The line up always has something for my taste, so I’m keeping the faith ✌️ Genuinely my favourite festival, just a bugger being the other side of 🇬🇧 bloc party played the silent alarm album in full backwards in 2019 and then took a year out. was a fantastic set.was on castle stage and could be a castle headliner again or special guest opening.

And the libs played the year before and we’re back this year so no reason for them not to be there.

Mr Carbohydrate Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 On selling buying early bird tickets pre line up announcement to the missus, I went back through the archives to show how every line up has been great. Ray Davies played 2015 😱 seeing Ray/Dave or both would be unbelievable!! Failing that a Kinks tribute please 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack01825 Posted December 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Sometimes i think tribute bands headlining is not such a bad thing ! As ling as they are very very similar to the real things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 That is really poor standon, Bloc Party in the early slot would be pretty cool though at Viccy. I'd love Human League but with them at IOW can't see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckysalt Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Doesn't look like we are getting an announcement tomorrow then with the competition closing. Or J would have surely caught wind of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean... it could be his LAST last show... but unlikely. Equally, I don't think we'll get an announcement today. The festival news cycle is a touch... busy.

Mr Carbohydrate Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 Early bird ticket price finishes tonight. In my mind this price is for the hardy loyal souls who don’t need a line up to buy a ticket 😁 So I reckon more likely to get something next Friday to drive Xmas ticket sales, would be mad not to announce something pre Xmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Smith Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 I saw Bicep last night for the 1st time.I’ve gotta say I thought it was incredible with the Chems doing IOW if a dance act was required Bicep of Fatboy Slim would fit the bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubblepopelectric Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 I think he will be fab! Happy with his booking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 You know, I don't mind him. But I was expecting more. Can't say I've listened to too much of his stuff outside his singles if I'm honest, he hasn't had a hit in forever either so I guess he's the big old school act for next year and I also assume he would only headline Common Stage and probably charges headliner money too. We all knew sooner or later he would end up at Victorious, for me if he was a sub I'd be well chuffed but headliner, I can't help but feel underwhelmed. A hour set blasting the hits before someone else great. But headline I don't think I'd want to watch near 2 hours of him. Imagine if he's just a early special guest now 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing he’s the Friday older act… I guess. Happy myself as never seen him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs ain't happy, she was already on the fence about next year and she's just said she don't fancy it unless they pull something out the bag, we hotel see and it's a lot when u think about it these days and she is saying would rather put money to going abroad. We will see what gets announced next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed they announce 10 or so next week and we all get something we like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
