Ian Brown and Shed Seven on at the same time? Not going to happen.

Loving this years line up, how easy was it to get back to Manchester from here after the festival?

Fontaines on second stage is a bit of a joke. 

[TheDHolford]

At least they're headlining second stage, will they clash with Ian Brown, or with Sam Fender? If it's with Sam fender that's seriously going to cut into their crowd size.

Ah right, not fussed about Fender or Brown, but Reverend and the Makers into Fontaines D.C. looks decent to me.

Going ahead first week of September then. Done well to keep the majority if the lineup together.

Be interested to see how ticket sales go now taking into account refunds and new ticket buyers who've missed out on Glasto/IOW etc.

September is jam packed with festivals so sales are going to be tough.

Did they mention refunds as I can not see it on the press release? Was going on the catfish day, wedding anniversary on the 6th September no can not make it.

i reckon once it's clear they're going ahead (and it's clear they're going ahead) then ticket will fly out the door for any and all events happening. 

The dilemma for organisers will be keeping faith in the event happening when people are naturally going to hold back on buying tickets if it's not clear the events will go ahead - it's going to be a big financial risk for them.

Wonder when they’ll call this? Surely they must know by now there is no chance of it going ahead.

Bearded Theory are making the call in July/August, if the build isn't long then they might hold on for as long as possible

This weekend 😢

Now moved again, next May 29-30th 2021. Looks like most acts have signed for next year, except Fontaines DC who have been replaced by Easy Life. Shame that but fingers crossed this goes ahead as a cracking festival to start the summer.

Yeah shame about Fontaines (and Cast who I do like!) But still a great lineup for those of us who like such music so I'm definitely going if it happens. Could easily fill the Saturday, and probably nearly fill the Sunday twice though there could be some gaps where I see more than expected on 2nd and 3rd stage

I was also saying earlier that maybe Ian Brown may be a bit more willing to do Stone Roses songs as it's his first tour since they got back together. He could lift his gigs even more if he followed the Ashcroft/Noel/Weller route of sprinkling a couple more big tracks in there, especially as a headliner
