I'm not sure I believe that, it's not like they didn't know who they were paying before. Beyonce also took a hell of a lot of younger crowd with that. She was 29/30 when she payed, not 40+
Yeah I mean we camped in red on nice flat ground in 08/09 and we had a great time despite the thieves next to us the second year....not our stuff taken thankfully, and site wise there wasn't an issue. The ball ache of dragging everything from the car park along the riverfront to the entrance wasn't exactly fun. No chance I'll ever return with it costing 拢55 alone to park for a day l, the same as weekend. That's actually daughter properly and slanderous. Worse than Download and that's a joke that's bad enough.
Looking at the Cruel World setlists, I think Duran Duran got 16 songs, the second tier acts got 12, then 9 and 6. There's a lot of acts on at Forever Now that are similar sized, but I guess The The and Billy Idol look like being touted as next down after Kraftwerk. I suspect The Damned will be the 2nd stage headliners as they're performing The Black Album in full, which is quite lengthy.
Pretty sure i seen that Gahan recently said neither he or Gore had even thought about doing new DM stuff. So I'd imagine even if they were affordable, they wouldn't be available for the foreseeable.
Going back and listening to some albums i've missed over the year and the new Los Campesi帽os one is sick! I like the down to earth and witty vocals, and the sing along quality of the songs. It's very emotive and resonates a lot with the times we're living in, nice to hear these guys coming back with something so great, possibly as good as they were in their prime, just in a different way.
