More artists mean a higher chance to find something interesting. But perhaps it's just me not having as eclectic taste as festival bookers ?

swelsbyuk Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 I don't dislike the aftermovie but it's not a patch on the last few years' efforts. I mean, they're trying to condense seven days of fun into two minutes - it was never going to be great! In honesty, it looks more like the trailer for the aftermovie than the aftermovie itself! Fingers crossed it means we might have an announcement soon though (although I don't get paid until the end of the month so Prime anytime soon would be a tad annoying!) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the cheapest ticket price (only by ten or twenty euros) and a small load of merch. Think last year's included a beanie, a bag and some badges and bits - probably 30 euros worth if bought at the festival.

swelsbyuk Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 What about Springsteen? Looks likely he's playing europe next summer. Classed as a heritage act? Or such an icon that Sziget might be interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1SzigetFan Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) Just saw that now the Sziget staff released the new version of MyMusic app, so we have now another way to tell them what we want in the lineup. And this time we can enter up to 10 acts. Sadly, as in previous years, it doesn't let me to type in Eagles of Death Metal. Here is my list: Edited October 14, 2019 by #1SzigetFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people only went for realistic wishes it would leave Sziget inside a tired comfort zone. Unrealistic wishes push the boundaries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
