I wonder if there are rules about what acts 'jokes' can be made about or is it just who makes them that counts?

Their 1982 USA arena tour sold poorly and they never went back with Freddie. After the video for I Want to Break Free came out in 1984, their popularity there completely nosedived.

Something they seemed to be a bee in their bonnet judging by how it's addressed in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie.

 

Maybe it was just ahead of its time given the explosion drag has seen in popularity in recent years.

It was such a great video too!

For all the people who said LDR should have topped in '23, she's got stadium dates around the festival this year.

She shouldn't have topped it, she was big enough to top it. Her on time reliability is poor as is her ego to think it's okay and they can't afford to put her on Sunday due to time curfew.

Not saying she should have myself. Believe she was the most expensive R+L headliner this year to boot.

This is clearly bollocks or she would have headlined and not done the 2nd slot.

Why would they spend more on a 2nd headliner than any of the actual headliners 😂

In the press I read she was paid 2 million for her slot twice the money Blink got only 1 million -  as to why you would have to ask Nigel Benn or the bookers 

 

Perhaps the fact there was an act on after her was to apply some pressure to stage arrival time?

@charlierc  You would be quite correct, and you have a great memory as @LoveAndTheft hadn't posted on here since June 2023 until making a come back on Monday 18th November. I wonder where they've been during that time? 

 

And it's hardly surprisingly but it would appear it was  @LoveAndTheft who started the fake rumours last time. Perhaps its time for them to take another break from trying to derail threads, or find themself taking an enforced break/placed on post moderation by the moderation team. 

 

Apologies to users for the lengthy thread but here below are a selection of their previous posts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

@LoveAndTheft Only in your head! 

 

Now lets get the thread back on track! 

Reported to Admin. I am only putting out what I have been told. It was a rumour last year, which unfortunately did not come off. Same rumours doing the rounds this year. I'll keep the info to myself in future. But I'll be the one laughing when Peter Kay is confirmed.

Good job wasting their time!

In a very literal sense, the only one.

It is more amusing than KLF or Nick Cave honestly
