Yeah I would agree. A nice early afternoon slot on the NME would go down nicely. It isn't relevant to R&L, but speaking of secret sets, I'm expecting an ADTR appearance at Download with them playing the K! Awards on the Thursday immediately before Download.

VCK Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Anything involving Chuck D and Tom Morello gets my vote. Looking forward to hearing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhm Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Just checked a few of my favourite bands off the Green Man festival line up. King Gizzard, Suuns, Connan Mockasin, Battles and Dungen are all free for Leeds/Reading and are in the UK. Possibilities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did not say for a fact they did and it is not substantiated but there you go. Was just about to post this in the 2017 thread. Devastating if true - wonder why they may have pulled out if info is accurate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally very little crossover. 6 hours ago, hamishrankin said: My point was that the website would suggest a rage reunion which as FloorFiller said, would be misleading, therefore for myself it would be disappointing. I shall remember to spell out every point I make so that's it's crystal clear for you Yellow_Fellow The website www.prophetsofrage.com was misleading because - instead of a Rage Against the Machine reunion - it was for the band Prophets of Rage?

Naeb Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Does R/L do some kind of beer/cider crates pick-up service like Titp? Can't see anything on the website so i'm guessing it's likely a no, but wanted some confirmation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow_Fellow Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Eagles of Death Metal removed from Rock En Seine lineup because Jesse Hughes is a bellend, wonder if R&L will follow suit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The remarks were directed at the French people and government. If they were gonna do that based on unrelated views then they may as well never have booked them as he's never been quiet about his iffy opinions on guns, religion, politics, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite clear that if something like that happened, that a right wing, Christian fundamentalist gun nut would react this way if given a platform. Best to just dismiss it with everything else he says. Also, when Tyler was barred from the country you had ideas on free speech that wouldn't really befit removing Eagles from the bill based on what yer man says.

No because, again, there's perceived language and then there's what Hughes said. I would've been happy if Banks got dropped too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastRecedes Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 R&L won't cancel EODM. However stupid, Jesse basically expressed a Republican view that is very common in America. I'm sure R&L will have booked acts over the years with similar views - it's just such a heated time at the moment that these views come into the public eye more often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you know I'm not dismissing your point by any means, I'm just unsure personally where his comments fall between free speech and hate speech, I suppose.

I'd say he's crossed the line quite massively here (could you guess? :p), but I think the main point I'm trying to make is that while R&L do host him, it's probably not as welcoming a place for Muslim acts and fans, which is kinda shitty.

rawaudioinput Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 My dad said he saw the R&L line-up in a magazine the other day and couldn't believe how shite it was; said 'why don't they get anyone decent like Paul Simon' #rawstories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
