jump Posted March 16, 2022 Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 40 minutes ago, Matt42 said: The people complaining usually want acts who played the previous year. I find this trend on social media all the time. Do people buy a ticket / decide to go and expect the exact same lineup as the year before? It’s weird. Is it the FOMO from seeing last years sets? Or they only know/like 3 bands/artists so they want to see those 3 bands/artists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted March 16, 2022 Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 Dua Lipa, Tyler and the 1975 are a pretty weak trio. I wouldn't say any of them is particularly strong compared to say AM this year. Feels incredibly cheap - they could defo get something a bit bigger than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was you not here when the headliners were Fallout Boy, Kings of Leon, Panic at the Disco?! Even the year after it was 1975, Post Malone, 21 Pilots, Foo Fighters. Dua Lipa, Tyler, 1975, Sam Fender, Yungblud, Doja Cat will sell the weekend tickets out immediately. Every school leaver wants to see those, compared to say Blink 182, Greenday, MCR, Metallica etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benj Posted March 16, 2022 Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 As it’s my current campaign. I’m going to assume they see sense and go back to the R1! MS - Sam Fender > Doja Cat Dua Lipa Metallica R1 - Aitch Yungblud (too big? If so he can a ub Lipa, Tom Grennan or some dark fruits stuff instead) Becky Hill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not really right to compare old format anyway as the money is spent so differently. What you suggested is a big budget step down from the last 2 years. I'm not saying book any of those acts you listed by any means - just mean some bigger rappers/indie acts. Tyler and 1975 look tiny vs AM and Dave this year.

She's still doing small venues like Kentish town and is defo not the same size as Aitch and Slowthai who did that slot last year to huge crowds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time they did a uk festival thats not glastonbury was 2018 too (and glastonbury was only 2019 and went down incredibly well). Would be very well received too. I think its insane they haven't played for 15 years in all honesty - they are a home run booking really edit: latitude and trnsmt in 2018 as well actually. point still stands - home run booking Edited March 18, 2022 by gfa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, agree about them not playing R&L for 15 years being crazy, they would have gone down far better than some of the dross we've had since, e.g. KoL.
