2013 lineup

[gordong]

Just saw Disclosure at King Tuts in Glasgow, absolutely amazing - new album is sounding great, every track could be a single. Met Howard after the gig and asked him about Rockness, bad news - he said they aren't playing, the poster was just a mistake...

New Daft Punk that was aired on an SNL advert night...

[Gingo]

If Daft Punk end up doing any fests (next year I presume) I reckon Rockness will definitely be outpriced by TITP for them

[theampersanddevil]

Fatboy was awesome at the arches last night. Was also mightily surprised at tom staar as well. He dropped 7 nation army near the end of his set and set up the night for fatboy perfectly.

[sildante]

Fatboy Slim was soooooooooooo good.

We are in for a treat.

[goob125]

Shit...this thread is quiet?!

Checked out fatboy slim at the arches on YouTube,because I couldn't make it that night! Looks good though.overall a half decent line up as far as I'm concerned, not really fussed about Example or Plan B to be honest, but that's just how it goes. Last year was up my street and this year it'll be up someone else's street.

Simple fact is I choose Rockness over TITP anyday simply over the location,the people and the artists.TITP may have some pretty decent folk this year,and I was also a bit posses off hearing they had the afterburner too.that was one the main points of my arguments with mates/folk about how Rockness is better.

Anyway,regardless of the lineup, ive just lost all interest in TITP for the past few years.everywhere seems a hassle to walk too,the audience have changed in terms of age,which in turn brings different attitudes,folk starting fights etc etc.im nkt saying it doesn't happen at Rockness guys,I'm just giving my open and debatable opinion.its a much cleaner,friendlier festival.although I'm not ecstatic over the headliners this year,I'll still have a ball,go to a few tents and watch some undiscovered acts is what it's all about! Acts are only as big as the public make them!!

That aside,loo for a van which will most likely have 'europcar' along the side of it and come and have a beer and a fucking burger.christ,you can even chart you phone in my genny if you want! Rockness has something special about it,I've met folk year upon year where I've given fuel for generators and the same guys 2 years later seen us having bother with ours and happily walked along and just handed us theirs to use!

Fuck sake,I'm smashed folks.im wrapping this up now! Maybe see some of you there??!

[SilverLining]

cool.

[marky3]

the bold SilverLining causing riots with a one word post.

[SilverLining]

hahaha i was just joking, Although I did start the london riots with a one worder. Anyway, does anyone see the rumours for Reading & Leeds? More commericial acts but all put on a great live show set TBC: Magnetic Man, Hadouken, Major Lazer, Sub Focus. Seen them all before and all are great acts but would a bit more ticket sales.. Magnetic Man unlikely as we already have Skream & Benga though.

I've also noticed Rockness being advertised on a ridiculous amount of websites which im happy about although the crowd will get bigger and evolve if it saves the festival it'll keep me happy.

[burnsy07]

Is their another announcement and if so when? I'm just a nosey bastard eh

Yeah, so did I. Really disappointed with that. Especially how Skream has totally changed direction recently as well.

On other note, Friday is HUGE.

[Paul ™]

Announcement on Thursday apparently.

Playing the Saturday going by the latest line up poster, but not sure how that is going to work as Benga is also down for playing Parklife the same day.
