madmaninabox Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) In and event that may shock many people on this forum, I'm posting a link to a survey that has nout to do with coursework. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/MJ3FCCN Anyone else sick of never seeing the results of these thing? I'll publish the result of this one after 14 days. (1st October) Basically if it was you instead of Eavis who would you book to headline Glastonbury 2020:. Cheers. To clarify approach this as if you are booking the festival. Whilst your favourite bands will probably feature it would be a bit naff to bankrupt Glastonbury to book three bands you could only watch one of anyway Edited September 16, 2019 by madmaninabox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maelzoid Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 To clarify... Are you looking for a dream line-up that would please me, or a perfect line-up in terms of pleasing the masses of festival attendees. Of course my dream line-up would ultimately end up being a nightmare due to clashes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry_W01 Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Done, I agree with @maelzoid I would have liked a question about the legends spot. I look forward to the results! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you are in the position of booking the festival, so your dream line up could run the risk of very low ticket sales the year after whereas as something more pragmatic might be more sensible. You don't want to bankrupt the festival so it never happens again for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be absolutely no point in booking a festival with Metallica on Main Stage and AC/DC on second for me, as I'd have to sacrifice watching one of them and it would blow a whole in the budget. Even though I love both bands, so I'd go for Metallica and AC/DC headlining with some shit dance bands (Chemical Brothers and Daft Punk) on other stage, pragmatic idealism is the point.

Bennykill Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 that is tougher than i thought, i went for a mix of bands i really want and ones that would satisfy a crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers. The problem with this sort of thing is that everyone pretty much makes a list of their favourite acts. And also they tend not to think about next year, when they'd also need to book a line-up - of completely different acts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but we could get a good laugh out of some the suggestions (which to be honest was more the point... :p) Should be interesting either way if somewhat useless as a actual guage of who should play.

madmaninabox Posted September 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 A handful of you would definitely be bankrupting the festival with your choices. The pragmatic part of idealism went for a walk I assume? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubby Dude in a Tiny Car Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 thanks for posting this - i am in no mood to do any work this morning and at least this makes me look busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthbanKen Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 That is actually a really tough excersize, but good fun - my line up is a clash nightmare for me, but hopefully a good mix and i have tried to group the pyramid line up by day to minimise having to move to other stages. I really struggled with West Holts as i am not really sure what the vibe is on that stage as other than stumbling across Lizzo last year (who is promoted to the Pyramid as a result) i have never watched anyone there.

Slugworth Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Done. I’ve done what I’d consider a strong line up but not my dream as it gets a bit ridiculous doesn’t it....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
