I did work experience at HMV as well.

Was the closest the school could find for me when I put 'music' as my main interest... :blink:

It was alright, and getting a shitload of vouchers at the end of it was cool...but I'd have rather worked in a muscial instrument store and just played bass all day..! :P

that would be worth seeing coldplay headlining though, he trys to beat eddie vedder, jumps from a huge height, forgetting the big gap between him and the audience (who are elsewhere) and falls to a large painful death when his piano then falls on him... it would be worth the music in my opinion

you seem to get a stupidly hard time on these boards olivavu, next year, once we've stopped the riots this year, we can do a help stop cruelty to olivavu, show hte bullies! and i am not defending him for some reason such as blah blah blah im dating him (not yet anyway) (im a guy, thats not to be taken seriously) but because everything he says, he has a point behind it, which most people dont.

As usual im only checking the forum after about 5 pages of talk have been undertakend but cest la vie. Just one point before i go to bed

It seems that people who are really passionate about a band are given a hard time. I remember at one point I got flamed a few times because, simple as, I bum the Smashing Pumpkins out.

hi read a few pages back that some of the youth at the festival this year wont know who PJ are.

sad;y i have to agree with this point, im 18 and i love pearl jam, although ive only gotten into them this last year i have many of their albums. sadly a few of my friends hadnt heard of them so i tried to educate them and sadly it didnt work and they will be seieng maximo park instead.

so this year once again i shall be seeing a legendary headliner on my own over a shitty indie band. (pixies over kasabian).

i dont know why PJ arent so popular or well known even as audioslave, they're on channel 4, jules holland, itunes and im sure many more things people watch. but oh well its their loss. rant type thing over.

    • No worries, it's a perfectly fair question to ask. I would expect people to be talking at the back & near the bars & that is where I would want them to be talking. If your group are enjoying yourselves & the music & briefly chatting to say how much you are loving a certain song etc, you would be an ideal group to stand behind.   My issue is with people having full blown conversations (usually unrelated what is on the stage) whilst being surrounded by people who are trying to listen to the music. This was happening in the middle and towards the front of all stages, & so you have limited options to move around & you may have spent 20 minutes waiting for the band trying to get the closest position that you can. If there's a group of 8 people, there may be 2 or 3 that like the band & the rest will start talking if the music isn't their thing. This may be the norm now for festivals, and if it is, that's ok & I will focus on a band's own gigs & UK based new music festivals.    I'm also not including consequences of my own decision making. I saw Geese on Wednesday so went to Occident after Men I Trust finished so it was understandable there would be chatting that far back. Similarly, getting to The XX after Olivia Rodrigo along with most of the site, I knew my chance of a good spot & a chat-free zone had gone so that was completely reasonable.   PS. I went to Bilbao BBK in 2023 & 2025 & enjoyed it. For Pulp & Kylie in 2025, I got a position early & was surrounded by a respectful & fun crowd for both. The UK non-headlining bands tend to go on the undercover 3rd stage, & most people like to congregate outside so you can usually get close to the front of that stage.
