I am off away on business tomorrow for a month - with Bearded and 2000Trees both announcing this month how am I supposed to concentrate on the work I should be doing?

If BT announced Siouxsie I would be far far far too excited to manage any work for a week!!

Bit dramatic but OK

After being on the radar for a few years we’re finally giving this a go next year. In the unlikely event that the lineup is awful compared to previous years, we’ve decided to hold out for tickets until the first announcement. 

I know people have mentioned it’s dropping this month, but any idea when? I’m assuming it doesn’t usually sell out instantly on the release of lineup either?

Don't think it sold out at all last year...think if it does its much closer to the date so you will be fine to wait until the first announcement. Running out of days in Oct so hopefully won't be long before the announcement.

Yeah - though from what was said, it sounded like they were only a few hundred short of sold out and relatively happy with the sales.

Think it's only fully sold out a couple times which always baffles me given what great value for money it is.

Yeah, definitely...what more do people want!? Particularly given the fact you take your own booze and food in

Honestly even if it is crap you’ll have such a great time. My wife was only bothered about a handful of artists (PSB, Mik Artistik, The Beths and Beans) and knew none of the headliners but she absolutely loved it.

[TheFullShaboo]

Rather surprised to hear that it doesn’t usually sell out! Lineups always great value and I’ve only heard positive things about it.

Would love The Breeders to be playing!
