gregory Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) If you just book a normal National Express coach from London to Winchester, what are you options on arrival? Anyone know? It is about £50 cheaper booking the normal busses from East Anglia than booking it through the official "to the festival" National Express ticket.

He's playing Boardmasters, which would normally have ruled him out. But the no lineup announcement is breaking all the rules.

I would have thought it’s a bit soon to have them back, they had a big crowd but the sound was a bit rubbish, and they play a lot of their B sides. Which is great if you’re really, really into Gorillaz. Lots of people left pretty early on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind, APE keep billing them as a “UK festival exclusive”, so I’d say it’s pretty unlikely they’re gonna show up elsewhere a week before their exclusive headline slot in London.

No B sides, but a lot of new stuff, which is testing if you are not a big fan I guess https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/gorillaz/2018/the-matterley-bowl-winchester-england-43e8b3ff.html Fair play to Damon for bringing Gruff SFA, Shaun Ryder, De La Soul etc. out though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also played pretty much all of their well known songs aside from 19-2000, but i think people expected them to start with Feel Good Inc, Clint Eastwood or Dare, which they were never going to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr flow Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 One of the Boomtown bookers is also booking The Common line up at Glastonbury, so i'd expect a lot of the below playing at Boomtown as well:- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sku Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) All of these acts have now either already self confirmed, or are "regulars" who might as well have been. A good friend of mine has been on a mass DM campaign of suspected artists, and helped dig a lot of these extra names out.

Which means imperial leisure will Probably play too seeing as they share 90% of their band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjfromthelane Posted May 12, 2022 Report Share Posted May 12, 2022 Critical Music was included on a Boomtown Insta post of 'collectives' who will be there so I think we can add the likes of Kasra, Enei, Halogenix to the DnB list. Didn't know too many of the others but looks like Dubtendo stage will be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry3 Posted May 17, 2022 Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 Decided to try and bag a ticket for Boomtown this year. Always thought it was better when it was all connected together in the bowl, and hoping the lack of lineup will drive away the ketamine and DnB addicted kind of person that I used to be 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
