2013 Lineup

[mrtourette]

They've already said that they aren't doing any UK shows.

"blur are coming to DUBLIN first time since '99 and only show in the UK or Ireland. Playing the Irish Museum of Modern Art on Thursday 1st August. Tickets On Sale Thursday 7th March."

That rules them out then.

Its on their facebook.

Why are people slating RHCP for 2007? It looked intense.

I'm really holding out for Avenged Sevenfold getting announced. Likelihood?

"blur are coming to DUBLIN first time since '99 and only show in the UK or Ireland.

this is what I said I'd heard would be the case all the way thru - but which I had trouble believing as true. Looks like it is.

[Andre91]

We can count Blur out then!

[Hart Attack]

Awesome!

Green Day, RATM or Metallica are the three it'll be between imo.

@jump. At least tell me why then? I don't know all the background info about why melvin said he'd never book them again!

Chili Peppers are literally the worst headline set me and many, many others have ever seen at a festival. They had a poor setlist, pissed about with jams the entire time, an attitude of they just didn't want to be there aswell as no effort put in, a completely dead atmosphere after 5mins and so on. It's slated for a reason.

http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/red-hot-chili-peppers/2007/little-johns-farm-reading-england-5bd38f38.html How you can called that setlist bad, I'll never know. Pissing about with jams is cool, and RHCP are a funky band so I wouldn't expect anything less-it just adds to the performance, otherwise their set would sound like it's come straight off the record. When I see a band live, personally, I want it to sound a bit different from the record. Whilst I'd agree that it's shit when bands don't put the effort in; I don't see anything wrong with their 2007 performance- apart from the sound being bloody awful. But that's not their fault and might explain why it sounds bad. One of my mates saw them last year with Dizzee Rascal supporting and said it was amazing, so they've probably worked on their live performance. And it sold out. I think they'd be a great booking.

There is testimony to show they were shite at both sites though, which rarely happens (arctic monkeys cough).

I'm sure last year you could buy tickets for some of the stadium shows the week leading up to it for like £1 (or was it £5)

[the wonderwhy]

Their setlist stats and ends with 'Intro Jam' and 'Final Jam' ffs.

[the wonderwhy]

Is he?? I can't see it

[DL50]

Ahh ok i see it now, apologies

On another note, where do people think he'll play? There was some discussion on another thread

In my opinion he is definitely a sub, too big for third now

There was a debate over whether he would sub Eminem, i think it would work well but a couple of people thought they would split the rap demographic a bit more and have him subbing biffy

[eFestivals]

He's on the Leeds one, but not Reading

someone has just been taken outside, tied to a post against a wall, and peppered with the bullets from an AK47.

While that was happening, someone else corrected the error.
