The 2004 line-up

[Asdaprice]

I imagine a lot of 16 year old girls will be buzzing over Macklemore.

Just wonder - not because I believe it would happen or want to make people believe it will - but has there ever been a case where they released the lineup poster and then added a major act later on in a prominent position to taper flagging sales?

[Babyquack]

Yep same, genuinely have not seen a single positive reaction to Macklemore being announced, or Jake Bugg subbing

Oh and faith no more after Jamie t appeared to be headlining on the initial poster

[Tobieski]

Obviously haven't spoken to Adam then... He's lapping it up as it's his first year haha

[Yellow_Fellow]

RATM were but that was more that they wanted to play rather than a reaction to poor sales

Christ really? Haha, is he still of the belief that music didn't happen before MCR and Pendulum?

He's still of the belief that RHCP are the best band in the world ever ever ever. Delusional! But seriously, he thinks the subs are good (even Bugg, though he does admit he's a Kanye )

The main difference for me though is that the weekend ticket's then cost just over £100. When the cost of a ticket is so high now, it's tough to see the value for money when there's lot's of acts that could easily be playing much lower down. Also 04 had quite a few well-established acts throguhout the bill, something this year seems to be lacking.

I go to a college full of 17/18 year olds and everyone I spoke to said Macklemore subbing is fucking retarded. And these people aren't huge music fans like us, just typical festival goers who like typical R&L music.

They have a terrible music tastes though as when I bought Lullabies To Paralyse today and showed it to my mate and her eyes rolled. But to be fair they were happy with QOTSA but that was mainly because I wanted them so much so I guess I have nice friends at least

I did a diploma in wood work.

Faith No More were always going to play though weren't they? I thought FR weren't allowed to announce them until they'd headlined Download?
