Would be top of my wish list as didn’t see him in 2017. No reason why not, definitely could be there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbadger Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 2 hours ago, FloorFiller said: Well we now have info that Sam Fender is third down Other which is a low slot for him considering his current trajectory so clearly they’re squeezing people in wherever they can and sometimes at the expense of slots they probably warrant, so yeah, might be some big acts in low slots across the board. There's always a few acts who end up playing quite a bit lower than you'd expect, especially on Other. Sometimes acts/managers prefer being on earlier to avoid clashing with other, bigger acts and getting a huge crowd and buzz as a result.

The 1975 being third down Other in 2016 springs to mind as they seemingly didn’t want to lose any of their crowd to Adele. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hazard a guess that the first poster is going to come before the end of the balance payment window so within the next 4 weeks. Headliner/s in the next 2 weeks.

Franco Baresi Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Florence had the biggest crowd I can remember on the Other in 2010, was absolutely heaving with the crowd stretching back to the camping areas, then it emptied nicely to let all the spangled cats have room to dance to Hot Chip in the sunset!! 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
