Mouseboy11 Posted May 8, 2020 Report Share Posted May 8, 2020 Arctics on the TBHC tour was probably the best I've seen them for what it's worth, a massive improvement over previous tours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalopsia Posted May 8, 2020 Report Share Posted May 8, 2020 I watched them on tv in 2013 and thought they nailed it so on the back of that I got tickets to seem them in Cardiff and was very disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigger123 Posted May 8, 2020 Report Share Posted May 8, 2020 Slightly off topic but when do we think we will get our first headliner announcement? Given other festivals have already started releasing their lineups for next year, do we think we could potentially expect a nice little announcement over the weekend the fest is supposed to be on this year? I know Glastonbury don’t tend to release lineups as early as other fests but obviously these are not normal times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be suprised if we got something on the day they were playing a year in advance ... maybe not the time because that might be too late to get any press ..

I think we’ll hear something earlier than normal, but not sure when. Maybe the summer? If they’re rolling over a chunk of the 2020 lineup I think e could have a big announcement of that first, rather than an individual headliner one.

Am are weird. They’ve played the festival twice but the looming chance of them playing again seems to hold over the festival every year. I really like them and I’ve enjoyed them in the four times I’ve seen them. I think the “AM or bust” lot on social media gives them a bit of a bad rep but I do like them as a band. They do have some fantastic songs. I must admit I don’t know where they are going at the moment. AM was probably the biggest album of their career globally, Tranquility was divisive... and the more I think about it the more I’m not too sure whether I like it. I never put it on and listen to it, if that’s any indicator of anything. I have no idea where the band are going now so there is a big ? over their future. I reckon this lines them up for another big comeback. I think all they have to do is release a more commercially friendly record and things will be back to AM levels. Their fanbase is very strong.

I enjoyed them a lot last time, Alex is the most charismatic front man if I'm honest but the only thing I really thought could have been better was a faster version of Mardy Bum. That aside, setlist was probably as good as I could have hoped for at the time. They aren't who I would choose but they are far from what I'd dislike.
