Loving all the older users of this forum saying no to every young artist mooted as a future headliner.

This is 2020 not 2004.

All the older users? Fuck off with that shit aye??

[Badlands]

There’s a load of people who have reasoned rational opinions on here that I respect. 
There’s plenty that post utter bollocks as well.

Age got fuck all to do with it.

Matt sees himself as the “voice of the yoof” and has a history of inventing young v old poster arguments for him to address despite nobody ever actually saying anything of the sort.

It’s idiocy of the highest order.

[Sasperella]

To clarify, how old must one be to be an older poster??

You’re old as soon as you think Billie Eilish might be a touch overrated.

It's a lazy categorisation as well. It's just the easiest split to reach for when someone suggests Billie Eilish isn't a headliner.

To be fair, this is kind of how I feel about Tory voters... But then I'm counting myself as a young one, and I fear that Matt probably wouldn't

I do think Bad Guy is catchy as fuck though.

I like Bad Guy, gave the album a listen and while I enjoyed the sound and the minimalist production it all sounded a little samey after a while.

Then again, what do I know? I’m 38 and should really be in a home listening to Val Doonigan.

[The Martini Police]

The age argument is especially stupid to use on a forum where someone's mere presence (especially regulars) means they are exposed to  these newer massive artists (Billie Eilish being the perfect example) on a regular basis. It's just a pathetic attempt to delegitimise views. Give it a rest.

To every young artist mooted as a future headliner, I say NO!

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'm old and Santa bought me Billie Eilish and Carly Rae Jepsen on the vinyls.

 

 

 

 

(and Abbey Road)

38? Christ...  I'm surprised they don't turn you away at the gate for your own safety

Of all the people on EFestivals, it is your age that confuses me the most. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Santa just knows what's up 💁‍♂️🎅

People behind me get quite upset when I get my ear trumpet out.

RE: Billie.

Age has nothing to do with it nor does personal opinion however if you think she isn't going to headline some of the biggest festivals in the world you're ignoring a whole lot of evidence that suggests she will.

[priest17]

I wouldn't say I'm old, but I definitely prefer Avril Lavigne.

You're so old you even spelled his name incorrectly. Proper grandad behaviour.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'm like the dad in The Mary Whitehouse Experience saying 'That's got a good beat' about Billie Eilish.

Unfortunately that reference is itself so dated that it's become a self-owning self-own.

I was tempted to post the Grampa Simpson “with it” meme, but it’s too obvious.

I am genuinely surprised I have 12 years on you, I bet you smashed some Dale End shows in your day Hugh
