Bang on this to be honest. I'm sure they talk to a few legend acts hoping at least one is up for it - if she wants to do it then she definitely should. She can come back and do it again in 10 years if she wishes too!

Since cutting costs and moving everything to the bowl they have definitely focused on DnB as somewhat of a cost-effective niche to sell tickets, but now it's gone too far and it's a DnB fest with everything else an afterthought. It's hard to knock them as judging by ticket sales and noise on social media it's worked as well - most of the DnB accounts I follow all post about Boomtown as the one to go to with videos from Origin every year. Also, while I agree Boomtown isn't 'all about the line up / big names playing', pre-Covid it really did have it all. Hopefully now the coffers are stocked up again and there's talks of Lions Den coming back, they might bring it back to what it used to be. The Pendulum DJ set is a perfect example of how it's changed in the last 5 years. Imagine them on Lions Den. I'm no expert on fees but I'd hazard a safe guess to say that booking the Pendulum DJ set is probably less than a 1/4 of the cost of a set from the full band, probably even more. -

Didn't think to look at the setlist actually. I like The Old Style Raiders and Between The Rocks (early on) and Zombie, but don't really think much of Sheila or Sticks n Stones, though can imagine the atmosphere is good. No Emily's Heart at all. I think I can sacrifice the earlier two, watch all of Frank Turner and still make it over for the encore with that 20 minutes. Can at least say I've given it a go then! -

not the time to say Emily / Michael and team need a Pat on the back for the cleanup operation then ? -
First step on the bucket list is get the ticket I'll then worry about the big plans that I absolutely won't achieve afterwards 😄
