Bearded Theory 2020

[rawaudioinput]

Been keeping my eye on this festival for a little while; is there any advice or particular pointers you'd give to someone attending for the first time?

Any food stalls you'd recommend?

Got my fingers crossed for Manics and Primals; although I'm not sure if that's asking for too much

Saw that but no early bird, so the money I'll save I will use some of that the renew my gold membership when it expires.

The Super Early Bird where home in s second, got the other ones though so saved £30 on 2 tickets. 

Bit disconcerting how quick and easy it went through.

It was all far too easy.

If only a certain other festival was that fast and easy.

Very pleased to have picked up an early bird ticket, really looking forward to heading to this festival for the first time.

Managed to get super early birds, far too easy. But excellent practice for Glastonbury.

Interesting to see they've ditched See Tickets in favour of Eventbrite after last year's shenanigans. 

Probably for the best, as my mate got caught in that. Got charged twice.

Also, is it me or are booking fees double last year now though? Seems a bit rum. Pretty sure it was less than a fiver last year. Nobody seems to be complaining though, so... ?‍♂️

nope, they don't do them as far as I'm aware.

And I can't afford to spend my time promoting festivals for no return, which means far less publicity for bearded here this year, sadly.

You will love it Mike. It’s a wonderful little festival and always has a cracking line up. Small enough to get around with ease and everyone is lovely! 

I managed to get early bird thanx to a mate! The beauty of this festival is the early line up so you can discover new bands.

a good move mate.

The only festival I'd buy a ticket for now before a band is announced. They have just got everything right. Its a lovely festival.

Got early birds. This will be our third year. Loved the last 2 so already excited for it. Great set-up, good camping and showers, friendly faces and quality bars. Woodland stage is a cracking little spot too.

Hurrah for Gnomicide. Well done old bean

I see Phil Campbell and The Bastard Sons are playing a festival in Lincolnshire that weekend  and they would be a Beardy fit.

[bucko]

Some line up news coming on the 25th including a pallet headliner and 2 for the woodlands.

 

[tjamest]

Looks like they were going for the Specials as Sunday headliner, but unfortunately not happening now

Who do you want, sadly one of our targets has left us in a ghost town for the Sunday closing slot. Please let us have any suggestions

First announcement coming today,

What we announce tomorrow is only a couple of main stage acts including the friday headline. They have been requested but marmite booking i anticipate. Its not a young act though, fridays woodland headline will be a strong alternative and a past pallet headliner

[walkforever]

I see a number of bands now have announcements this evening !!!

[Flaminglippy]

I'm thinking maybe Manics?

[rob.a]

Looking good to me. Seems like a strong starting line up!

[elgatonegrofabricwardrobe]

Well pleased with that 1st announcement. Flaming Lips will be magic.

[dotdash79]

Excellent first drop

[uscore]

Still 2 headliners and all 3 subs up for grabs too, great start!

[Paul ™]

Awesome! As always

[Gnomicide]

Yep, good stuff. I don't get the hype about Flaming Lips but willing to give them a go. I will of course leg it 15 mins from the end to get round to the Woodland for The Damned.

Great to see Doonicans getting their first stab at the main stage.

[Curlygirl]

I am overjoyed at this first drop. I love the flaming lips and theres 10 other bands on there I like. 

[DomDom1984]

Can't be fucked with Flaming Lips on record, but as a live act, they're absolutely astonishing. Seen em twice at festivals, 16 years apart, and were fantastic both times. Had barely even heard of them the first time too, despite them subbing Glasto and T in the Park.
