kookye Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 But not the year before, or the year before that. Or in fact any of the first 8 V's I went to. It's because the lineup's have become boring and predictable. We've known for ages that it was going to be Oasis and The Killers, I just hoped to there'd be a few suprises or hidden gems. I'm chuffed that Fatboy Slim's playing but that's about it. I'll go anyway, cos it's a chance to get happy in a field with a load of mates, but like a lot of V goers, I go inspite of the lineup now, not because of it... That said, if they add The Cribs / The Manics / De la Soul / Flamin Lips / I might cheer the feck up... I take it your chuffed with Razorlight, Snow Patrol, Lilly Allen etc?

kookye Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 +1 totally underwhelmed by this announcement...we just needed a QOTSA, PJ Harvey, Hives, Subways or YYY's to make it look a bit more cutting edge...it's just a little bit too 4Music!

theramm Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Sent the announcement to some lads at work who said they were interested in going. They both said that it looks like the Brit awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indie-rocknroll Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 The Specials were a surprise for me, and I never thought Biffy would play or Pendulum The most surprising thing for me was the announcement of the same bands only after them playing last year or the year before, lilly Allen, Ting Ting, Killers etc...

minesapint Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hmmm I'm kind of underwhelmed. There are a couple of good things going on in there, just a shame that (as indie has just said) there are a load of acts that are reappearing again, after only a year or two away. Saying that, I just like being in a field with mud, camping, mates and beer, the music is a bonus Fat boy, Biffy, streets and MGMT will be very good. The rest I'm not that bothered about, I will just go with the flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indieman88 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 I agree with 'minesapint' Im just gonna have to get off my tiny little face all weeknd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kookye Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Both bands have sold out to the mainstream = they end up playing at V! I would never go and see Biffy again after the way they treated fans at R & L Festival last year with thier choice of set list, only playing one track from their 1st 3 albums whilst playing 8/9 tracks from Puzzle, from Cult band to sell outs As for Pendulum, they are massive now and going off last years crowd at Leeds, every single chav at V will be going mental to slam, it will be very messy indeed!

Mr. Writer Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 really piss poor line up compared with last year. Oh and can I be the first to ask. who the f**k is Taylor Swift? and what has he or she done to deserve a place on the main stage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kookye Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 She is Americans biggest selling female artist, number one albums, number one songs etc... Yeah she is shit but would not have played anywehere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brfcstar Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 my view on Taylor Swift is: If she's the biggest selling US artist, let her play mainstage at US festivals. Until she has proven herself over here she shouldn't have that spot. That should go to an establish older band which will get everyone in the mood for the upcoming day.
