Fest Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Contender for worst lineup ever? Jesus! That is just excruciatingly bad. Sorry for the negative post, not really my style. But I just have to know that I'm not the only one to think this. Praying for something good on the Festival Republic stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pink_triangle Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 As bad as the pendulum day is, I think the klaxons is even worse. The LCD soundsystem day in my opinion is the best but in any other year would look poor. Also disappointed with the headliners, feel it is really lacking a headliner with a big catalogue as we have seen in recent years such as ash, manics, lostprophets super furries etc who can come and do afestival friednly greatest hit set.

Role Model Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 i won't be going anywhere near it at all that day, makes me shudder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olly!olly!olly! Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Frank Turner's all I'm going to see on that stage on pendulum day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow_Fellow Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 In my opinion it's brilliant. I mean, Rolo Tomassi, Serj Tankian, Enter Shikari and Pendulum are all pretty up there in my eyes of who I want to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy_Bear Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 I would have to disagree. Its probably the best day on the poster as far as I'm concerned. Pendulum, Enter Shikari, Crystal Castles, Kids In Glass Houses, Hadouken! & 30H!3 would all be fairly high up my list of bands I'd want to see. Although I appreciate they aren't the tradtional "reading/leeds" bands of old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjp_121 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 I'm visiting the main stage for three... possibly 4 things. Gaslight Anthem Modest Mouse Libertines possible Arcade Fire Other than that... NME stage day all day... It is awesome for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtourette Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 It's pretty bad, I'll see Band Of Skulls unless they clash with the Futureheads. Otherwise nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinthecasbah Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Yeah pretty weak day on the NME, only really Frank Turner I'm paticularly keen on seeing. Though what I've heard from Crystal Castles new album sounds pretty good, so I might try and get into them, especially if they clash with Dizzee Rascal, who I have no interest in seeing. Pretty poor NME lineup all in all, though last year wasn't great either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j...rox Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Fortunately the main is strong the NME is one of the worst i've seen although suppose it depends what you like. Can't beat any of the acts on the main that day. Have liked or still like all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ska_4_life Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 I never really visit the NME tent. Normally a lockup/dance/main kinda guy. Though untill the lockup gets good on saturday I shall probally watch alll the bands untill RX Bandits play I really gotten into Band of Skulls recently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ap3311 Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 I'm slightly disappointed by the NME this year but in some ways that's not a bad thing as the main stage is so good, especially on Friday and Sunday. On Saturday I'll be watching Pendulum, Serj, Rolo Tomassi and maybe Band of Skulls and 3OH!3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iammonky Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 I was considering starting a topic saying how good the pendulum NME day was. Besides the Get up Kids and Arcade Fire, I probably wont be leaving that stage all day. And its not for a lack of options, I think both the main and Lock-up stage are pretty solid that day too. I just think for a festival, the bands playing the NME, despite maybe not to everyones taste, are quite diverse, will put on a great show and really get the crowd going.
