Henrik Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Napalm Death were incredible when I saw them at Download a few years back. Will be happy to see them again. Awesome! Website says they are playing on the Thursday? Is that right? Didn't think there would be much happening on the Thursday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDLES played on Thursday last year, so would imagine Napalm Death will play a similar slot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Definitely makes sense after them having to pull out last year. They were amazing at Glasto - defo know how to play to a crowd that might include a few people... outside of their comfort zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Dead Kennedys fill in after ND dropped out last year? If so is it not likely that they'll play a similar slot to that? I'm pretty sure that was at 'headliner' time (i.e. last of the live acts on the bigger stages around 11-12?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy101 Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Ah I'd missed that they had self confirmed for the Thursday so ignore my waffle above. In other news I've been listening to a bit of Fever 333 today. They'd go down very well down there too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouseboy11 Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Are the Chemical Brothers a feasible choice to headline? Reckon they'd be boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrik Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Fucking hell. Imagine if System Of A Down played! Would be the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be an example of a headliner that was in "beyond wildest dreams" territory. I'd never even considered the idea of them appearing on the lineup, but now I have it seems such an obvious fit. Make it happen, Boomtown! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sku Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 The acts I picked in the tournament are just for fun. A mixture of popular requests, and rumoured acts for this year. Some are unrealistic, and at least a couple might actually be there this year! We'll know for sure this coming Friday ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't bought my ticket yet as I'm not sure if I'm going to go this year as I've a lot on. A lot hinges on the lineup for me this year - I know Boomtown is way more than that - so I've a few bands I'm hoping for that I've heard whispers of!

Radi0Head Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Oh @Sku is Boomtown source, I was guessing you were when another page I follow reposted you. I’ve been following the poll meticulously... i was very annoyed that’s massive attack fell at the first hurdle. Even more so seen as everyone is raving about their new live show.

Radi0Head Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 so The Happy Monday’s appear to be making themselves busy at festivals this summer. Given that Shaun Ryder was there with gorillaz last year perhaps he thought he’ll be back again. They seem like a likely booking. anyone seen them before? Were they any good ?

I saw them at Glastonbury in 2000 and they were such a complete car crash that it was immensely entertaining Although Sean and Bez aren't bang on the gear these days, so would imagine it'll be a lot more professional.See the below clip for evidence.

I saw them support Oasis in 2000... the main things I remember about them is bez in a stupid hat & they had to start a tune 3 times cos Shaun couldnt work out what was going on. As for Friday's big reveal... Prophets of Rage & Groove Armada seem quite likely. Along with Prophets, Aphex Twin is my big hope for Boomtown. I'd rather seem him there than at Glastonbury. What time is the reveal? 7pm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
