If they are playing nearby and haven't sold out their tour that could actually be a factor in them not being announced as a lot of people could think I won't bother buying tickets I'll just catch them at the festival so they may well just be a later announcement. Thank you, nice to be here. Good point, hopefully they’ll be announced at a later date then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would expect to see the likes of Yard Act, Shame and The Murder Capital turn up in these places. Yard Act especially you'd think were a sure thing for Left Field. Talk Show too.

Stokesy10 Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 2 hours ago, Hugh Jass II said: Definitely expected the Manics on there... Still wouldn't be shocked to see them there though. Random thought: were they left off because their name was too long? They already had Megan Thee Stallion, Nightmares on Wax and NGHFB around that part of the poster... Great theory and I hope that's the case, though very unlikely. I'm a sad act who squints my eyes before I look at the poster, so I can get some paper to put on the screen and reveal each act 1 at a time... was gutted when I knew Manics weren't on that line. And instantly confused at the thought of Amyl and the Sniffers subbing...til I realised it's alphabetical... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, yes you're right. I've thought about this myself, as I did think my irrational hatred of the dab down thing was just me being old and grouchy and shaking my fist at the proverbial cloud. Running jokes were much better in my day etc. But it's the sheer volume of it that gets on my nerves. It's on every other comment on every other thread. Feel like I'm drowning in dab. But hey, I can just skip past it. It's not going to drive me away or make me block anyone. But that's why I personally find it more irritating than other running jokes. Anyway, back to posters. Still getting over Manics and Big Moon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
