Lineup 2014

[justanothername]

I mean I'll only see The Cribs cause I can't get there til late. Although the friend I'm going with will probs see Rolo Tomassi so if I'm there at that time I probs will. Or do they clash with The Cribs?

They don't clash. Nearly two hours between the end of Rolo Tomassi and the start of The Cribs

[Gucci Piggy]

Why do The Cribs have a shorter set than almost every other act playing? And why is there no gap between most of the bands?

[Yellow_Fellow]

good lads, proud of you both

[#FreeComTruise]

See Rolo Tomassi if you're a fucking clown

ftfy

[Yellow_Fellow]

Ban request

[TenInchToenaiIs]

how much of a boner do you have to be to sell a ticket on for more than double face value

smgdh

[Yellow_Fellow]

it's so annoying right???

[tyranicide]

Saw No Devoition tonight. It would be nice to see them added

[rawaudioinput]

I could see them being added as a "special guest" opening NME or something

[TenInchToenaiIs]

it's a goddamn nightmare, my feeling is that the closer to the date the more people will need to sell and settle for face value (or less)

I think there'd still be too much negativity (wrongly) attached to them for a festival crowd right now. Next year possibly, although this year would have been impossible anyway.

I have no idea but I think most acts will have a short set (expect for those with gaps between them) so The Cribs will probably get the same size and I think late night acts get far more. Still looking forward to it though

Did they play any Lostprophets songs. I know they're trying to distance themselves from it but it would be a waste of some decent material.

There seems to be a lot of positivity towards them really, most people think it is good that they're distancing themselves from Lostprophets and starting to make music again. There are still a lot of people that don't know that they formed a new band and most people would only recognise Ian in Lostprophets (both before and after the "incident") and those that don't probably know what No Devotion are about.

This probably made no sense but I know what I'm thinking and I think that they would have been a good booking

Nope, never will

Yeah what Yellow said but I'll add they've actually said they never will - do you not think Lostprophets and everything associated with that band is a little tainted now?

[dentalplan]

I think you'd have to be a little deluded to think there would be nothing but positivity towards them from a festival crowd. There are people that took on board the accusations that they were told of the abuse and never said anything.

I figured that and yes everything by Lostprophets is now tainted. Stupid of me to ask

Never said that.

There was a lot of people who liked the fact that they were still making music despite what had happened and even though there are people who think they knew about Ian did they don't appear to be in the majority (from what I have seen) but there are still people there though never the less. So them coming back would be met up 100% positivity but I'd still think they would have been a good booking and I could see them playing next year easily low on the NME

[tyranicide]

They've said they won't ever do any Lostprophets stuff. It was all No Devoition songs although there was an instrumental song without Geoff Rickly.

[tyranicide]

While I don't think there'd be 100% positivity the only negative comments I've seen have been about the music although I'm sure there are a few who believe they knew about the crimes. Plus as long as they could put up with one or two heckled from the crowd - surely the exposure would be better than not playing?

[KingOfTheBeach]

Yo off topic but does anyone know how long headliners play for at Tramlines? I wanna go for The Cribs but I'll only see them and maybe like one other act so I dunno if it'll be worth it.

If you're there on the Sunday I recommend watching The Spills.

[rawaudioinput]

Tyranicide how full was the venue when you saw No Devotion?

Saw they didn't sell out their Cardiff date which I found surprising

[Gucci Piggy]

Ah I don't think I'm gonna go now anyway after finding out about the awful set lengths.

[Mouseboy11]

Someone please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this sounds like Yeah Yeah Yeahs "Maps"

Yellow couldn't see it at all,

[rawaudioinput]

The vocal line is pretty similar, the beginning sounds like Barriers by Suede though, except Suede is infinitely better:

Shit, that No Devotion song really sucks. I'd rather listen to Lostprophets than that again.
