There is music on the Saturday but it's through the Glasgow streets, and it'll be bald, middle-aged men singing about things that happened 400 years ago. Nice sweeping generalisation which is utter bollocks Add the 50 k + people watching it like they have for decades why should they stop for a 1 year old festival??? Heard next year the OO have compromised and moving to bellahouston so it’s all good. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 It was funny though, even if it was a generalisation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenfire Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 It’s taken 39 pages but finally a thread about a Scottish music festival has descended into sectarian chat. Good work folks! Back to the last headliner... I’m running out of ideas since Muse aren’t playing anywhere apparently. Since they aren’t playing Reading, do we think Royal Blood could feesibly headline with a decent support? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been thinking about that as well, I just don’t think they’re big enough, they would’ve made a great sub to Muse, but I think the last headliner will be Florence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuielooie Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hope the last announcement isn't Kings of Leon or FOB. Actually, FOB would be better partnered with P!ATD subbing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claire96 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 FOB struggled to sell out arenas the last time in Scotland I think? Their last two records haven't done that brilliantly, and I don't know anyone my age or younger who still listens to them. I was holding all my hope out on Muse, so I'm stumped.

Stuart1000 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Surprised to see Justin Timberlake announcing a 2nd date at The Hydro for Friday 6th July, clashing with the unannounced TRNSMT date. Wouldn’t surprise me to see a placeholder announcement (even of the support acts, if not the headliner) in the next few days to counteract.

DomDom1984 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm pretty sure it'll be Kings of Leon. As for Fall Out Boy, I can see them and Panic doing the Edinburgh Summer Sessions gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart1000 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Just noticed that Justin Timberlake hasn’t even sold out Standing for his first night at The Hydro. Maybe won’t be as much of a threat as I first thought.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure who they’d be announcing that would put Timbetlake fans in two minds about it, looking at who’s been announced so far. Different target audiences, really. 25 minutes ago, DomDom1984 said: I'm pretty sure it'll be Kings of Leon. As for Fall Out Boy, I can see them and Panic doing the Edinburgh Summer Sessions gig. KOL make more sense for GSS, surely? Unless there’s only the one gig this year. I feel like we’d know by now if Kings of Leon were around earlier than August.

FOB are a strange one these days - in terms of trying to figure out what their target live audience would be. Save Rock and Roll was a solid pop rock record with songs that fitted in well with their back catalogue, but yeah, their new albums are quite a departure from that, in their quest to remain mainstream, and they'll have lost some fans. They were excellent supporting Biffy at GSS a couple of years back tbf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Day Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 I find this whole thing strange and can't think why they haven't released the line up for the 6th. It's baffling how they can try and punt 5 day tickets without even a hint of who's playing that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very very strange. Unless they've not finalised the final headliner, which would be ridiculous at this point in time, or they've got a huge act that's going to sell a shitload of tickets in a short period of time.
