It'll sell out regardless of who's playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavorting19 Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 I had heard that the where in talks with robyn to headline a night but she then pulled out as she is doing her own tour.. I found this odd but she does have a big following. This could be rubbish though. Bit of a random one to lie about i guess 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johndenis Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 102 pages of trnsmt speculation, an incredible achievement. The line up is going to honk to high heaven. To be fair to DF they offered very tasteful line ups at Connect (in the first year anyway) and got their fingers burned, so I can understand why they will always look for the lowest common denominator.

The headline bit is mental but they may well have approached Robyn to appear, if the line up is an embarrassing sausage fest (as appears likely).

Cavorting19 Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 The robyn being a headliner is quite the stretch.. possibly juts playing one day but a thought it was interesting as it could have been an idea in what direction they where taking the line ups.. maybe more like T. Robyn being booked in glasgow would bring a huge audience, maybe not 50K but she has a large cult/gay following so thats why i mentioned this as it would make the lines ups more interesting but its obviously going to be very generic and the like somone said the aim is to sell tickets..

wishyboz6 Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 I’m sure that Robyn is headlining Roskilde however she has a massive following in Scandanavia. Not a chance would she be anywhere near headline material for a Scottish festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
