I don't care how much he says he regretted it. In 83 he should just have known better. This came out a few months later, this was the mood of the time he went there. Not right, unforgivable.

Gnomicide Posted February 26, 2023 Report Share Posted February 26, 2023 Related to headliners but hopefully not this year, has there been a wet one since U2? I don't remember it raining at any of the ones I've been at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember it raining at any of the ones I've been at. Yeah I was thinking about this not long ago. Possibly the odd shower here and there, although tbh I don’t even remember that, and definitely not anything like U2 or even anything mildly inconvenient. I dread it every year but seem to have avoided it, thus far… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep it did - at least at the beginning- prompted us to move on somewhere else as we decided Metallica wasn’t for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It rained before hand and the mud was horrendous (stopped me from going over to the Other for LCD Soundsystem) but it cleared up as they came on. Have my hood up in pictures so it may have been a bit drizzly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stayed for LCD, but didn't really enjoy it, even though I knew it was brilliant! I was just too tired! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 Not exactly breaking news...but I was on the train last night, happened to be sitting next to a concert promoter, it's definitely the Arctic Monkeys Friday night he said.

Yep I don't think either remaining headliner is getting their own announcement and unless they are waiting until the end of March to drop the poster I think the poster may be the next announcement that we get.
