Honestly this is the only place I have ever encountered people from "the north" being derogatory about themselfs :lol: normally its people not from the area making jokes like that!

Maybe i live in a part where the poeple have no humor or have self respect or somthing :lol:

Yeah when I went to London this year, we'd ask people for directions and they'd just shrug their shoulders and push past you. Worse in Birmingham they'd just pretend they didn't hear you. Liverpool is one of the most polite places I've experienced despite what any of you may think of it, as is Manchester and I imagine it's the same for places like Sheffield etc.

Liverpool is far and away the most polite place I've ever been.

As well as having programmes the people at the info tents will tell you a particular stage time if you ask. Or if you spot someone with a programme just ask, most people are willing to let you have a look.

Also I see Leeds haven't said they're not dishing out loo roll :P

At the info tents they will, but a lot of the staff and volunteers have it kept from them as well.

Still haven't discovered toilet roll in Rotherham so it is not a big loss for me

Also, the North is friendlier. Got on the tube for BST Hyde park and me and my brother were talking and we got weird looks from people as if it was an unspoken rule or something. I've been to Liverpool twice but I've never really been about much but my brother goes to Uni there and he says the people are great

Yeah I've heard good things about Newcastle as well. Suppose its a different kettle of fish when you're at the football though really. Its a shame we have a stigma in Liverpool still after all this time really. Oh well. I suppose everywhere has a stigma attached to it doesn't it

In other news and trying to bring it back to the festival according to the Leeds clashfinder... 17% are going to watch AM & same number for Blink but only 8.4% to QOTSA and even more worrying just 6.5% Paramore... they are less highlighted then Catfish and the Bottlemen and Blood Red Shoes to name but two...

JEW have slipped down to 4th place with 16% (overtaken by Disclosure, AM and Blink) and everyone's favorite Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are in 21st position with 9% going to see them.

Paramore fans know not to trust the clashfinder until the official times are out.

    • It feels really busy this year, loads of big groups of youngsters too. Slightly different vibe to previous years I've been. As with Tramlines, they're very chatty during sets and there's a constant stream of them in and out of the crowd... definitely feeling my age 😂   The Quarry stage I think is a lot smaller than previous years - seems similar size to Squid/Leadmill. Some sets have been difficult to get in.   I think I've reached my limit with mid-tier indie guitar bands. There's been quite a few this weekend where I've gone over to see them then walked away after 20 mins. Surprisingly, enjoyed the Fratellis set the most in this genre. Probably getting on for 20 years since I last saw them. Wasn't expecting them to do Yes Sir, I Can Boogie, which was fab!   Hugely enjoyed the Happy Mondays yesterday, and same but different with Radio Free Alice who I saw again on Friday, following Tramlines last weekend. A big run of pop acts today - Scissor Sisters will be fantastic!
