Here is my schedule from the App. Don't think I will have time for a beer on Friday !! Friday The Enemy Dead Pony Circa Waves Dead Letter Sea Girls The Mary Wallopers DMA's The K's Bloc Party Saturday Franz Von EPB Red Rum Club McFly High School Blossoms Courteeners Sunday The Zutons Courting Rev Wunderhorse Anyone but Kaiser Chiefs !!!!!! Paul Heaton We're off to see Ella Henderson instead of Kaisers. My wife likes her , we went to see Becky Hill in the tent last year, and the dance bangers were a nice change of pace from the bands we'd seen all weekend.

neato Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) Absolutely gutted, but we can’t make it this year. We bought early birds after last year. If anyone wants (or knows someone who does) 2x Weekend VIP tickets @ FV (£150 each) Also have a double in the Premier Inn Angel Street. That’s flexible so we can cancel - but if it’s of use, let me know. Think it was about £260 for the weekend.

Hirstys 12th Pint Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 Weather forecast is looking a bit pants for next weekend. Usually buzzing for Tramlines but can't get excited about it this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, as we've just been reminded at work hospital consultants are also on strike through to Saturday morning, so emergency admissions are likely to to be challenging.

swede Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 Sugababes moved to main stage on Sunday. Sensible move as they've been pulling some massive crowds at the festivals they've played. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adds Sugarbabes and Professor Green to my list when previously they clashed with Rev and Paul Heaton. Allows me to watch someone other than the god awful Kaiser Chuffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Sunday was poor but with the changes got virtual none stop music. Zutons - Bilk - Sugarbabes - Courting - Rev - Wunderhorse - Prof Green - Paul Heaton In fact this year think I will end up watching more acts than ever before.

Agree, Bloc Party all the way. I've seen Ashcroft twice (solo and with The Verve, Glasto headliner) and neither was memorable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a run that'll get me up to Hillsborough Park in the rain and paying £6.50 a pint. Doing an Oppenheimer/Barbie double bill instead!

I'm being dragged to Ashcroft by the missus, and not too pleased about it. Bloc Party were excellent when I saw them support Paramore earlier this year.

Doing an Oppenheimer/Barbie double bill instead! Im 41 now and I've pretty much seen everyone I want to see. As I've got older and especially after covid/lockdowns I'm just happy to see live music. My days of being too fussy about who I see as long as I see a few bands I really like across a festival weekend are long gone. Plus im on a bit of a mission now to see people I've never seen before, as some can be pleasently surprising. Saw Kelis and Becky Hill last year, I'd def have gone to see Kelis as Im a fan and she was brilliant, but Becky Hill was the wifes choice over Madness and she was really good fun.

I feel similar especially after the covid hiatus. Support live music, keep an open mind, have a good time. You'll be rewarded many times over, and get a few howlers, but that's life isn't it (and football, so I've heard, but can't vouch for it personally).

Im not particularly a fan of Blossoms or Kaisers but I know enough songs to have a good time at both this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
