A costume of a man Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 It's one of those where I'm trying not to get hopes up whilst also thinking - "well, wouldn't they have just cancelled if it wasn't going ahead by now?!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebes Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 One of the hold ups could be that some acts have pulled out and there's now a scramble on to get those replaced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TipToes24 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Im talking it that no news is good news, I feel like they must be working on/towards something other wise they’d have let us know about cancelling by now, with it being 4 weeks away i can only think they’d have pulled the plug already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll need assurances now though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably it can't be them as: - they're also doing tramlines which is going ahead - they're only playing UK dates all the way until August, it looks like their plan is to travel here, quarantine and then do the string of only UK summer dates Kelis is an international act, but I mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A costume of a man Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Disappointing, but if that's the biggest hit we'd take then so be it. Just need to know one way or another now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite positive so I'm looking at it as all the evidence is adding up. Hopefully we get an announcement tomorrow now. Will see soon enough.

wro_lap Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 With Standon going ahead I suddenly have a slight sense of optimism about this. Wonder who could swap in for DMAs if it goes ahead? Maybe The Kooks or Hot Chip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it could be: DMA's, Pale Waves, Kelis and Eve that are out. Doesn't Tim Booth live in LA? Not sure where that leaves James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he has been in the UK for a while holed up with the band rehearsing for the London opens up gig that didn't happen. He's certainly been on UK TV programmes over the last fortnight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TipToes24 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 With DMAs dropping out of tramlines for you think they would find a replacement of the same caliber? I’m unsure how it works with payment now they can’t travel. There’s a few acts knocking about id be happy with as replacements….but even if they don’t replace them and the festival goes ahead I won’t be too bothered as I’d do anything for some live music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
