Review Of The Lineup Up To Date

[Pothuthic]

Tbh me and Boris should be besties with all the similarities

[Boris The Spider]

TOTES.

[daniel.k]

Well I think the line up if fairly strong for my tastes, and it has acts for most peoples tastes. I think the Beyonce day is stronger for me, as I could see an act every slot all day, maybe apart from the very first slot. I think there will be a few names to be announced later as two stages arent full on KoL day. The addition of Steve Angello I think was a great move, it gives the dance acts someone to see instead of Beyonce and Beady Eye.

The Futures stage on both days is quite good, with Lucy Spraggen, John Newman, Sam Smith and maybe A*M*E for a dance would be good if theres no one else on. Misha B I think shoudlnt be on the futures stage as I saw her last year and she is already out there abit so maybe she should be in the Arena early on.

Beyonces performance will be the talking point of the whole weekend, and I think most people will be there at some point. Jessie J and The Script are good enough to be third and second and I will be seeing them. I hope The Scripts performance is better than at IOW as I thought they were maybe missing something.

As for clashes go, I think the main ones for me are TDCC and Of Monsters and Men, and Labrinth and Fun clashing with Jessie J. I think most people will have some clashes but all in all it hasnt worked out too bad, it could have been alot worse. I think I will be seeing about 15 acts in total, maybe a few more if there is time or I see half of one act and half of another.

The line up could be stronger, but off the top of my head I cant think who could replace who to make it better. Maybe having someone to replace Little Mix and James Arthur...AND 5IVE...would make the line up stronger

[Boris The Spider]

You leave 5ive out of this!! As for opening acts on Bey day you've got Frarellis or Pigeons??

[Pothuthic]

If Fun and Jessie do majorly clash then it means I'll probably see Fun. and will have go go to Sundown the weekend after

[Boris The Spider]

Well if more of your girlfriend's mates are going then you can leave them to Beyonce.

[daniel.k]

Yeah but I want to take someone to Steve with me just incase I get lost going back to the tent or whatever or trying to find the meeting point. I dont think I will get to see steve, but I dont really know what stuff he would do. Has anyone heard of his recent sets, what does he play? Is it mainly SHM stuff or does he play stuff they didnt do. Obviously there will be his new song with the interactive video

I kind of wish he subbed DJ Fresh or even Calvin Harris and Rita Ora headlined the Arena so I could see him without much debate. From videos I have seen online he remixes stuff one set but plays SHM stuff another set. I think I will look on setlist fm after he has done creamfields or Electric Daisy Carnival or whatever he is doing, see if they are the same as if they are then chances are he would keep the same set

[daniel.k]

if you feel like a dance go if you don't stay for bey. just base it on your mood on the day

[Pothuthic]

Things change easily, like I was gonna go from Rita Ora to Olly Murs, but I felt like a bit of comedy as Sean was on, and I was dead on seeing Madness until Conor Maynard clashed (ended up seeing the madness and Olly duet though)

I was gonna see Jack Beats instead of going straight to main stage, purely so I could be at the front as no one really knows who he is, but I got front for Cover Drive so instead I saw Rodrigo Y Gabriela.

No plans will ever stay concrete at a festival

[daniel.k]

I think in my ideal line up there are only a few times I will have to choose between two acts, mainly its whether I see Maverick Sabre and Of Monsters and Men or Netsky and Jessie Ware, or maybe I wont see any of them and I will get dragged to see James Arthur and Paloma Faith

[Boris The Spider]

Paloma Faith

[daniel.k]

Unlucky.

[Pothuthic]

You sound like your going with my boyfriend and his friends with the Paloma love

[daniel.k]

Paloma has just come on tele on my recording of IOW fest, and at the moment I would rather stand next to the toliets for an hour than see Paloma

[jonodillieono]

I think it's a pretty abysmal line up, the only acts I would actually pay money to see on it are Maximo Park, Basement Jaxx and Kendrick Lamar

[daniel.k]

What fest has a good line up in your opinion?

[jonodillieono]

UK wise R+L and T in the Park (other than the shockingly bad headliners) are my favourites.

Europe wise probably Rock Werchter

[daniel.k]

Im guessing its the acts that are at R&L that are at T as well that make it good for you. Are you going to any fests?
