Trnsmt 2025

90% of the folk who go to TRNSMT don't have a clue or give a sh*t about the headliners. It's 14-16 year olds who just want to get wasted.  Promoters know this, hence putting on Pulp last year which meant they sold 2x festivals for that day.  Said 14-16 year olds headed out before Pulp, just as the 40+ brigade were heading in.  Guess this means that the likes of Muse might make an appearance next year, to monetise as last year.  Mind you - sold out this year without an act like that. 

 

Apparently even Liam Gallagher (hot off the heels of 2x Hydro gigs - didn't think that was normally allowed) had most of the crowd moaning during his set as they only knew the Oasis hits, ie not Definitely Maybe and its associated B-sides.

 

Hardly anyone below the headliners gets paid - it's a £££-fest for DF.

 

sh*t for c**ts.

Reckon they could be nailed on for this since there’s no Scottish stadium date announced (not that I think they’re big enough for stadiums mind you 😂https://x.com/thebottlemen/status/1825458940165136853?s=46&t=LmsSnZ5P1q8fcePdfLqd0g

I'm stunned by those 2 gigs. seems crazy that they are playing stadiums

This is not how festivals work - maybe for a club night with timed tickets but this definitely won't happen at TRNSMT.

Don't think @coco_shunteris claiming they sold 2 sets of tickets, more that they put on stuff which is lowest common denominator/not "coherent" and just try to pull in as many punters as possible.  The line ups are mostly shocking.  They presumably book acts like The Strokes and Pulp solely to maintain relationships or avoid someone else trying to stage something more tasteful in competition.

So they try and book a wide variety of acts to attract as many punters as possible? That doesn’t seem all that shocking.

So they try and attract as many punters as possible to make a profit? That doesn’t seem all that shocking.

The trnsmt crowd would be happy with George Bowie playing for 10 hours on the mani stage.

I'm beginning to think Justin Timberlake might turn up at this.

Would be very out there of a booking

 

Do they still do glasgow summer sessions? complete wrong end of summer though. just seems very strange for TRNSMT. The booker is very blokes with guitarsy, not sure he'd go for them

I'd have assumed they'd have confirmed Timberlake in advance of the lineup with his other dates.

May not have the rest of the lineup sorted - they usually announce in one go almost all of it
