stalemate9 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Surley you must have heard of Soulfly and Max Cavera? Amazing band. I have been listening to Earth Crisis, Idles and Turbowolf on Spotify this week, all good bands if you're into that sort of thing. I really like hacktivist, they'r kind of a UK rap metal band. Feed the Rhino are blowing me away with their new album, it's a much cleaner guitar sound that most of the bands on this lineup, I expect them to be great live.

vintagelaureate Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Idles are a must see for me! A few other bands, bit of a crossover with last year's Glastonbury (going to happen being earache). Looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted February 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) it's about to sell out of 'normal' tickets, which means the coaches will then go quickly because people will panic. if you want a ticket, get in there now!

deadpheasant Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) Are Limp Bizkit headlining? On the website it says they're headlining the Town Centre not Lions Den like Die Antwoord & Gorillaz.

stalemate9 Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 I have seen them advertised as headliners but you're right it does say Town Centre on the website. I hope they don't clash with Gorillaz I want to see both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadpheasant Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 I thought perhaps Lions Den is closed on Sunday for licencing reasons or something but I can see that's when Jimmy Cliff is playing so surely they'd still be after a headliner for then.

stalemate9 Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 "Joining the Gorillaz 2018 UK exclusive headlining slot are South African trio Die Antwoord, ‘Rollin’ rap-rockers Limp Bizkit. That makes it sound like those are the 3 headliners to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stalemate9 Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) Are we expecting a lineup today? I thought it was supposed to be Fridays and Tuesdays but not seen anything teased today. Edit: They just posted on twitter that The Copper County (formerly Wild West) district line-up is landing at 5 pm today.

glastonburynoodles Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Plenty on the last two announcements to keep me happy, I can feel plenty of clashes in the offing. Can't wait, definitely the highlight of my last two summers and I am sure this will make it three in a row Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm certain The Specials were listed on the website as Town Centre last year and I can remember being pretty confused as to whether there were two main stages or not as MIA and Cypress Hill were both listed as being Lion's Den (last year was my first Boomtown). Think it's listed like that as they don't fit into the usual Trenchtown reggae/dub lineup. They'd surely be far too big for Town Centre, even if playing across from Gorillaz? Would be dangerously busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
