stanh Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Yeah, nobody is saying George isn't big elsewhere in the UK, just had a pretty large following in Cornwall - another example I can think of is Gerry Cinnamon, pretty big around the UK, but absolutely huge in Scotland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the reasoning for it, I guess it's just one of those things, most people in the comments and everything seem particularly excited about him too adding to that as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanh Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 Still not the best announcement for me, definitely seems they've splurged all their budget on the headliners and subs (other than The Lathums). But that being said, it seems to have sold very well, so I'm probably a bit out of touch - even if it is (in my opinion) considerably weaker than last year. Aside from that, even though Chaos In The CBD isn't a new name for this announcement, they're cool - hadn't noticed them being there. Then I also quite like the additions of Mae Muller, The Rills, Shane Codd and Shift K3y. Would be nice to see Shapes get added in the next (probably final) announcement.

Will b Posted March 4 Author Report Share Posted March 4 It sold very well from the first announcement - I’d say more than half of the people I knew who got tickets are now looking to sell after the 2nd and 3rd. I can’t speak for those outside the 17-19 age range but it has not gone down well with us (after a promising first 20 names) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be shocked if it's relatively easy to get a below face value ticket, especially nearer the time - unless they pull like a special guest out of the bag, which I'm doubtful about.

It was like that in 2021 - doesn't really matter to the festival honestly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
