Yeah what happened to him? Occasionally he drops in for a browse, but tantalisingly left on 19,999 posts.

I still think he's saving his big 20,000 for the Nick Cave headline confirmation.

No idea. Same goes for Scruffylovemonster whose username just disappeared too. Would love to know.

Just need a post that suggests Adele's right with her view on taxes, Floyd not headlining in 2008 instead of Kings of Leon was a good thing and a huge Nick Cave dis and I think it'd be enough to bait him out of retirement.

Fecking Radiohead....! There back catalogue is the musical equivalent of Princess Di's funeral..

Radiohead are an abomination. They disappeared up their own arses around 20 years ago and I find it almost unbelievable that people tolerate them. I hate them nearly as much as I hate Mumford & Sons.

The Pink Floyd diatribe is an annual tradition round these parts.

Just logged in and saw this thread was “hot” and thought something had happened and got all excited there!!! Nope.

This truly has been a weird year for speculation.

Sorry that’s my fault for saying naughty things about the Chilli Peppers.

Just to clarify, The Killers may not be my cup of tea but they've done exceptionally well for a band fronted by a Hotel Transylvania toy that the rest of the group found in a Happy Meal.

I hope the Killers mix it up a bit this year for their headline slot, they could Barndon Flowers solo album in full.?

To be fair the chilli peppers were responsible for one of the worst gigs i've ever been to and it's not just because it was at the Stadium of Light, they were just utter shite. Charged a scandalous amount of money for 2012 as well.

      Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.

      We'll see. Bristol and Leeds are both massively overdue big public transport investment - 2 of the cities with the worst transport infrastructure per capita in Western Europe. If this works to help support investment projects great and fair play to Burnham.

      Sziget 2026

      By CCester · Posted

      The Bródy Day was his idea because Sziget has always been late when it comes to this kind of concert. They would only organize farewell performances or tribute shows after an artist had passed away. Since Bródy is one of the country's greatest singer-songwriters, they wanted to honor him while he is still alive. (He didn't say it exactly like that, but the man is 80 and has just stopped playing large concerts.) He never understood why anyone would focus exclusively on one generation, especially Gen Z, who have less disposable income, drink less, and are, in his words, "afraid of partying." He explained that in the past, people loved festivals because of the nonstop partying, whereas many younger people today find that experience overwhelming or exhausting. That's one of the reasons why Sziget will introduce more chill zones and sensory-friendly spaces. They also want to attract older generations, who are generally more willing and able to spend money. The Sziget Icons days are aimed at this audience, and in the future they hope to create a more balanced lineup that appeals to people over 35 as well.   It was a long interview. If anything else comes to mind, I'll share it.
