Isle of Wight 2020

[galbani]

I've been told.

We're going.

Weekend experience she said.

Hey ho.

[charlierc]

I'm honestly puzzled how quickly this has scaled back its ambitions.

Well I like it. 

me too, mostly. 

I've been to the last 3. I do enjoy it. But am fairly lucky in that I get to stay at a friend's in Cowes. 

Even in the short time I've been going I have seen an increase in the number of locals who seem to want to fight each other. A shame - but always stopped by security very quickly (in reality I've only seen this happen twice).

tickets bought this morning.

Maybe garbage instead?

[galbani]

The jagged little red pill... I want to see how deep this rabbit hole goes.

 

[Ikindalikemusiclikealot]

I see complaints but I just got a Saturday and Sunday ticket cos Supergrass, Snow Patrol and Chemical Brothers. That'll do me.

[Ikindalikemusiclikealot]

surely a full weekend ticket is like £10 more than two day tickets?

End of Feb if what John Giddings recently said in an interview is true

[AMBEV]

Ranked up the advertising on absolute radio more than any year before.  Act of desperation?

Most probs. The line up is very poor compared to previous years. Hardly any rock as well? Like we had Biffy last year. Who we got this yeah 😕

[maelzoid]

As the other festivals (and those overseas) announce their line-ups, Isle of Wight looks weaker and weaker.

This year, Boardmasters has a line-up that IOW is envying.

I guess Boardmasters has got bigger

[gfa]

Wow this forum has really died - no talk of the announcement at all

Can't lie the names are the best but there are a lot of ones i'd definitely watch - pretty filled out days for me

[galbani]

Agree. It's a quite underwhelming lineup. We're still going, and there's a few that we'll enjoy.

A couple of clashes...  Mrs Galbani will want to watch / listen to DD on the Sunday. I'm now quite annoyed that they're clashing with Razorlight in the tent, who will put on a great show. Not that I like DD but it's a pain when you split up, particularly for the last gig... 

I'm going to have to tempt her away....

Some of the new announcements are quite tempting.
