So far I have only one must see and that is Jessie Ware. Clashes at Glatonbury and rubblish timing of her gigs in Manchester mean for one reason or another I have never seen her live. I love her last 2 albums and Saturday night is made for disco dancing.

I have a large chunk of would loves but trying not to get too excited about them because whenever I do they all end up clashing.

High up my would loves of people I have never seen before is

Romy

Cyndi Lauper

Lankum

The Mary Wallopers

Newdad

Corrine Bailey Rae

Avril Lavigne

Every year for the past three years we’ve put a white board on the fridge and as we listen to playlists (and from past performances) we add / delete.

The hell no is no disrespect to artists- just not our type of music!

We then take out loads when the timings come in 😂

So who’s on yours so far?

The cross demographic of people who'd 'love' to see both Anne Marie and Heiling must be limited to exclusively you

Missed out on the Mary Wallopers last years as decided to stay where we were and watch a  Korean band in west holts drinking brothers. We were due to watch them a week later in Manchester supporting Saw Doctors- however then got covid at Glasto. They are now borderline must see after two near misses.

3 of my must sees, The Streets, Sleaford mods and Orbital look like they are all playing at the same time. Not to mention my 2 faves clashing, Idles and fontaines.

What could have been 5 acts I would definitely see can only be 2... 

Choices to make.

This is why at this stage I try not to get my hopes up and only have one must see. One year I had 4 they all clashed so I have learned my lesson.

We have a similar idea - on Notes on my iPhone and it’s Definitely, Definitely Maybe, Maybe and No. Keep adding to it as we listen to new stuff and as more stages drop. Helps figure out what’s unmissable and what we want to see when the timings come through.
 

Well I say we but it’s mainly me. Husband occasionally has a different view but luckily mostly goes along with it …. 🤣

mines pretty easy so far:

everything else can go under "Maybe?"

 

only change to mine is to add New Model Army to "would love"

Purple - Unmissable

Green - Would Love

Blue - Maybe

White - Nahhhh

 

I try and limit it to three Purple and greens a day to avoid disappointment

Coldplay, Avril Lavigne and Cyndi Lauper being your unmissables would suggest to me that even allowing for the spirit of community, unity and togetherness at the festival we shouldn't be friends and should never attempt to even hold a conversation.

    • When it comes to air travel, flexibility is one of the most valued aspects, especially for those booking flights well in advance or with uncertain schedules. For travelers flying in Virgin Atlantic’s Premium Economy, the Flex Fare option provides just that – a more adaptable and comfortable journey. It is designed to cater to those who may need changes to their itinerary or are seeking added convenience when flying. In this blog, we’ll dive deep into what the Virgin Atlantic Flex Fare is, what it includes, and why it could be the perfect choice for your next Premium Economy flight. What is the Virgin Atlantic Flex Fare? The Flex Fare is a ticket option available in several classes on Virgin Atlantic, including Premium Economy. As the name suggests, it offers greater flexibility compared to standard or more restrictive fare types. With a Flex Fare, you have the freedom to make changes to your flight without facing hefty penalties or losing a significant amount of your fare, making it an ideal choice for those whose travel plans may not be set in stone. Flex Fare is part of Virgin Atlantic's tiered fare system, which also includes Economy Light, Economy Classic, and Economy Delight, among others. The Flex Fare lies in the higher-end spectrum of these options, offering enhanced benefits, more perks, and fewer restrictions. Key Features of Virgin Atlantic Flex Fare in Premium Economy When booking a Flex Fare in Premium Economy, you are provided with several benefits that enhance your travel experience. These include: Free Flight Changes: One of the primary reasons travelers opt for the Flex Fare is the ability to make changes to their flight without incurring significant penalties. If you need to adjust your travel dates or destinations, Virgin Atlantic allows you to rebook your flight for a small change fee (if applicable), ensuring flexibility in your plans. Refundable Tickets: Unlike non-refundable or less flexible fare types, Flex Fare tickets in Premium Economy are refundable. If you need to cancel your trip, you can request a refund, subject to certain terms and conditions. This is particularly helpful for those whose plans might be subject to change or cancellation. Priority Check-in and Boarding: Flex Fare passengers benefit from priority check-in, which reduces the time spent at the airport and allows you to get to your gate quicker. Additionally, you’ll be among the first to board the plane, giving you extra time to settle into your Premium Economy seat and enjoy the perks before the cabin fills up. Increased Baggage Allowance: A typical Premium Economy booking already offers more generous luggage allowances compared to standard Economy tickets. But with a Flex Fare, you may also get additional checked baggage, ensuring you have ample space for your belongings without worrying about excess baggage fees. Access to Virgin Atlantic’s Clubhouse (if available): For those flying from select airports with access to Virgin Atlantic’s luxurious lounges, Flex Fare passengers enjoy access to the airline's Clubhouse, where they can relax, enjoy fine dining, and experience premium amenities before their flight. Higher Miles Earning Potential: With a Flex Fare, travelers often earn more Flying Club miles (Virgin Atlantic’s frequent flyer points), which can be redeemed for future flights, upgrades, or other rewards. This is a great benefit for frequent flyers who want to accumulate miles faster for additional perks down the line. Priority Security Screening: Some locations may offer priority security screening for Flex Fare passengers, ensuring a smoother, quicker process as you move through airport security. Why Choose Virgin Atlantic Flex Fare in Premium Economy? Here are a few reasons why the Flex Fare is an excellent choice for your next Virgin Atlantic Premium Economy Uncertainty in Travel Plans: Life is unpredictable, and travel plans can change at a moment’s notice. Whether you're attending a business meeting, a wedding, or a family reunion, the Flex Fare ensures that you’re not locked into a rigid itinerary. The ability to change your flight with minimal hassle makes it an ideal option for those who might need to adjust plans closer to departure. Peace of Mind: Having the option to cancel or change your flight without heavy penalties brings peace of mind. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for business travelers or those booking far in advance, as it allows them to adapt to any last-minute changes in their schedules. Comfort and Added Perks: While Premium Economy is already a step up from regular Economy, the Flex Fare enhances that experience even more. With priority check-in, increased baggage allowance, and additional privileges such as access to the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse, travelers can enjoy an elevated and stress-free journey. Ideal for Long-Haul Flights: If you’re flying long distances, such as to the US or the Caribbean, the extra comfort and flexibility of the Flex Fare can make a world of difference. Long-haul flights require careful planning, and having the freedom to adjust your travel dates and cancel if necessary is especially useful for those who want a worry-free experience. Higher Value for Frequent Flyers: Frequent travelers who are part of Virgin Atlantic’s Flying Club can make the most of the additional miles earned with a Flex Fare. Earning more points means faster access to rewards and upgrades, making it an appealing option for those who frequently travel with Virgin Atlantic. How Much Does Virgin Atlantic Flex Fare in Premium Economy Cost? While the Flex Fare provides numerous benefits, it's important to note that it comes at a premium over standard Economy tickets. The price difference can vary depending on the route, time of booking, and availability, but in general, the Flex Fare costs more than the standard Economy Classic or Economy Light fares. However, for many travelers, the added benefits—especially the ability to change or cancel flights without hefty fees—justify the price difference. If flexibility is a priority for your trip, then the extra investment in a Flex Fare might be well worth it. Conclusion Virgin Atlantic’s Flex Fare in Premium Economy is designed for travelers who value flexibility, comfort, and peace of mind. With the ability to make flight changes, cancel tickets with a refund, and enjoy numerous perks such as priority check-in, increased baggage allowance, and access to exclusive lounges, the Flex Fare ensures that your journey is as smooth as possible. If your travel plans are subject to change or if you want to ensure you have more control over your itinerary, choosing the Flex Fare in Premium Economy could be a smart investment for a stress-free travel experience. Whether you're booking a vacation or a business trip, the flexibility and added benefits of the Flex Fare could make all the difference in your journey.
    • Pretty sure there'll be a couple of big ones at the end of the month to go along with payday. 
    • northernangel acting like an authority on if and when someone should tour. Thankfully it doesn't actually work like that.
    • There was a period in the middle of last season where he looked quite decent, but it did seem curious to spend a superstar budget on potential. Particularly given Atalanta seem to have reinvested the proceeds very well, having won the Europa League last season and now being Serie A leaders.    Saying that, for all that I'm not sure about if it was worth it, a striker can only be as good as the supporting infrastructure in any case and if the chance creators just aren't doing the business, they're going to feel a bit of a passenger. It's like how Haaland has looked in some games of Man City's recent malaise - barely any chances created means its not a surprise he's been struggling to score. Even if Haaland did miss a penalty against Everton.   Mason Mount being permanently injured probably doesn't help, given he would arguably be one of the players suited to the AMs in a 3-4-3 as he played in that system with Tuchel at Chelsea. But hey. We're debating the incoherence of Man Utd both on the macro level of the post-Fergie era and the micro level that is just since Ineos brought a stake. We could probably carry on until the 2025/26 thread is needed at this rate.
    • It was something looking at the Hootenanny acts in days of yore and they did seem to once be able to book quite zeitgeist of the time acts. Now, eh.   Even if it something to note quite a few people still thought it was done live. Same with Ellis-Bextor on the other side, although hers did kinda look like fun when I saw bits of it.
