devilman Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Anyone that thinks music is age based is a bit daft. Good music is good music. What has changed is the ability for crap performers who are all image and no talent to dupe punters into paying to watch them. That won't last for long or at least I hope it won't. Red Day I'll gladly have a pint with you, or indeed anyone on here. That's half the fun of festivals for me - meeting people. I'm just back from Frankfurt and Munich where I saw Skink Anansie and Seether. It was beyond ace, not least because of all the really friendly people we met, including Kas from SA and Mikkey Dee out of Motorhead. Rylan will be the big act announced tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gparsfan Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 The last two comments on the facebook pages are. Rhianna? Mumford and sons? T20 - are you kidding?! I didn't make myself a few hundred pounds poorer just before Christmas for crap like this, as has already been said - this used to be a rock festival. Disappointed already. Seing as T has never been a rock festival that comment is totally invalid. Got early bird tickets expecting big things...totally gutted so far. Where is the rock and indie???!!!!???? There have been 7 acts announced, 7. That's out of 200 odd? Plenty of time for Indie and "rock", then again I thought Jake Bugg was classified as Indie, meh. Fact is there are not many big Indy bands out there that would demand a headline spot, and I'm saying that as Indy being my favourite genre.

Deeps Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Fwiw I think it's a cracking announcement, Mumford and Sons? tremendous Friday headliner, the Arctic Monkeys done it a few years ago despite only having one album out at the time, Mumford and Sons have two, good Friday headliner.

gazza_20 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Told you so folks! Had a feeling about Rhianna. I've said it previously and I'll say it again, this site does not accurately reflect the mindset of 99% of people that go to T, everyone else I've talked to "gets it", then again I'm talking to 18-20 year olds who are exactly the people that T are aiming at. Boom, I agree with that. Fwiw I think it's a cracking announcement, Mumford and Sons? tremendous Friday headliner, the Arctic Monkeys done it a few years ago despite only having one album out at the time, Mumford and Sons have two, good Friday headliner. Rhianna? She sells albums and records like no one else, the day which she gets announced on will sell out easily. The Script are a pretty safe announcement, they had a really good crowd at the main stage a couple of years ago and will do so again following how well they're recent album done. Jake Bugg I'm really,really excited about though, I think he's got great talent and I'm really looking forward to seing him. Monsters and Men have got one song I know of so I'm not going to comment on them tbf.... All in all a really good announcement, my twitter feed was full of positive remarks which can only be a good thing. Thank fuck they never went for some sort of Green Day shite announcement.

harryomatic Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 I agree, I think it's good as well. Mumford are easily as big as Arctics were when they did it. Rihanna sells tickets like hot cakes and the 3rd we'll see. if the script are potential for mumford sub, is plan b potential for rihanna sub?

blue6field Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Its a simple case that if you have bought/planning to buy a ticket you will try and justify anyhow, if you dont plan in buying a ticket you will slag it of. Happens all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppetmark Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Well the good news about this announcement is that a lot of my friends want to go but now i don't want to >.< Damn the festival for trying to cater for my age group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Day Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Given that you use words like hoora and seem to be going to events the Ironworks are hosting we've probably had pints pretty close together in the past! I'm at rush again too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
