It won't happen, but The The would be an ace Other Stage opener

Looks like they've jumped the gun saying sold out for Lana - plenty available for Cardiff still

Looks like the MK Bowl event in June mentioned previous could include Kraftwerk, Johnny Marr, The Cult, Billy Idol, The The, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Happy Mondays, The Damned, Public Image Ltd, The Psychedelic Furs.

 

Incredible lineup if true.

 

A hastily deleted NME article suggested this. Someone is probably getting bollocked for breaching Monday's embargo as we speak.

 

Nice of them to include Kraftwerk so you have a nice gap to go for food.

Ha! I've done the same. Now just waiting to see how much the tickets will end up being before fully committing 🙂

Don't worry, it'll be like one of those day festivals in America where everyone gets twelve minutes each

sure dude. The main stage had a physically rotating stage. Im sure thats a foreign concept to ya'll cause you cant imagine being that efficient. Schedule for Cruel World this year. Its not that bad, but you keep convincing yourself otherwise. Oh yeah, you dont get Club Doom. Unless its popping up later. ( side stage goth club )

Nothing longer than an hour, even for your headliner, is absolutely criminal.

Do you talk like this in real life? If so I’m guessing you get punched a lot. You could just be helpful instead of coming across like a right knob all the time.

In fairness I like the idea of revolving stages. I saw Arctic Monkeys use it at Finsbury Park in 2014 where they had the stage spin around to reveal them during the start of the opening song. Clearly it's not yet taken off outside of things like this.

 

Even so, you can like the idea of a revolving stage but think these acts really don't get all that much stage time and you're only really getting bite-size performances.

The UK doesn't do these kinda AEG mega stacked 200$+ day fests which is where spinning stages seem to mostly be used.

 

That's the primary reason why we don't have them i reckon

I guess we'll see if this is an attempt to introduce the concept here.
