Stereophonics didn’t headline that long ago, bombay bumped up from sun to headliner this year and blossoms are a pretty weak headliner imo when they are thursday at truck and sub at tramlines. Plenty of people I’d see just a bit underwhelming for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know why that is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 I quite like this lineup honestly for my taste, but seems a bit weak when you compare it to truck's with blossoms on thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its independent so I'd imagine it will be in relation the risk, insurance, budget... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swelsbyuk Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Looks weak compared to the line-up just announced by Boardmasters. That said, it's also significantly cheaper than Boardmasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think getting MSP as a sub is brilliant. Tbf I'd watch MSP, DMAs though I think their earlier stuff is better. Jake Bugg, James and Levellers.

FakeEmpire Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 I bought tickets for the first time after my other 2 July festivals got binned off. I'm super happy with it to be honest - there's more I want to see than I'll actually get around to seeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackFoxx Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Pretty happy with this, strength in depth down the line-up and can't complain with the cheaper price at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanWhite Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Pleasantly surprised at that. Been wanting to see The Lathums, Reytons and Snuts for a while. Plus any line up with Sleaford Mods in it is gonna be sweet! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efcfanwirral Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Wow that's much better than kendal. Just purchased so we have tickets to both now, hedging our bets but going to shift kendal if both are happening. This is way more me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hirstys 12th Pint Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 I'd happily take James and Frank Turner at Tramlines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatTFBguy Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 That lineup has made me dislike the tramlines one even more, anyone fancy swapping tickets? Sickening how much better Y Not is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBarbour Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 The undercard is a lot stronger than the headliners, it's a strange line up to get your head around that. 1 minute ago, thatTFBguy said: That lineup has made me dislike the tramlines one even more, anyone fancy swapping tickets? Sickening how much better Y Not is. I can't get my head round Tramlines being 15 quid more expensive at this point and with no camping 😆 I think the Boardmasters line up is probably the most interesting and less samey than the mid level events.

Zebes Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Not a bad line up really. Saturday is a bit weak with BBC headlining but not complaining either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efcfanwirral Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 I really like them, think they deserve it and think they're very good live but surely Blossoms have stepped in for someone who cancelled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efcfanwirral Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 And...a general question for who went in 2018 and 2019. My last time was that fateful year in 2017, what's changed? Does anyone know what measures have been put in place to avoid such a catastrophic situation where bands cancel and we get sent home because it rains?

There would more likely have never been anyone there in the first place to cancel. One of the headliners will have been booked at the last minute, that's what they've been waiting for.

More drainage has been put in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
