New tent, you say? Care to post some NSFW tent porn? I've been scouring the internet for something cheap and decent for a few months now, but it doesn't seem I'm going to get both, it's either one or the other, or neither in many cases.

Mrs Woffy ordered it as she does not have my capacity for slumming it in a 25 quid Asda job like what I does.

Now...just give me a second whilst i get into BonTory character...ahem...here goes:

Meh meh meh I earn a pretty decent wage meh meh meh so it's ohhhhh soooo rather expensive.

Aaaaaaaaand, back in the room.

It was £170.

I'll get her to send me a link in a minute and i'll post on here.

I like the idea of buying one of the expensive ones, as in I could probably budget for a bit and justify it for the amount of use I'd theoretically get from it, but then the £12 Aldi job stares at me to remind me of my roots. The faithful old bastard has put me and others up for many a festival, always been great, the downsides are that I don't fit in it properly and it stinks. All I need is pretty much the same tent, but a little bit bigger, but they're all in the £200s. I think that pretty much every night I lay my head in the tent, I'm absolutely steaming drunk, it's only a matter of time before I spectacularly fall and write it off, if I'm in the £12 job we'd laugh and write it a beautiful eulogy, if it was a top banana one I'd be distraught.

Have you got round to reminding Mrs Woffy that no matter how posh the tent, she's still sleeping on the floor in what's essentially a canvass bag with your drunken snoring and farting? Spot on with the Bon impression, sometimes I wish he'd come back to entertain us.

At least you might escape the trap that is the conference in one go. Wrexham have been down here for years, and we don't look any closer to escaping than the season we were relegated.

I'm a Luton fan, don't miss that place one bit! Really hope you guys get out soon, every season I'm convinced you'll do it...so many teams in that league who could easily be League 1!

Actually even better

  • Steve Lukather (Toto) – vocals, lead and rhythm guitar
  • Gregg Rolie (Santana and Journey) – vocals, organ, keyboards
  • Todd Rundgren (Nazz, Utopia and The New Cars) – vocals, lead and rhythm guitar, bass guitar on "You Are Mine", percussion on "Bang the Drum All Day", harmonica, keyboard on "Love is the Answer"
  • Richard Page (Mr. Mister) – vocals, bass guitar, acoustic guitar on "You Are Mine"
  • Warren Ham (Bloodrock and AD) – vocals, saxophone, percussion, keyboards
  • Gregg Bissonette (David Lee Roth)– drums, percussion, backing vocals

Had to upvote this to balance some miserable sod.

Went to see Todd Rundgren a few years ago, he's an oddball and no mistaking. Don't expect the hits, or at least a noticeable version of the hits if he ever plays.

Steely Dan on the other hand would be great, though very unlikely.

Infact, thanks to that Donald Fagen post, I'm gonna put Aja on now.

See I'm gagging for some Jason Lytle, me.

But he gets no mention anywhere round these parts.

Whats his solo stuff like? Sophtware Slump is a favourite of mine. He's Simple, He's Dumb, He's the Pilot is a fucking beaut of a tune.

*Switches Aja off, puts on Grandaddy*

Haha...yes to most of that! :)

Here you go.

Re: Conor Oberst

Yes. He was a complete prick when he headlined JP and called John Peel an old coke head, not in a jokey manner, possibly the first year that stage was named in his honour. If he IS asked to play, I'll be demanding answers...

If Conor Oberst isn' booked in some form I am going to be demanding answers

Hopefully with Desaparecidos...seen as though he's working with them again..I'd be all over it.

    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
