Cannedm 2 Report post Posted July 11 Bit underwhelming imo. I would have thought they'd have kept a bigger act till last to push the tickets. Anyone know how the sales are doing? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Funktownbro 10 Report post Posted July 11 There's still a gab on the Friday in the BBC tent, so probably is going to be something there, probably the rumored Frank Turner...or maybe something completely different...

Smeble 155 Report post Posted July 11 Excuse my ignorance but is that a band called extinction rebellion or the actual rabble that bought London to a standstill? If it’s the latter then I fear for the festival, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were at Glastonbury as well, however they didn't doing anything prominent nor to the scale of what they were doing round London, they're probably collaborating with the festival with their eco ethos = EDIT = Checked the website, these are the non-violent protesters and they're doing a couple of talks about climate change during the festival so nothing to worry about Edited July 11 by Chapple12345 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rappers regularly have guest artists come out for performances so it wouldn't be surprising. On a similar note, anyone have any predictions for guest appearances during sets? Mine is Gary Lightbody making an appearance with Stereophonics to make up for Snow Patrols cancellation Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ORLANDO 1 Report post Posted July 12 (edited) To be honest Ive been a fan of Latitude for a number of years but can't see it lasting much longer to be honest. The identity it had has gone. The line up is really poor this year, bouncing between new mostly unheard of cheaper acts and really beige Radio Two fair. Where has the money been spent on these acts. There is no one near the budget of the Killers. Unless they pull it out the bag with with a decent surprise act of the like of LG like last year I fear there isn't going to be much to remember it by. And no I don't consider Frank Turner a real crowd pleaser or talking point. The camping situation has put a lot of noses out of joint and FR seem to be more interested in pushing all their corporate sponsors on their social channels than keeping the punters updated as to who's playing, times etc etc. I loved Latitude and have gone along with my brother and families for a number of years but this is without a doubt our last one. Can someone please sadly turn the lights out when we leave this year Edited July 12 by ORLANDO 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely that's going to be a straight logistics thing - they know exactly how many tickets they've sold for family camping, and how many they've sold for general. If they've massively increased the size, it'll be because that's where the ticket sales have been. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone else think thats a bit of an odd choice? Family camping put right up to what i think will be one of the loudest parts of the festival (main entrance to arena / all the Village) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they've massively increased the size, it'll be because that's where the ticket sales have been. I understand the logic. Its just odd, putting them right near the entrance, where those pesky yoofs used to get their party on. For example, why not utilise the family campervan area for family camping and put family campervans somewhere else? Now, those yoof partiers (I wish i was young) will infiltrate the red campers, which will piss them off etc.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chapple12345 4 Report post Posted July 12 Saturday tickets now sold out, I imagine since the announcement of Stereophonics as Snow Patrol didn't seem a bit draw, there clearly is some interest still there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Found it in the app yesterday. It says podcast but I assume he's actually going to be there recording the podcast? I can't imagine they'd just be playing it in the background? And if he is there doing the podcast, you'd hope he'd be playing some kind of a set at some point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chapple12345 4 Report post Posted July 15 Very relieved personally, my only clashes are the acts that I've previously seen so wasn't too bothered about if I missed them this time, the comedy also works in my favour as normally it clashes with other acts during the day like Harry Hill and Liam Gallagher last year (don't judge my taste 😂) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
