Alcatraz Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 After about 10 minutes of coming to terms with this, I've concluded this poster slaps enough for me See everyone at Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a6l6e6x Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Better than last year on undercard for me, headliners bar Elton suck but overall I like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 I think it's as strong as last year and probably stronger than 2019 Only grumbles from me are the GnR Lana clash and the lack of Rosalia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leftfield though... pleased about that Where do we think they'll be? Too small to headline West Holts? JP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pr0paneNightm4re Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Was hoping the extra £55 would equate to the lineup not being painfully average like most other festivals this year… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barneym Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Worst line up in all the years I’ve been going since 2013 for me, really only Reg I’m interested in seeing/haven’t seen before. Still going to go and have the best time plus more to come but can’t help feeling a bit disappointed as there is normally one surprise on the first poster I’m super excited about. Also Pulp and the prodigy being added later (if true) turns it into a much much better line up for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s obviously been a breakdown in comms somewhere. I reckon everyone Guardian published will play this year, whether they are on that poster or not.

BenG92 Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Where do Manics go now? Still partway down other or headlining elsewhere? Been on my mrs' bucket list for a while and I'd be happy to be there too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maelzoid Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, PolygonWindow said: I think compared to last poster drop there’s a lot less names. A lot more to be announced. Yes. 54 names here. Last year it was 89. So, if you added 34 names, there's a good chance in that list there'd be enough there to lift this from 'a little disappointing' to 'Yeah, that's gonna be a great weekend.' The GNR BS besides, I wonder whom all the moaners think should be on the bill who aren't - and that should be constrained by acts who are active this summer.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyshoes Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 I'm going to be honest - for me its an under-whelming line-up and quite weak. I think we were spoilt last year. It might come into its own when we get more info on stages and times down the line and I might need to take a chance on some stuff. I know that it's not all about the bands/line-ups but I think I wanted to recreate that amazing feeling of really looking forward to seeing people and the buzz of it being amazing (Bicep/Bonobo) last year. This line-up will hopefully be a grower and I'll look forward to seeing who's on West Holts and The Park as that's mainly where I wanted to be this year. PS. I won't be putting my ticket back into the pot. PPS. Amazed that Self Esteem aren't on there - surely to be announced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm stoked. Not sure I understand the negativity but different strokes for different folks. Same same. I've got Guns N’ Roses, Elton John, Lizzo, Alison Goldfrapp, Becky Hill, Blondie, Candi Staton, Carly Rae Jepsen, Christine and the Queens, Chvrches, Flo, Kelis, Lana Del Rey, Lil Nas X, Loyle Carner, Maggie Rogers, Mahalia, Måneskin, Manic Street Preachers, Nova Twins, Raye, Rina Sawayama, Shygirl, Slowthai, Sparks, Sudan Archives, Texas, The War on Drugs, Warpaint, Young Fathers Seen about 14 of them before though. Mel C and Beth Orton also confirmed. Then there's all the small bands that don't make the poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCountryGirl Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Acts I'm excited for: Elton, Lizzo, Candi Staton, Lana Del Rey, The War on Drugs, Thundercat, Weyes Blood, Cat Stevens Even if it is a bit thin, Lana makes up for it all. I would pay the ticket cost just to see her at this point so no complaints form me, though I understand why others might be disappointed.

TGCarr Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Here seems to be complaining, where as FB & Twitter seem to be buzzing. Except for the all male headliners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
