NoBuses Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 Just now, thetime said: Liam is a weird one for me, wasn't really that popular post oasis until last couple of years. Now all of a sudden his headline material, I know its perhaps the amount of oasis tunes he does. Would he off been headline material with beady eye if they threw in half a dozen oasis tunes? Just don't get the huge surge to headliner. His solo stuff is decent and he actually sings well now. He is massive with Indie crowd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the top 5 will be (in no particular order): Liam Gallagher KSI AJ Tracey Post Malone Stormzy KSI, Bad Boy Chiller Crew (for the size of the tent), Stormzy, AJ Tracey, Mabel, Post Malone, The Kid Laroi and Becky Hill will all have big crowds for me 21 minutes ago, manchestermusicreview said: Smallest? I reckon interest in the Hunna has dried up, and I fear for Girl in Red against Liam Gallagher and Crucast. Conversely, Dinosaur Pile-up should have a good showing thanks to those who aren’t into rap/grime. The Hunna (obviously), The Hara (are they the new Hunna?), Disclosure and IDKHOW will flop for me, not convinced by TDCC subbing either these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) 21 minutes ago, thetime said: I would of thought biffy would get a bigger crowd than Liam, wasn't Liam seen as a weak headliner when announced. Not headlined a major festival, whilst biffy have the pedigree as a headliner. Not a chance. Liam will be packed, the oasis tunes carry him a long way. Reckon Two Door must be in with a shout for biggest crowd - not much on at the same time as them and very well known/easy listening --- Niko B and BBCC will be rammed also Edited August 24, 2021 by gfa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon further inspection Bloxx will struggle against Wolf Alice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran 15 minutes into Blossoms set at Tramlines and I’ve never seen a tent empty quicker. Must have been demoralising as hell. Deserve better.

Drenge closed one of the smaller stages in 2019 and there must’ve been no more than 50 people in to say it was pretty much a hometown gig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSmurphy Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 Have an great festival everyone! It's been a pleasure, as always, living the highs and lows of this thread throughout the last two years. This is the first year I won't be attending since 2013, the first since I signed up to this forum, and it feels surreal. But I'm sure it'll be an amazing weekend. I hope to see y'all in 2022 with Rage Against The Machine or QotSA 🤘. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
