Gilgamesh69 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 By "not particularly strong", do we mean they aren't that popular, or just aren't that good? Because a band like, let's say My Bloody Valentine for example, wouldn't exactly be that big of a booking, but I'd still be incredible excited and would definitely get a ticket.

eFestivals Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 There's an act on there that I once suggested to the bluedot booker after seeing them at a fest where i thought they were great, and said something about them not appearing at many festivals. No huge shakes, but I'm surprised they don't get booked by more festivals more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave85radiohead Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 4 minutes ago, eFestivals said: none. None as in it's none of those or none as in I haven't missed any? Sort of hope it's the former rather than the latter. I know you have to be careful as you can't give any names away so not trying to get anyone in trouble.
