to be honest i'm happy with all but baby queen

Her live shows are absolutely superb. Incredible stage presence and charisma. She just gets it. Going to be an absolute megastar. Mark my words. 

[Rotinajer]

Do these guys have any other band phone numbers in their contact list? 
 

didn’t touch community last year because I was bored of seeing the same bands from Reading. Definitely won’t be touching this one either - unless free tickets come up!

GA- £57.70 (incl. fees)

Community Presents: The same lineup as last year but more expensive, with only one stage, later opening and deep in South London

Plus it’s on a week day. No one is booking the day off work for this.

This does make  me think of Black Adder when Baldrick is asked to get a horse.

Blackadder:
Well go out into the street and hire me a horse.

Baldrick:
Hire you a horse? For ninepence? On Jewish New Year in the rain? A bare fortnight after the dreaded horse plague of Old London Town? With the blacksmith's strike in its 15th week and the Dorset Horse Fetishist's Fair tomorrow?

Get me a ticket for Community

A ticket for Community? For the same price as last tear? On a workday. Same headliner, but less bands that will play everywhere and only one stage on a  work day in one the most congested and competitive month's for outdoor gigs. The same month that indie legends Pulp & Blur are playing. In the bad lands of South London with poor transport links and no accomadation nearby. In a cost of living crisis with numerous train and bus strikes.

We have a cunning plan, add Baby Queen

To be fair, I like the lineup but dont  rate the choice of day or venue. I done some looking in to parking and  local hotels last and did not find much and so binned off the idea going to gigs there unless its something really special.

Tickets booked 🥳 

Making up a bit for Dayglow's canceled tour announcement today at least.

They had a very cunning plan indeed. Almost as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University, but has moved on and is now working for the UN at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning

It's like when Twitter gives you Tweets that are so perfectly contradictory following one another in your home thread.

Doesn't seem to be a seperate thread for the CP events this year, so dumping this here

 

We’re thrilled to announce @RagNBoneMan, @official_ellahenderson, @billiemarten and @david.kushner will be joining @thelumineers for their biggest ever UK show this July at Crystal Palace Park! 🌟🌟

 

 

 

[NorthernSoul52]

The Lumineers on the same weekend as Bruce Springsteen in London.

Denim patch sales through the roof.

[DomDom1984]

Rag N Bone Man was one of the most excruciating festival sets I've ever had the misfortune of standing through.

[NorthernSoul52]

I can't imagine for the neutral he is necessarily a showstopper.

[DomDom1984]

No, he's not the showstopper, the icon, the MAIN EVENT

Is he the Heartbreak Kid?

[DomDom1984]

Might fit the name better in this day and age tbh

[NorthernSoul52]

May have missed the formula on this but we reckon TDCC will play uninterrupted?

[WhoOdyssey]

Perhaps TDCC will perform Alex's new song about Hunter Biden's laptop...

As in they won't have an act playing on the second stage opposite them.

That wouldn't interrupt them anyway

But yes generally thats how it goes with community / most london park festivals that focus on a single headliner.

will be interesting to see whether there are second/third stages
