I assume none of you have ever met the kind of guy that 'trolls'? I used to live with one till we kicked him out for not paying his rent. He used to talk about trolling people online and how funny it was when they got angry, he loved it. After we kicked him out his twitter account was just constant insults about us and brags about how well he's doing. A couple of my flatmates responded occasionally and it just got more constant, we're talking a few tweets most days for about 9 months. We've not responded for months now and he finally seems to have stopped. My theory of why they do it is that they struggle to form social bonds in real life, so try to pretend they're doing it on purpose. In their heads it's the other people that are then the outcast rather than themselves. A "well I didn't want to go anyway" response to not being invited to a party.

Anyway, the moral is just stop replying and he'll go away. Right now he'll be loving people getting angry and you'll be surprised at his persistence.

(I'm aware that he'll like getting such a big response from me too)

I've seen Chic about 3 times now, the first time was great fun, then the subsequent occasions it was the same thing, the band are so incredible slick and well rehearsed that once you've seen them you really don't have to again. The shows all had the same between song chat, pretty much the same setlist in the same order too, not arsed with seeing them again now that's for sure.

What's best time to arrive on Wednesday? Is there a thread for this? Not that this thread seems to talk about headliners much anymore :s

Speak to 6 people and you'll get 6 different answers. We got there at 2 last year and still found a spot not far from John Peel stage... Depends if you fancy having a late night/early start and queuing with all the freaks.

Was there much of a queue at that time for the gates?

With the lack of information, I can't help but wonder if the organizers are trying to get away from the initial lineup first, with full lineup later format and combine everything into one huge announcement that happens closer to the festival.

    • I too am always a bit blurred on what/who constitutes a legend slot but would Sting fit that bill?  Those there said his IoW slot was v good and he has enough of a songbook imo for a Sun afternoon if he uses the Police's 1st 2 albums for a fair chunk of it      
    • Thing is, I'd have said that as well.   But then she inexplicably ended up on the Wilderness lineup and that changes everything. I reckon if that goes well, which it will, then she's very much in the picture.
    • This has probably been discussed a hundred times already on efests but what constitutes a legend? I know some of it is my age but I don't see eurithmics or Duran Duran as legend status. Neil young or nils lofgren then yes and neither of them have overly troubled the charts. Duran Duran and indeed the eurithmics I would put in the 80s category and whilst it would be ok (human league at isle of wight we're fabulous) they just arent in my mind legend status.  Zombies played same festival- i would take that. 
    • friendly tonight delayed , pitch draining pretty quick to be fair .... not sure it bodes well for other games with potential fixture backlog 
    • Never happen, but an Annie Lennox solo or Eurythmics reunion would make me very happy.
