Not a lineup for me, but just seeing live music will be surreal and incredible. Not just seeing live music, its gonna be that overall feeling of being at a festival, its blowing my mind just thinking about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. I’m so excited to just walk around the festival site and just take in the crowds. Will be an incredible weekend! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you mean wouldn't be doing this? The original line up for 2020 was Brown, Catfish and Madness. It was only some/most of the under-card that got carried over for 2021.

James360 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 100% agree with those that say it is a weaker line up, however as I said previously COVID times means they have to get bands who can play rather than go all out for those that come from far and wide to play. Not too fussed about the streets. I am more than up for royal blood . And super grass were great when I saw them about 9/10 years ago…a fun band to watch. but more importantly for me is we get to see live music, so I for one will be enjoying every band I see whether it is someone I particularly want to see or just seeing as there is nothing else I fancy watching. I will enjoy being around fellow people who are also out to enjoy the occasion for what it is after being deprived of festivals for so long now. as well as this I am going to fully enjoy taking my daughter to her first ever festival…so for this and all the reasons above regardless of the line up it is going to be one hell of a party and I cannot wait! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBarbour Posted July 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 I do agree with others that this line up is weak to average at best. I understand some of the struggles the festival and bookers may have faced putting it together and not knowing if it will/could go ahead. I think going forward we'll get more of these levels of line ups at similar capacity events because of the shifts that have occurred in the music industry in the past year. The under-card is lacking. Generally that's where these mid-tier events shine through with a strong under-card of up-and-coming acts. Supergrass is a decent replacement considering the circumstances. They are the last band I seen live before COVID hit and they were great, that was in an academy venue though so not sure how they will translate outside, headlining. I believe Supergrass would of been pencilled in for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the new "house band" for these mid-tier events it would seem, much like The Libs, Stereophonics and Noel before them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already told my group I'm off to watch Little Simz by myself, she's gonna be huge once her new album drops so it'll be great to catch her in a tent.

Tramlines being saved by no festivals for 16 months, normal times that lineup would surely lead to lack of ticket sales. Unfortunately agreed.

thatTFBguy Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Fickle Friends have dropped out (due to bassist having an injured shoulder, not covid related). F*ck sake! That’s three bands I’ve lost from an already not to my taste lineup. Basically just Circa Waves, BLOXX and Vistas for me now, and the later two might clash. Still glad for any live music but man what are the odds! Least I’ve got Leeds and Neighbourhood Weekender tickets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live in the area so go every year. Totally okay with a lineup not being to my taste just getting frustrated as it feels like everyday someone is dropping out and so far it’s been very skewed to acts I wanted to see.

KBR1991 Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Anyone seen anything on entry requirements regarding those with immunity? I may have missed it, I am currently COVID positive and come out of isolation Friday this week. I don’t have second vaccine and can’t do lateral flow (absolute shite I did 4 all negative) so will I need my positive confirmation? I’ve emailed tramlines but they never replied.

At entry, ticket holders (except children under 11) will be asked for proof of EITHER: A negative COVID result from a lateral flow test taken within the previous 48 hours.
