2013 Lineup

[she bangs the drums]

They're being real dicks with these times, putting them up, changing them, taking them down, now you don't get them until tomorrow.

On the app i

Has it been confirmed they will issue them tomorrow?

[Benj]

I think it increases the likehood of people buying programmes and timetables.

Exactlty

There seems to be about 3-4 different clashfinders doing the rounds with completely different stage times (bar main stage), no one is going to have a clue which is correct.

Im thinking of going with this one

http:///s/rdgfest2013/

as the most likely but who knows??

[Greg123]

Has anyone seen the computers before? got into them recently and unsure whether to see them

[Benj]

kaosmark is working as a steward and if the instruction pack he gets tonight has the stage times in (as it did with Latitude) he's going to e-mail them to me and I'll knock up a clashfinder tomorrow.

The one you link to looks pretty much like the one I'm working on and is a good bet.

I asked Zebrahead if they were playing Reading and Leeds as a secret set btw and they replied ''I wish''

[jump]

The 1st time I saw The Computers I thought they were ok but I have caught them a few times since then and they got a lot better but still far from being a must see.

[Greg123]

The "must see" for the Lock Up stage as far as up and comers go is Palm Reader for me. Highly recommended.

Only thing is that all the clashfinders seem to have FR and Main Stage headliners clashing, Spector have said on their Twitter they won't clash with Biffy. Hope the rest of the times are released soon!

So what the hell is going on with the times, never had this much problems before, its normally all sorted by the monday before the festival.

I wrote all the times down then checked the same clashfiner, the rdgfest one, and the times are completely different to yesterday.

Its a fucking rip off

They dragged on until the Wednesday last year as well. It's a corporate festival who have an interest in selling timetables for profit. V and T don't give out any times in advance at all, R&L could easily go down that route.

[Yellow_Fellow]

Ill post the times as well if anyone needs them, that said press times and steward times won't match given this years streak

[mrtourette]

Well I took the times from a clashfinder on monday last year and they were perfect at the festival.

The problem here is its not even small changes, stylo g was originally down at 15.05 now the clashfinder has them playing at 17.00!

Lanyards are the biggest rip off going, put them down to a few quid and theres isn't a need for this, most people would pay

[GuitarManDan15]

Last year the times were still reasonably easy to predict based on previous years, this year it's mayhem due to the new stages and some stages finishing early so you can't fit them into old templates, so the people creating clashfinders are having a hard time being accurate without official times.

As for the clashfinder times changing, maybe the person who created it is playing around with bands, or maybe Stylo G was down as 15.05 as a guess and now that person found out the correct time. Clashfinders are nothing to do with the festival and their accuracy is at the mercy of the person editing them, so without the official times there's always an element of risk (more so this year for the reasons above).

But yeah you're right about the cost, they are a rip-off. The programmes are shit, just a pathetic band bios containing information that anyone with the internet will already have access to.

[Kabis_5]

does early entry at reading actually open at 6pm or is it usually earlier?

[Yellow_Fellow]

I still have my 2008 book
