I forget who's legitimately 'in the loop' around here. Is this comment worth paying any attention to?

(Please say yes).

Ha, cabin fever is at an all time high here.

I am not remotely in the loop... hence the might. I was just thinking as we cross more and more people off the list, the more and more likely we get scream along to all to well in the Pyramid field.

Quite.

Regardless of whether it was actually the case, if they could make it look like the only tickets that have been returned were coach tickets, that'd be a hell of a middle-finger-salute to those who predicted that Kanye's booking wokld bring about the festival's demise, given the perception that there aren't many coach tickets...

Maybe, just maybe it has nothing in the slightest to do with Kanye? fucks sake.

Martin probably already has

:lol: Out of plus 1s :(

20th at the earliest now I bet

I was thinking Wednesday 29th until this - not immediately after the resale, which could piss people off, but in before the election hype which will be ridiculous from the evening of Thursday 30th onwards. All bets are off now IMO. Edited by Zac Quinn

I heard it's going to be Sonia.

(I guess the youngsters might have to google that one, tho they'll wish they hadn't :P).

I literally bumped into her at Cheshire Oaks Sainsburys. I called my wife to say, 'you'll never guess who I just bumped into....Sonia!'.

'Sonia from Eastenders??' my wife replied.

'Yes Mrs Taff, Sonia from Eastenders is regularly doing a 200 mile trip to the Cheshire Oaks Sainsburys as she particularly likes the deli counter'.

True story.....

Didn't someone say earlier that Emily had tweeted and said the lineup will be out before the resale? or did I imagine that? Or was it bollocks? Can't be arsed to do the whole twitter thing

There was a tweet I saw, but upon closer inspection I think it was either subsequently deleted or someone doctored a tweet and retweeted it to appear as though there was a response

    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
    • We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.
    • The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
