I've no knowledge - I'll make that clear - but it's just occurred to me that Jamiroquai are one of the few bands who can keep up the 'space' theme for Blue Dot.

As Boardmasters is around the same size, I think I might have just hit upon something. :)

2 songs ! Cosmic girl and space cowboy! 

electric fields announce in 5 mins maybe that will shed some light !

I hope we get more acts announced for Kendal Calling than have been released for Electric Fields

Frightened Rabbit headlining, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Arab Strap, Crash Club, and yet it moves and Brat and the bonemem were all they've released

Jamiroquai back on the scene and has confirmed for boardmasters, and the KC weekend on their website is blank in between two other weekend dates... That's my logic anyway!

Im sort of starting to think this announcement could be pretty naff ! And it could even be like 1 year an announcement to tell you when the announcement is going to happen! 

Bet you an extra bonus pint thurlow it's not all the headliners !!! You can just see it going that way !

the actual text from their message is;

 

' Click subscribe below to be the first to receive an early pre-sale ticket link at 9:50am on Friday 27th before tickets go on general sale at 10am! Line-up incoming 7pm Thursday… '

be quite a few pissed off people if this translates to a 'we will announce in 3 weeks' etc as it reads pretty explicit!

i agree last years announced was rushed because Y not dropped a bomb .

 

Just went through the link at the top of the forum page and have also checked the official site.

Tickets not on sale !!!!!!

They have taken them off and they are not going back on sale until Friday at 9am.

At a higher price of course :(

My rant at how expensive KC is will be even worse this year than usual.

the price sharp mounts up when all the hidden fees go on, a family of 4 plus emperors and Thursday tickets can easy cost an extra £100 in booking and postage costs

Aye. A family of 4 can be cheaper at Glastonbury depending on kids ages.

I think it`s a bit shit you have to pay extra for the Thursday. I pay extra for the Emperors field to save the walk ( it`s my age ) but with the cost, fees and the Thursday you would expect some decent headliners.

Why have they taken tickets off sale ? I was looking to buy mine tonight :help:

After Camp Bestivals announcement I'm wondering if we could get Brian Wilson as one of the headliners, lochland has indicated that all saints and right said Fred are playing this year and they are both at camp bestival, so maybe there's a headliner or two to be shared

    • If you had to come through the fence after coming down the hill if you weren’t already down the hill then you were probably in general. From there the blocks of toilets, showers and water points aren't far at all and to your right is aldi. I know of the lake but apparently it fills up super quick and is noisy and loads of bugs....I got bitten as it was lol. But I joined a solo camp WhatsApp group so followed them.

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.
