2013 Lineup

[Muppetmark]

i am presuming they will release the code needed for them at some point over the weekend?

[Yellow_Fellow]

Awesome. 15k contrary to the 2k War Child gig so ill have a better chance for this.

[Muppetmark]

does anyone know if this is all standing or seated or what?

[Spud001]

From when I've been there before they've had seats on the left and right. Seeing as it is free it probably won't be a full set but you can't argue with free tickets! Got standing for Shepherd's Bush so should manage with this if my luck stays together

The day before my first exam. Fucking brilliant

[Com Truise]

first?!?

[PDAD]

first?!?

[Com Truise]

A2s. Don't start until june.

[PDAD]

Ah you haven't got any resits then, smart arse

[PDAD]

Surely we have more to be announced on the NME as well? Last year there were 11 bands a day and we so far only have 8..

[Com Truise]

Announcements have been one big shambles this year

[PDAD]

I like having a number of announcements. It prolongs the interest.

But yeah, it would be nice to have some sort of idea about when they are actually gonna come.

[lharris92]

first?!?

[PDAD]

my exams started today at uni, yet half of my mates finished their exams before i even started.

anyway.

Milton Jones for the alternative stage anyone?

[Com Truise]

I want Stewart Francis, only bloke who makes me laugh with one-liners

Just back from Dot To Dot Festival in Manchester, brilliant night.

Leeds wise, I saw The 1975, and To Kill a King. The 1975 were great really, attracted probably the largest crowd of the night (possibly due to their early set) and played well, capitulating the crowd, particularly with fan favourites; Chocolate, Sex, and You. However, I found the vocalists sound to be even more annoying as it is on record, which ruined it a little for me. To Kill a King were outstanding all round. They played a half hour set at 11pm in the tiny SoundControl Live Lounge, this was unfortunately due to them having been stuck in traffic on the 9hr trip they were taking to reach Mcr aiming for their 7pm slot. Despite this postponement, they had a set full of energy, and really knew how to work a crowd off probably only 30-40 people. This energy culminated during the rendition of Fictional State, when the frontman walked off the stage and started playing guitar in the middle of the floor, with people dancing around him, great atmosphere!

I will upload videos of 1975 - Chocolate, and TKAK - Fictional State tomorrow so you can see for yourself how good they were

EDIT: Nothing to see here

Fictional State

[sjseabass]

Oh god, the urge to defend Biffy on the V board is almost overwhelming.

I love that the finale of their hurt/heal was between Stereophonics and Travis .

On an unrelated note, I'm incredibly glad The 1975 are as far down the lineup as they are - it'd make me annoyed every time I looked at it if I could see their name staring back at me in large font.

Imagine Dragons on the other hand...

[sjseabass]

I made it my mission to make sure one of them won, distinct lack of musical taste on that forum

Love this guy...every line is genius! Although Jimmy Car is brilliant also.
