jump Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 I would have thought they would be laughed at but Dappy did headlined the 1 Xtra stage not too long ago. Did he get a big crowd when he played in 2019? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad888 Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 RIP Andy Fletcher of Depeche Mode. I'd guess that their inclusion on "who do you want to headline next year" will be removed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyrhodes24 Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 This Tom Grennan set at Big Weekend is so weak. Again, can’t remember him at Leeds last year, it’s incredibly vanilla. If Big Weekend is the radio-friendly blueprint for R&L’s future I’m not on board at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has no marketability, no matter how much money they are splashing to push him on every imaginable platform, radio shows, appearances he is absolutly bombing. His highest charting song broke in to the top 40 by 1, his latest few singles didn't even hit the top 80. All image and no substance and even the kids are seeing that. The British Nickelback / Imagine Dragons. I'm picturing his headline set - cotton candy, I think I'm okay, hope for the under rated youth, the funeral, memories... thats it?

Bit of a fad Tbh big weekend crowds are always a bit muted because they pick up a lot of people who flat out don’t go to festivals / know anyone playing. But yeah Yungblud was a mess. It’s just a complete image rip off of many acts who’ve done it better. Feels overly manufactured to cater to teenage angst, and I don’t think people are biting. Like when the machine tries too hard to fit a formula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, it’s all just a really poor spin on an act that’s been done a thousand times before.

WhoOdyssey Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 (edited) His most recent album sold 40k in the first week, most artists would kill for that. Not a chance the label will drop him. There’s no point looking at singles chart positions for indie/rock acts. Catfish and the Bottlemen only ever had one Top 40 single. The main reason for that being is that they just don’t get pushed on the big Spotify/Apple Music playlists, being added to Hot Hits UK on Spotify can make pretty much anything chart.

Hate that he has a backing track though but he uses it because he runs around a lot. Good crowd interaction and tried his best on a main stage crowd at big weekend which is well know to be pretty lacking energy wise. I think you also have to remember watching someone on tv is completely different to actually being there with live music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
