Really not bothered by a Billie/QOTS Friday night. Hope that’s wrong.

I'm kinda with you on that. Billie does nowt for me and I've never really been into QOTSA. But as nikkic points out I'll just be at another stage! Still got my hopes pinned on the original plan of the Manics playing Friday night

Manics on The Park, Little Simz on WH and something dancey on JP would be a pretty balanced spread.

Though the idea that's there's *always* something amazing on one of the other stages doesn't always hold true. I've definitely had nights with slim pickings.

True, but a very small percentage.

I’ve had 1 night across 8 festivals where nothing took my fancy. 

Ended up wandering around SE Corner and had a blast anyway.

That is true (been there myself), but there's always a decent chance you'll find something to amuse you. The chances of there being something you properly don't enjoy on every stage is even slimmer.

Aye...but you're there to see the best bands in the world, not a pub band.

My exact thoughts last time when it was Kendrick and Fatboy.  I’d have wandered off to another smaller stage and had an amazing time

Not really true I would say. Always something and often amazing Djs and non music stuff. Be very hard not to find something great, I am there for far more than just seeing "best bands in the world"

During the day sure.....but ending the evening with a bang is definitely my M.O.

2017 Sunday was a bit grim. I thought Ed vs BBK was a bit weird. I was going to go to Justice but it wasn’t really what I fancied at the time. I think I saw metronomy in the JP instead.

Late night DJ options were pretty shit that night too. Think we just sat somewhere and got waved.

    • Three Scottish bands with a bunch of hits behind them, must be more to be added to this lineup as it's over 3 days, targeting the local crowd rather than people travelling methinks. 
    • Rodrigo y Gabriela, the Grammy-winning guitar duo confirm UK live dates for March 2207, Belfast Mandela Hall, 16 March Glasgow O2 Academy, 27 Manchester Albert Hall, 19 Birmingham Town Hall, 20 London O2 Shepherds Bush Empire, 21
    • 2 jobs ago, i used to cycle to work - 20 miles every day, rain or shine... i did that for 5 or 6 years.   during that time, all the shows i went to i bought shirts in size M as they fit perfect all was good.   fast forward to now, my bike sits forlorn in the garage... and every single one of those t-shirts serves only as an embarrassing reminder...
