Interesting to keep an eye on movements - Mabel for example seems to have moved from the Friday to the Monday according to website, 

Well, that's Friday out for us. Mabel was the only act I had down to watch on the Friday. A night in the city beckons.

Silver lining? Friday night in town, being dragged to the island for one act can be a ballache! I'm wondering if she's opening the stage on Monday or perhaps more likely an A38 act

We all agree : Mad Cools line up is great. No doubt about it.

BUT ! ... there's no camping. And in my opinion, it is hard to call a music event a "festival" when there's no camping. Even if I know many of you guys wouldn't agree with me lol..

I’m sorry for the ignorant question: what are other famous, or not, festivals where it is possible camping?

I don't know.. the more days pass by without any new information.. the more I'm convinced Eminem is now out of the picture. He might have been booked at one point.. but I'm not sure if he still is. I asked my friend who works for Live Nation and while he clearly can't and will not say much to me, it was clear that Eminem and touring in general has been a sketchy thing from the beginning, with things changing all the time. The virus thing does not help as well, making things sketchier.

I always doubted that Eminem would do Festivals. He just did an Europe Tour 2018. I think the info was just wrong from the beginning. I do believe at least one of the last two missing headliners dropped out but that none of them was/is Eminem.

    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
