I guessed something like that had happened ... and I removed a few threads from here yesterday morning, so you've perhaps not seen the worst of it.

And I believe it's the case that a changed password here will log-out anyone who was logged in here with the old password.

Hmm I thought that'd be the case however I changed my password almost straight away and the person was definitely still logged into it the next day posting. Is there any way you can log all sessions out of my account or anything? I'll try changing my password again and see if that works.

I've just tried it myself, and you were right and me wrong. It definitely worked how I said wih the old version of the forums, but a lot of the technicals with the login changed with the upgrade and I guess this is part of what changed.

Please email me at [email protected] asap from the email addy associated with your account... I don't have a solution at the mo but am looking for one, and I might need to contact you away from the forums after having disabled your account.

Hopefully we'll get it sorted, but please send me the email now.

In kerrangs gig guide in today's issue it lists Brian Fallon in the latest additions who was also posted as a strong rumour here so dunno what happened with that.

Anyone that goes to Leeds.. What are the campsites like for filling up? Only looking for somewhere quiet.. Was going to get an early entry pass but not so sure now. Will there be queues to get in on Thursday morning though? And how about traffic around the site? 

You won't have a problem pitching, especially if you go for the quiet campsites. Generally the further you get in to the campsites the rowdier they get, if you want something quiet I'd recommend green/brown campsite there's always loads of space there. I'd also avoid orange and blue like the plague.

I accidentally put a screenshot of something on Facebook which showed my password for near enough everything so all my accounts everywhere have been hacked into and even though I've now changed the passwords I can't get rid of the people who are logged in. It's a nightmare.

I hope nothing seriously bad happens, but you're a fucking wally.

so which of the five headliners is everyone most excited to see?

Chili's as I've never seen them, was only planning on buying a saturday ticket for them but the confirmation for Biffy on Sunday has sold me a Sunday ticket too as they always put on one hell of a show! First time not going for the whole weekend, the festival had changed massively over the last few years!

By "on facebook" I only meant in a group chat, and it's the password for nothing important (just shite like forums and fantasy football and stuff) so nothing bad will happen. But yeah, annoying.

Either Chillis, who I'm a massive fan of and have never seen live, or Foals, who are my favourite band and are fucking amazing live. Biffy should be good fun too, not their biggest fan but I've seen The 1975 four times before so I'll probably choose Biffy. FOB and Disclosure I'll only see if there's nothing clashing.

Biffy for me. Really happy they are closing the weekend again as their set in 2013 is one of the best I've seen and it was a perfect way to finish the weekend. However, I'm nearly as excited for Foals and I'll be happy seeing any of the headliners dependant on clashes.

Biffy and RHCP as they are two of my all time favourite bands

[JSmurphy]

Still hoping Good Charlotte, Sum 41 and PVRIS will slot in somewhere.

So it's someone you know that is doing it?

If I go I suppose it would be Biffy I'd most like to see but it's like asking which is your favourite colour M&M when M&Ms, whilst not making you violently ill, don't exactly fill you with pleasure either. Maybe Foals just to see if they are as plain as their records are. I mean the hype must be about something after all.

[DirtyChorizo]

I'm excited most for foals most, but chilis are one of my favourite band, and I like 6 or 7 song from biffy and regardless of what you think about them headlining, they put on a killer show in 2013. I'll sit through disclosure to see foals and my friend loves them so that's whatever and fob, I used to like them when I was 14 (that's not a bash I just genuinely did like them when I was younger) but not that keen on them now, still should be good if you're a fan

Chili's for sure! Dad has seen them twice and I was brought up with them around the house so its going to be incredible! Really excited for Biffy and Foals as well though and if Fall Out Boy played all of "From Under The Cork Tree" It would be the only way i'd be excited to see them...

[shoncahill]

Does anybody know if NME Headliners clash with The Main Stage Headliners? I can imagine Two Door Cinema Club will be headlining NME, and if they are it would be a bummer because RHCP will be on and I really want to see both because they're both great but if its on at the same time what could I do? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

They normally will clash, but sometimes they put a dance act on as a closing act meaning the NME headline set should end as the Main set starts. However the chili's may get a 2 hour slot meaning if that happened you'd need to miss 30 mins of either set.

I'm most excited for Foals because I really like their music and they have a great reputation as a live act. RHCP are a close second however and I'll see Biffy on the strength of their reputation and their 2013 set.  

[DirtyChorizo]

i think overall i'd say.

Headliners - strong

subs - weak

regular acts - average/good

Thank you thats vey helpful! Might skip out on the end of TDCC to get to RHCP if they end up slightly clashing at all!

Anybody know what happened to Franz Ferdinand? Haven't seen them anywhere in the past few years... Any chance they'll be playing at any festivals this summer? Probably unlikely but I'd love to see them at some stage! Seen some of their Reading Live Performances they were crazy!

They came back for a bit around 2014 and then did a thing with Sparks last year. So they are still going but have been quieter in recent years it seems.

there probably is a word, you'd just fuck it up, put it in the wrong order and make it so no one can understand you.

[jake.b.overton]

I'd agree the headlines are strong especially for reading with foals on last, rhcp foals and biffy can all put on a great show
