kompressor]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm hearing this is the lineup, and it's been leaked. I wouldn't assume anything yet like, but it does look quite legit to an extent
