discodown Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Yes, the famous rappy, shouty, hip-hoppers are just the ticket for somebody who doesn't like rappy, shouty bands. Any others? Maybe you should head for the Folk Forest? That will at least be relatively low key and from what I understand is a lot of peoples favourite part of the whole festival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted_B Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Maybe you should head for the Folk Forest? That will at least be relatively low key and from what I understand is a lot of peoples favourite part of the whole festival Thanks for the suggestion. I've seen The Natterjacks before and I enjoyed them. But they're on a bit early (12:00 at Endcliffe Park). It's a pity they're not playing in The City Centre. Hip-Hop v Val Doonican so far. Anything a bit more mainstream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe try the This Is Heeley stage for Everley Pregnant Brothers or the Fat Cat for stuff going on down there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like The Everley Pregnants but again a bit far out of town for my intended city centre pub crawl. Cheers anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy C Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 How about catch a Busker Tram from Sheffield Station to Shalesmoor (depart at 5 past the hour with live music on board) then to CADS for the blues stage then onto Shakespeare's. From here you could walk to Red House or the main stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan0310 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Cant wait for weekend, hope weather holds out. Only thing is Ponderosa is a bit far away from rest of event so you need to pick out what you want to see carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pudforever Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Anybody else think it's entirely stupid that you buy a ticket online and then have to queue for ages to get a wristband... Why not post the wristband out and solve this issue? Seems a stupid way of doing things and a waste of everyones time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it just a reference number you print out and take to the wristband exchange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
