Sub-Headliners


Guest slashbud

Recommended Posts

I'm beginning to get the feeling that MCR, Arcade Fire and Blink 182 will all be sub-headliners as all three are clearly not major headlining material. Why would efestivals choose to reveal headliners ahead of schedule? It just defeats the purpose of having the whole lineup revealed a month later. I'm just going to keep my hopes up that there will be a few surprises in store including top quality headliners!

Anyone agree?

efestivals has no connection with FR whatsoever so when they get the headliners early they will of course try to get the information out. This will no doubt increase their traffic on the page, which probably means they can charge more for ads and the website is in a much better financial position to continue.

And ffs can everyone stop with the denial Arcade Fire ad Blink 182 are definitly headlining and it's pretty certain that MCR are!!!!!!!

If they were to lie, than when future rumours were to come from efestivals than people aren't going to visit and their reputation will suffer from not only any new visitors but from members already. They will only gain traffic in the short term. I.e when I hear about a rumour from virtual festivals, I won't go to the site because I have little confidence in it and I'm sure others don't.

When these bands turn out to be true I'm sure that you and others will stick about and continue to visit the site for other rumours involving this years line up and probably following years. They've got it right in the past and I'm sure they'll continue to do so. I.e their visiting numbers increase in the long term.

That's a fair enough interpretation of the situation I suppose. Maybe i'm just being a bit too optimistic about having bigger headliners. Then again, I still believe at least one of the three won't headline. One can only dream!

:P
