Damned pull out

That's a shame, they were a definite.

[Little Andy]

Regrettably, I think we all have to expect many artists to pull out this year (as well as punters!). Hopefully the festival has lots of replacements already on the bench.

[pahqman]

Awww.... damn. 😞

[FloorFiller]

Hope this isn’t the beginning of a landslide of acts pulling out like was the case with Primavera earlier in the month. 

[maelzoid]

Reef though... I'm sorry for the Damned and their fans, but for me, that's a bump up.

[Quark]

Bummer for me, was looking forward to this but Reef's not a bad replacement. Probably won't be there (although never say never!) but fingers crossed everyone still enjoys it!

This was always going to be a risk. Main thing is that whoever's got it in the Damned's camp recovers sharpish 

[Crazyfool01]

Seems like they have a reserve list of people not already on the lineup to plug gaps 

[Obiginnaw]

Yeah for me that's made my Friday night, knew i packed my Reef t-shirt for a reason!

 

 

[The Nal]

Well theres the Damned/Gong clash sorted.

Gong it is

 

[Gnomicide]

Fucking Hell.

[jparx]

Wasn't going to see them but it's a shame to see acts drop out at this stage. Feels like a bit of a lottery until we get to the day!

[moogster]

😞 Wouldn't have minded seeing them...

The Cult are also surely on that list somewhere as well

[pahqman]

Chris Martin is gonna be busy....

That’s not quite The Darkness replacing Bowie at TITP, but still FFS

There’s still time for our version of that…

[Quark]

Looking on the (selfish) plus side, this could work for me in a way. I would have been either cutting Dub War short or missing the start of The Damned (even more so now that DW's set is showing as finishing at 23:40), and then would have had the same issue between the end of The Damned and the start of Chainska Brassika. With the extended Dub War slot I can now watch all of them and then happily bimble over to Small World for CB without rushing or missing either.

Swings and roundabouts innit

Can't wait to sing "Yer Old" with / at Reef.
