I thought the 1975 would be comfortably beyond being broke by now? They have done multiple arena tours. Have just seen your label explanation - sounds very Factory/New Order for a band in 2025, there must be a ring fence.
@NorthernSoul52 - do you mean the Noah ticket prices leapt up between winter and summer?
I see no reason for TRNSMT to spend more money than they have done to date or depart from the dubious white guys with guitar formula. It's literally 2 miles from my house so I'd prefer a better line up than their typical but I can't see it. Tbf to DF they must have lost a few quid on the Connect reboots where they tried to be tasteful and the audience sadly didn't seem to be there. Personally the venue was a major turn off.
Kasabian (meh), Fontaines (I'd go to that), 1975 (meh-ish)
How much Fatboy Slim has released is pretty irrelevant. He's still a draw which means he's still worthy of big spots. That's pretty much the only qualification.
If there's a good choice ahead of him at Kendal, I'll skip if I go, but he definitely deserves the spot he got.
Welcome to the 'Insta Age' where a tick on a list is all they want and need and a photo or two to prove it.
To some just being there is the 'experience' rather than actually experiencing the whole thing.
Wouldn't want a split nail or anything like that now would you.
To be honest, I think the idea of it being a massive bucket list activity talked up by the BBC is a load of nonsense.
The vast majority of people don't just land at Glasto having not done gigs or festivals or BST etc.
Most people you meet have been before and/or have an interest in festivals generally.
