stumabe Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Looks like they are still set to play Hungart on Sunday?? I can't find anything to say they are not?? If they have been scrapped because of Minaj its a joke!! Shes probably worried they will pull a bigger crowd than her!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Looks like they are still set to play Hungart on Sunday?? I can't find anything to say they are not?? I'm suspecting that the 'illness' claim might be an easy excuse. I can't seem to find this anywhere online? It's very definitely in the press release that V's press office sent out yesterday with the Undercover stage's line-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart1000 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Nicki Minaj had Happy Mondays on before her at T. Now that's a mismatch. Never seen so many middle aged blokes running away from a stage quicker in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footix2 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I will not be happy if Frank Turner gets bumped into a Snow Patrol clash. Very late to shoehorn another act in though. Maybe they can shuffle and pit Pixie Lott up as a Minaj sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthonym93 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Hmmm, personally I would move DJ Fresh up there... Looks on far too early in tge day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie c Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 New iPhone app update is showing LMFAO as playing?! Hmmm i'm getting confused..Are they or aren't they? I've tweeted V Fest a number of times now and had nothing...Surely all they have to do is confirm or deny it's not hard is it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 it's hugely unlikely that they'd put out a wrong press release that included saying he's no longer playing. It's very likely that it can take a while for things to catch up so that an already-announced band is removed from the bits they've already published (or which has already gone to press [which might apply with the app too]). I've told you that the press release said they're no longer playing. I very much doubt that press release was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumabe Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Why have they still not confirmed or denied whether or not they are actually off the line up?? They (LMFAO) are still tweeting they are playing everywhere else so like you say Neil the "illness" excuse must have been the easy option but V must know people would check out for themselves. It's still on LMFAO's website under tours they are playing an still on all V info (website, app etc) I just wanna know either way for sure know! There will be plenty of people going that don't come on here that will think they are still playing so poor form from V! The only 2 options I can think is they are being proper w*nkers and waiting till next weekend before they say they are "ill" and it's too late to replace etc! (and it was a slight mistake they put it on the press release that early) Or they may still be negotiating to get them to play? Neil don't suppose you know anymore do you?

Anthonym93 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 I hope they are - it would be hard to get a replacement in now that is decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
always_dizzy Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Im getting confused by all of this! Why does RedFoo say he is performing, and V Festival dont remove him, yet Efestivals and NME say he has pulled out! :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brfcstar Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Thats because RedFoo is part of LMAFO and Frank Ocean is a different act. LMAFO havent pulled out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliebee_moosic Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Apparently in a V press release, it said LMFAO had pulled out early last week. Frank Ocean has pulled out the last few days. Nobody is getting them mixed up there have been reports of both of them pulling out! As I said, we'll find out this weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliebee_moosic Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Also, the updated app is out today and both LMFAO and Frank Ocean are both still on there...update V goddammit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliebee_moosic Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 I know that, that's why we're all so confused. A press release from V said they're not going to be there due to illness, but RedFoo is saying they are....poor communication from V's part!

Anthonym93 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 LMFAO aren't ill at all by the looks of things - must be to do with Nicki Minaj playing up as already stated, and potentially booted off by V to accommodate her multiple dressing rooms. The communications have been the poorest from any festival in memory, wouldn't surprise me to turn up and find they aren't there, and everyone is just bumped up/given longer sets.

mrtourette Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) Why would she have a problem with LMFAO? Have the crossed swords in the past? Edited August 13, 2012 by mrtourette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 V Festival have today confirmed to me that LMFAO will be appearing in their previous slot, and that only one member is ill, and that person will not be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
