I should have expanded on what I meant - I think they'd be great in a Pyramid slot, personally! But I just mean that in recent years, and perhaps last year was a crude example of this, people wanted (or seemed to want) the huge pop acts who had been booked to on Pyramid (see: Avril on Other). I always think to be solid for the Pyramid you need at least 5 songs that people in crowd know fairly well - i.e. be commercially successful act and a leader in the genre. Again, no reason why I don't think that they would be a bad fit, just offering a POV different to the one that even I hold.
To be honest if there's 2-5 hours worth of queuing I don't blame you, I blame the venue or people queueing stupidly. I remember MCR at MK was a joke for queues. I didn't get a drink of alcohol, food or any water due to the joke of queues. Poor venue planning and management it comes down too. I find toilets at festivals a lot of the time that everyone queues at the front when there are loads of toilets or urinals free towards the back. It's also started happening where people queue at a bar, the queue at a bar is to stand at the bar and then be courteous to the people next to you if you know they were in front, not in one by one queue - it ends up getting in the way doing that. It's weird. I think sometimes it's about common sense with it.
