Do any of these headliners or subs actually put on a good visual show? Like I know it’s not all about that, but personally I feel the main stage is lacking some cool visuals sets like we had last year with 1975, TØP and even Posty at a push. 

That’s why this year I was for a couple of either BMTH, Slipknot, Gorillaz, Tame Impala etc. Feels like quite a bland main stage tbh. 

Stormzy was incredible at Glastonbury, definitely a visual show.

@Gerard the Fab You better bring your costume just in case there's an MCR secret set

Yeah I think Stormzy is the best we’re going to get. I’m not a rap fan at all but I think I’m most excited for his set.

Yeah, he does tend to attract a lot of the "I don't usually like that kind of music but..." crowd. Hopefully he will win people over, expect he will.

I guess similar to Posty last year. Wasn’t a fan on his at all but thought he smashed his set and now took a shine to him and enjoyed his new album.

Exactly, so you did like his music you just didn't know it because you had assumed you didn't, for some reason.

90 down, 140+ to go ......

[La fiesta]

Personally I would have preferred Prophets instead of the original RATM, surely they have gone down better too with the current clientele?  No Mariachi set advertised for The Bronx?  The Subways have asked to play on Twitter, would love them there. Really weak line up for me, such a shame after last year and this years landing on my birthday.

If all else fails on the next announcement, i'll either spend my time at the dance tent or the BBC Introducing stage!

They've been going for years with Wade from Alexisonfire. Wouldn't have put them near headline material tbh

Frank left about 2011 i think if not earlier, they got Wade in from Alexisonfire straight away. They've done 2 studio albums and an EP i think with him,  They're not very active much though.

I'm sure we'll find acts we like - wouldn't it be boring if we just stuck to what we know.  Already started listening to those on the line up that I don't know to see which ones I like.

It's surprised me big time, I think there might be something going on there. Surely there's more than meets the eye....

I've just had a quick listen to Tom Grennan, Dermot Kennedy and Sam Fender and they are the same thing. 

Dermot Kennedy is that grim he makes Coldplay look like ACDC mate. I dont know how he got that spot. His music is played here in ireland all the time its shocking.

I've got tickets to see Frank tomorrow in Manchester, gonna have a few afternoon pints around the venue so will keep an eye out for him, can't imagine it though? Massive balls up on festival republic side if it were to be a reunion.

never thought i’d see people missing the 2018 lineup
