Moosey Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Has the budget been slashed this year or something? Yes. I don't have anything else to add here, but the forum won't let me post just "yes". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alternageek Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Also arent the Everly Pregnant Bros Pete McKees band?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalowl Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 So Damo, let me get this straight. If you have never heard of a band that means they are rubbish and nobody wants to see them, yet if you have heard of the band - it is because Radio 1 told you that you should like them? I bet the hours just fly by in your company..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomaxkinesis Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 There is so much more going to be announced, that is just some of the acts for the Sunday and a few from other areas of the festival. For all the pop fans the Saturday will be announced in the near future. I can't wait to announce my line-up for the Saturday at the Harley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the hours just fly by in your company..... Thats not what I said at all. Generally people only start to hear about a band because Radio 1 get a bee in their bonnet about one and promote them to the extreme. Are the bands in the OP going to appeal to the generic everyday punter? Yes or No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the bands in the OP going to appeal to the generic everyday punter? Yes or No? Never listen to Radio 1 so can't comment on that. Echo and the Bunnymen (and the acts beforehand) were very received and it was packed from mid-afternoon (Sunday). I would hazard a guess that Ash have sold way more records than Echo, so yes, it will appeal and it will be packed. As people have already said, these are likely to be just some of the names announced for the Sunday bill. I'm sure a few boy bands and I'm a celebrity-like acts will be announced for the Saturday. Are you going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
