both of them go most years and both have played recently. Don't take anything the gallagher brother say in the press too
The neil young info included Charli XCX headlining the other on the same night though. If one is true, both probs are
I think this is a great lineup and happy to see a return to bigger names being booked and them expanding the festival back to what it was pre-covid (not that I have been since and am sure that it was still great the last couple of years).
I always felt they were taking the piss a little bit with offering the 'boutique' festival experience (that means made smaller in festival talk), and going 'back to their roots' with the lineup (that largely just means booking acts you could probably see on any given day, in any city in the country).
I know that a lot of people go for the vibe and the production, and it is truly unlike anything I have ever been to, but expecting people to pay the same price as Download/Reading/Glastonbury and giving them Bob Vylan and Pendulum DJ set is an absolute piss take.
I think I would have been more fine if they had just come out and said 'look guys, we lost a bunch of money over covid, and for that reason we might have to strip it back for a couple of years'.
