Disagreeing that NME is a reliable music source of music news, or, the fact that they have confirmed headliners and stated one of them to be the final one of a four day festival?

I wouldn't go so far to say they're reliable, they just sit around writing biased reviews, bigging up bands like peace and constantly writing '50 geeky facts about...' articles that noone cares about

Pretty sure it's your repetitive #LADish cronies that keep saying "come to beni n fite us we r well 'ard init" :beach:

They're not my cronies. Muzz and I have our blues, same as anyone, difference is we can move on from it and talk civil about the festival once we've duked it out.

That makes that 'ard #LAD more of a grown up then you.

what are any of those sites... Even Rolling Stone does that.

At least they actively get involved with the music community sponsoring events and what not.

I personally don't read the tabloid stuff like that, If you want a reliable story go to the official source. To me they are no more official than this forum. Which brings us full circle.

again im probably wrong as per usual on here but anyone think that maybe theyve only released the second stage so far for the thursday which tinie could be headlining, just a thought as they have hardly any names on that day compared to the others

Naa i'd say C&S will be on the main stage. I wouldn't be surprised if TT did end up on the second stage. I'm pretty sure that is where we imagined him being all along. Goulding would be a better Sub than TT. She even has higher billing on the video they posted today then TT.

Probably not, Tinie, Goulding and C and S are big names, they're subs really, too big to headline the other stage I'd say.

Didn't Dizzee Rascal headline the second stage a couple of years ago? I wouldn't have thought Tinie would have even been close (in popularity) to Dizzee then..

The fact that Beni said more acts 'Including Thursday 17' (or the equivalent) does suggest they are going to have a proper headliner that day as opposed to Tinie Tempah.

It just doesn't make any sense how he can be headlining when on previous posters he has been so far down and in the video he is mentioned in a smaller font, later on.

When he sings "drinking out the bottle" whose up for making him drink some bottles of piss by lobbing them at him?

I actually feel for the guy. If he was to headline, it wouldn't be his fault and it would be with the disdain of basically the whole crowd. He would cop all kinds of undeserved shit.

I really can't imagine that TT is headlining beni and I am really really hoping its morrissey, he hasn't announced any european dates yet so maybe Beni have to wait until he's ready to announce.. or as some people have said maybe they're trying to bring another act in which is why then won't tell us if TT and PN are headliners just in case they can't get another act pretty soon

You love doing your little half quotes, this is not the first time you have done this. You quote me as saying "fuck what they say"... That implies something completely different to what I actually said which is "who gives a fuck the efestvals thing (the news article) says", in other words who cares. Fuck what they say and who cares are not the same thing.

I have respect for the people on this forum that can compose an articulate post and get across an opinion or Idea (whether they like what I post or not) like Foolee, Nige and even this secretingredient dude who I'm posting with now. I also have respect for the people on here with genuine excitement and enthusiasm like Ged Kelly and Smileya. I can even dig the lads like Guppy and Muzz who are here for a laugh and don't take it to seriously.

If efestivals came in and posted in here and gave us any news they might have about the festival I would respect them to, but there is no sign of them except when they come to ban Guppy. I'm not going to light a candle at night and thank the internet gods for allowing me to post in their forums.

Idiots like Com Truise who are not even going to the festival that just like to pick fights with people are what is fucking it up.

As childish as it is, I don't mind calling you out on your shit. You make out like some people need to grow up because they are tainting your forum. You add literally nothing to this except an argument every now and then.

You don't want to force anyone out of posting on here... You wouldn't be, I'd go happily. I knew you would not take it though. Regardless I'm happy to bury the hatchet now. I leave you be, you leave me be and we make your beloved forum a better place.

Biggest load of crap I've read on here. Most people 'care' because efests know what they're talking about, that's why most of us are here. (Most) news sites wont just sit there making stuff up, it will be sourced. They know more than you do, unless you are you a journalist? That's why you should care.

Likewise for the most part I have no problem with people posting whatever on here & diverging from the topic when the news dries up. A lot of the time it's actually funny, but there is a line and it gets crossed when people start spouting gibberish or posting offensive crap.

Also I look forward to finding out what I've been 'called out' on.

But yeah, whatever. I've made all my points (multiple) times now.

You all saw it, I tried.

This was a specific article about a topic that efestivals don't seem to have much interest in. Did I say that every article they have ever written should be discarded???

I'm not saying that they didn't have a source either, the obvious one is the poster on Beni's facebook page that everyone is talking about.

When's Mokes and Matt Davids gonna have it out with each other and fight to the death?

Bored of both your bitching and your fucking essays now to each other tbh.

I'm sick of it to..

The fucking Libertines got announced to headline Beni today yet, the most important thing is that I get slammed because I said who cares about an article that mentions there won't be anymore headliners announced.

I could literally post a status saying that Bob Geldof used music to do great things for the world and still cop shit for it.

    • The Great Fete Festival (Sunday Only) Ocean Colour Scene day on Tickets For Good.
    • I was also at Ghost but seated. When they scanned my ticket's and they came up as seated they printed a small ticket with the seat number info.
    • I was standing for Ghost at O2 London last year where they put the phone in a pouch beforehand so I assume they're is a mechanism in place for people in seats. 
    • Most likely not, keeping an eye on Tixel and Twickets might be the best option.
