Panic is a decent headliner tbh, they're a bigger name IMO than All American Rejects who headlined 2014. 

This year was the 10th anniversary. Dunno why they're trying to say its 10th anniversary next year, its the 11th. Its a standard year, they're a good fit. Its always worth the money when you see the full line up anyway.

No they're decent. Just compared to how big last year was, the BMTH thing and with them pushing the 10th anniversary it is just seems a little bit of a disappointment.

You've only got yourself to blame for setting yourself up for disappointment. It was pretty apparent to most people that last year was a one off in terms of size - they've mentioned the 10th anniversary thing this year to sell a few t-shirts and that but last year was the big one. 

I don't recall seeing any rumours of BMTH anywhere - that was just wishful thinking. Id say it was pretty obvious to most people that it wouldn't be BMTH headlining - if you were naive to think it would happen then that's your own fault. They've gone back to the normal size headliner they usually operate at as was to be expected. 

I can't wait to see people bitchinng and moaning about the price for this year when the lineup isn't as good as last year - despite the fact they gave everyone a mental lineup last year for the price it was.

Happy about NFG, not a Panic! fan and not really heard of the rest.  But saying that spent the whole of this year's at the 3rd stage watching the early 2000's ska punk acts and still got incredible value for money - think there were 3 or 4 headliners I could have seen too.  Plus, Hatfield is just down the road so overall a fab festival.

    • I think some folks are underestimating how many millennials, now into heavier music, were genuinely also into things like techno and happy hardcore in the 90s and early 00s. Scooter may be about is commercialized as it gets when it comes to happy hardcore and techno, but for many, they won't be just a 'silly act' they will be a genuine nostalgia act. 
    • Can anyone share please as can’t access the app 
    • Someone said something along the lines of "the lows were really low but they highs were really high" and I think that sentence sums up my ps experience this year. Thursday was a downer (even though I got to see men I trust, geese, oklou and fcukers), but the weather, the missed shows and the uncertainty (those comms...) made it a bad day. Friday and Saturday on the other hand where rly good, a bunch of amazing shows each day (The Cure one was quite something), that surprise on Saturday...   Will be back next year, hope they get another impressive lineup as this year (quality and quantity wise) and that tickets and  primarily hotels don't get much more expensive.
    • Rosalia Radiohead NIN MGMT Bjork David Byrne   Also Vince Staples' new album is cool. I could see him returning.
    • If we are guessing then I think it's   Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls   Weezer   The All-American Rejects
