luckysalt Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 If tickets have already sold strong enough I think they'll just go for a weak headliner now, 2 that are possible and never done it before who would fit with the undercard are The Script and Snow Patrol. I can't stress this enough as people think they're holding the name back. They aren't. They don't have anyone booked. Like I said previous page I think someone fell through and then they've been trying to get Pulp. But it ain't happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s30foster Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 The Walkmen announced for Green Man Festival the week before. I'd like them to show up on the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnl Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I think the original plan was Noel Gallagher. There was clearly a bit of confusion over his Irish date perhaps Victorious thought they had him but they didn’t. Zero chance of Pulp. They are playing Festival Republic festivals this year so no way they’d be allowed to play a Superstruct one. Florence is possible but I think she’s most likely to play APE. Jamie T is a possible but that would be so underwhelming and I’m a fan. The 1975 would be a good grab for them but I think the most likely answer is The Prodigy. They’re an act known to the Festival, are about and are available. Delay in announcing maybe something to do with having to let the Essex Festival announce first.

retrokev Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 would settle for flo.seen twice and very enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Snow Patrol would fit in with my "gies a singalong at a festival" criteria so I'd be happy enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Carbohydrate Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Just give us Liam after his wee tease, with Ashcroft subbing on the Sunday. That’d do the job! Someone mentioned Tom Jones earlier. For me if he played Victorious he’d be the afternoon special guest. With regards the poster, surely we have a good few more names to add? Given Friday is a full day, rather than just single stage for the evening? Would love to see Chris Helme added with dodgy, they’ve been doing a few shows together and Chris on the acoustic stage banging out some seahorses classics is what victorious is all about for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack01825 Posted March 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 With Margate about to announce and having talked about female headliners.......Chaka Khan!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Not seeing her as a headliner at all, although potentially a very fun addition all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FestivalJamie Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Could it be Lorde? She’s doing a Europe tour and just starting to announce the dates now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Carbohydrate Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 I just had a thought about Garbage… they’d tick all the boxes for victorious headliner. On tour in the US with Noel Gallagher as support 😮 tour finishes up mid July so always potential for uk tour later in the summer, squeezing in Sunday headliner a lot. Not very likely I know… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musemonster Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 This is just for fun. Watched Saturday Night Takeaway - Tom Grennan for the Sunday headliner? Jamiroquai and the Virtual Insanity clue?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BagpussSeesAllThings Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Has anyone who's been previously travelled from Southampton? Looking at trains they seem to finish before the festival ends so seems the only way is the big green coach which seems pretty extortionate for such a short journey. Any other ways to get there/ back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s30foster Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Placebo playing Rock En Seine on the Friday night. They could pop along for a headline show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s30foster Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Finally bought my tickets last night and booked accommodation at Greetham Street Uni Halls. Looking forward to a full weekend at Victorious rather than the odd day i've been doing over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaminglippy Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) 'Mumford and Sons' Sunday night headliner...the person who suggested the headliner would be 'garbage' got closest. Edited March 7, 2023 by Flaminglippy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
