[Cornflake!]

The Darkness

Plain White T's

Funeral For A Friend

Framing Hanely

Kerlavatik (or however it's spelt)

Announced tonight by Dan P Carter on the Radio 1 Rock Show

very discrete announcement!

[luckysalt]

Great announcement IMO!

[kev1664]

Bit gutted that SOAD and FFAF clash though. A good annoucement though.

[pryce]

wow Funeral for a friend have fallen abit in size

you would have though clashing Danzig with System and clashing Funeral with def leppard would have made more sence

but very good announcement

i am warming to the thought of the Darkness to be honest, thought id hate it but chillin with a beer singalong might be quite fun

and Klavertec (or how ever you spell it) are brilliant

[ampersand]

annother rotten announcement for me. darkness i already knew about and the rest i don't care. good stuff!

[spwan-of-the-devil]

The Darkness - Being dragged to see but again warming to it and tbh the first album is a gulity pleasure of mine!

Plain White Ts - Good singalong to Hey there Delilah sat back with a beer at the back!

Kvelertak - Good annoucement!

3 out of 5 not bad for me

[Lithium05]

The only band i want to see in this announcement clash with one of the bands I already know I'll be watching. If my ticket wasn't free I doubt I'd be going.

[pearljam86]

I won't be seeing The Darkness or FFAF as they clash. Won't be seeing Plain White T's and never listened to Framing Hanely or Kerlavatik, I'll give them a listen though and may see them if I like.

Probabaly the worst announcement so far for me, but there are plenty of bands I want to see already, can't expect to be pleased all the time.

[cornucopia]

Right, am i missing something but the plain white t's? i just don't get that at all.

[pryce]

plain white T's will obviously play under frank turner

when i say obviously i mean im guessing

[the_mars_volta]

Plain White Ts - Good singalong to Hey there Delilah sat back with a beer at the back!

[luckysalt]

I said great announcement before i saw where they were. FFAF and SOAD clash is f**king plain dumb. FFAF should be under down on main stage sat imo. And plain white Ts would work better under madina lake on main on sunday, instead theyre both in the tents and some w*nk filler will be added to main no doubt. I liked the flow of the fest but i think hes got the positions wrong with this announcement

[luckysalt]

Hyro Da Hero was announced too by the way and it appears by a slip of the tongue The Blackout are also playing.

[Paul ™]

annother rotten announcement for me. darkness i already knew about and the rest i don't care. good stuff!

[ampersand]

Have you bought your Rockness ticket yet?

[luckysalt]

Just had a listen of Hyro Da Hero, good stuff but songs that I heard were pretty slow, hope theres some faster paced tracks, if no clashes I'll defo check him out

[t8yman]

that is the worst slot f4af could have got, I'd love to see them again, and a tent would be nice, but f**k me thats a shit clash. next to no one will see them.

[luckysalt]

I agree, but I think whoever got that slot, next to no-one would have seen them. Up against SOAD and AC is a tough tough break.

So they should have stuck some w*nk in there, and given FFAF a main stage slot! Oh well, too late now.

Or just closed the stage, they did for AC/DC last year after all, and that was with an increased capcity of 25k+

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Apparently it was peoples inability to read because it just mentioned that Hyro da Hero was on their new single not that they were playing.

[luckysalt]

Its not that, Andy said something on twitter, he could have been taking the piss tho, but said something like, they havent been announced yet, naughty! Or similar. Im not fussed either way

[spwan-of-the-devil]

Am I the only one who thinks that FFAF class as 'some w*nk'?

[Matticus]

Funeral For A Friend's new album is pretty good actually. Alot like the older stuff. Gone back to their roots it seems. Drummer screaming again

[pryce]

there is actually a lot of bands i would check out

but then i just remembered the bitch of a walk between arena and the campsite

and its not worth it if there is one early band you would check out but nothing for 2-3 hours

so unless there is a cluster of bands id check out playing around the same time! there is going to be alot of campsite drinking

anyway last year we had Porcupine Tree playing 4th down on the 2nd stage! so hopefully some biggish obscure bands will stil be announced
