After that poor first announcement this is shaping up good. Jefferson Starship, Idlewild, The Waterboys, Nouvelle Vague, and Edwyn Collins are all excellent additions. Shaping up to be good.

Idlewild should be headlining thou, can't see how not. Maybe The Waterboys are playing either second or at one of the other stages?

I still haven't decided if I'm going yet. I am gonna wait and see who else is announced first. Idlewild are a fantastic addition but if they are not headlining then I might still not go. It will depend on who else they manage to pull out of the hat

What difference does it make if they are headlining or not, surely you go and see what is a fantastic band and see something else as the headliner or go back to your tent and prepare coctails for your fellow campers.

I dinna drink! It IS all about the music for me and I dinna fancy going back to ma tent at 9 o feckin clock wi nowt to do cos there's neybody I want to go and see. I'm ney payin 80squids to sit in a tent all night <_< I can't see how they (the bella peeps) can put SFG on as headliners, but not Idlewild. They are FAR more deserving of that status.

I am really chuffed with Idlewild being announced and I will go and see them. I am sure that I will find something else to do, I did last year when the magic numbers were on. I went and saw the needles (a local aiberdeen band) headlining the seedlings stage and then I jumped aboot outside the 'dukes box' and marvelled at the genius of putting wee mannies and instruments inside a box thingy and making it look like a jukebox :lol:

I am still a bit pissed off at the Bella organisers, so I am biding my time before getting a ticket.

    • Seems the addition of the Sun Stage area is interesting. Suspect this is the area where the Stage 4 used to be pre-2024. Looks as though they want to try create some space to keep people in amongst the arena post-headliners, rather than just crowds all descending back on the campsite entertainment at once. 
    • 2000 Trees - 3 Day Tickets on Concert for Carers to buy (pair £15) sure they will not have them for long, I cant check if they are still available as it now says I have already bought tickets.
    • times and technology has changed , a pyramid headliner is often about the show thats put on as much as the music like it or not and as much as many would like to you cant really blame an artist for trying to get the best out of the set both for the audience in the field and for the cameras also .... Beyonce was 15 years ago
