eFestivals Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Just now, Alan_C said: Really? It comes across to me more like a day gig in a field, than a normal festival. They don't even have to play the same weekend. and surely it's gonna be a bit of a problem next summer if Noel refuses to be on the same bill as Liam. I'm guessing, but I just can't see it. There's enough events to go around for them to avoid each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Noel Gallagher could easily do the second weekend. Not sure why that'd be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_C Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Pre-sale tomorrow isn't it? Surely they have to announce the headliners. It's not as if its a proper festival, where people are camping, and it's not an established one either. Can't see anyone buying a ticket for Friday and the Sunday of the second weekend, without knowing who is headlining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon one or other - or both - would see it as a competition, where it's easy for one to claim they've out-sold the other. As i say, i'm guessing ... but I just can't see them getting into that, especially when there's no need for them to get into that. There's enough places out there that they don't need to be on the same bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neontiger90 Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I can't envisage Stereophonics going down too well as headliners? Last time I saw them was at T in the Park in 2013 (I think), where they subbed the killers and they nearly put the crowd to sleep. Had no energy and looked bored the minute the walked on stage. Maybe caught them on a bad day as I do like a lot of their songs, but I'd be amazed if that day sells well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were better at KC last year but can’t see how their day will sell well at all. Was surprised Radiohead didn’t sell out the Friday last year. Crowd looked much bigger on the Saturday and Sunday. This will be worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what has confused me; they headlined KC this year, so with that logic we could see Franz Ferdinand or MSP headlining TRNSMT. That surely won't happen, right? Right?!

Shootenanny! Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Can't believe they haven't announced more acts already, hard to imagine too many people rushing to buy 3 or 5 day tickets based on the small amount announced so far.

devilman Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Ramblin Man Fair is the same weekend as the first TRNSMT weekend and they haven't announced any headliners yet after delaying the announcement 3 weeks ago due to "exciting developments". Somebody is playing both or playing the organisers off against each other I reckon. LG and Stereos points at least one very expensive headliner to be announced though. I hope it's the 2nd weekend as I'll be at RMF the 1st. I enjoyed Radiohead day last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregory Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 FYI the 5 day tickets in pre-sale are £250 with no booking fee right now, fee should be £25 so quite a good saving if anyone was planning on going for the whole thing. Not going myself, just lettin ya know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two festivals exist in completely different worlds and are better for it so I can guarantee you that won’t be the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've seen Airbourne at both T and RMF fair within 5 years of each other. If TRNSMT was seriously going away from the direction T was going in then it's possible. Just playing devil's advocate though, I would hope you're right. Unless Foos are gonna do someone a favour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulmcm1998 Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 Is it likely they'll announce another headliner this week? Cause I can't see them selling loads of 5 day tickets with the line up in it's current state Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryomatic Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 More acts for Mad Cool the week after TRNSMT http://diymag.com/2017/11/30/kasabian-japandroids-more-headed-mad-cool-2018 Not worried about Kasabian showing up again. But Snow Patrol.... Please no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcrawler Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Seems very unlikely that Snow Patrol will be about around TRNSMT and not headline now. Even with them being away for 5-6 years it’s still a fairly boring booking which says a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
