Predict the final TBAs

I know it's Rick and Blossoms, and he's unlikely to wanna release Never Gonna Give You Up on everyone because it'd potentially reduce his crowd the next day, but what about Blossoms. Does anyone think they'll sneak a couple of their own songs in there? Seems like a missed trick if they didn't put at least a couple in there.

Friday Woodsies - Rick Astley & Blossoms (seems nailed on)

Saturday Woodsies - Hozier (not so confident in that one but best guess we have so far)

Saturday Park - The Pretenders (people have apparently seen the Park lineup with them included so seems nailed on)

Prentenders! Great. Not as good as seeing Pulp but certainly a worthy substitute

Rick Astley and Blossoms doing The Smiths as best as they can... apparently. That's the info threw here by someone and we all seem to believe it. Can DMAs fit on a TBA on BBC stage?

I think those of us who like DMA's  can hugely overestimate their popularity. Nobody apart from their cult following knows any of their songs - they'd be a very strange choice of TBA and I say that as someone who was disappointed they aren't on the lineup! Early afternoon Woodsies is the best they'd get if they played.

Not when Sports Team were in the same slot last year. DMAs far far bigger.

Friday TBA clashes with Fred Again.. (two dots) so will be dead anyway. Guess you can always wait until Sat night @ The Temple for Fred..

 

I'm sure there's a lot of people on site (me included) that can't stand Fred Again, so can see it picking up a lot of people avoiding that like the plague.

I know some Sports Team songs.  Hadn't even heard of the DMAs until these rumours started.

DMA's considerably bigger both in terms of ticket sales for tours and Spotify streams. Completely incomparable.

To be honest - they're not absolutely comparable.  But they're definitely in the same ball park.  My point is, you can choose whatever metric you like to make your case, but it doesn't prove anything.

This is true, but when multiple metrics show the same thing, it certainly can prove a point.

    • It can take around 30-45 mins to walk from the arena back to the transport hub with the crowds, depending on density. Allow even longer in poor conditions. I don't think you'd need to leave Linkin Park early though, you have at least an hour and 20 minutes to walk to transportation. I certainly wouldn't leave early in your shoes, knowing I can just walk to the airport if needs be (2 mile walk and another 30 - 45 min walk depending on your walking speed and conditions.) Maybe just don't linger too long for the toilet / food after Linkin Park have finished.  It will definitely make sense and all just fall into place on the night, don't worry too much and have a great time. The very worst that can happen is a little extra walking to the Airport Skylink bus stop, as those Skylink busses are 100% 24 hour. 🙂  GFS, ICON and ECMWF are ALL in agreement on the latest runs.... After a mildly moist Weds and Thurs, high Pressure building from Friday... Lets just hope they continue to agree... ☀️☀️☀️
