Badger a Band 09 - V Fest

[Cassius It's Over]

Ok so T forums have got one, Leeds fest forums have got one...so why shouldn't V have one! A thread about badgering bands on myspace, emailing them basically asking if they are playing V or not?!

If anyone has any replies, please post!

Its bout time Vfest got one of these threads

Ive just sent off loadsa messages and will post as soon as i hear anything

The more people that message a band the more likely they are to cave...so get on it people lol

[Cassius It's Over]

Yes indeed! Who have you messaged?

[Sonofjackass]

So far...

Editors

Justice

Doves

Jack Penate

Foals

Daft Punk

Dan Le Sac VS Scroobius Pip

just thinking of who else to send out to...

[Cassius It's Over]

Nice! Over myspace?

[Sonofjackass]

Over myspace and whatever email address of theirs i can find

Ive also now sent to Bombay bicycle club, black kids, css and does it offend you yeah?

Why? well this years V is very similar to last years reading/leeds so im just looking at the lineup from last year and seeing what are the more chart topping acts, then sending a message their way

genius i think lol

Took the words right out of my mouth!

Nice idea, keep us posted if you here anything!

Reply from the doves

" Thanks for taking an interest. However, unfortunately the Doves can't play at the V festival due to personal reasons of one of the band members"

Owell eh?

Looks like the wiki lineup has another tick in the Mmmmmmmm bullshit column. Oh well.

Still, at least you got a reply. Shame though, they were great on Jools Holland

[Cassius It's Over]

Yeah someone else mentioned they had a similar reply, one of the band members is getting married on that weekend apparently
