'crowbar' and 'sidewise'... there's no way these are real bands
areal o'hanlon used to be the compere on some bbc stand up show on saturday nights after motd in the 90s, even as a child easily amused by any sort of comedy i found him a bit bad and boring.

rock is pretty sad. rock is getting into listening to dixieland in the 50s or 60s territory.
― scott seward, Monday, 3 April 2017 22:17 (seven years ago) link
i mean like rawk rock. though indie rock can be pretty sad too.

buckcherry play all these fests and they are "newer" than people like sammy hagar obviously but the lead singer of buckcherry is pushing 50. rock = older than the hills.

Saw this advertised in the paper today. Aside from the headliners, bits of Saturday are salvageable, but not Sunday.

(and actually I've seen de la soul at a festival before and it wasn't that great a show)
somehow I find "John Lewis Food Village" provides the grimmest lol

Now.
I'm not saying this is the worst festival, right?
Because this is the "Worst festival lineup" thread. Which is a different thing.
so:
Bluesfest returns to The O2 with some of the world’s leading blues-inspired artists. Chic feat Nile Rodgers headline the Friday night and Daryl Hall & John Oates plus very special guest Chris Isaak will play the Saturday.3
YGM?
― Mark G, Tuesday, 11 July 2017 11:08 (six years ago) link
every artist on that list rules. Steely Dan and Doobie Brothers are also playing. RULES.
― jamiesummerz, Tuesday, 11 July 2017 11:47 (six years ago) link
As I say.
But: Bluesfest?

No line-up yet, and not sure just how much music there will be, but worth keeping an eye on for this thread: Conservatives to hold one-day festival after response to Jeremy Corbyn’s Glastonbury appearance
Mid Norfolk MP George Freeman is credited with the idea, the aim of which is said to be increasing the party’s grassroots support.[...]Now, the Financial Times reports he has raised £25,000 for the event, which will be held in September. Freeman said he had also had “some wonderful offers of help of sponsorship and venues” and the idea for a right wing festival “seems to have struck a chord”.He likened the one-day festival to a “cross between Hay-on-Wye and the Latitude festival” and described it as a reaction to the “increasingly corporate, expensive and exclusive” Tory party conference.Freeman’s event will be invitation-only, with only between 150 to 200 people to attend. He said it would be like a “first rave, you’ll remember who you brought.”“Aim isn’t Glastonbury (!) More like grassroots #PoliticsFest: Big Tent. Philosophy. Culture,” he added on Twitter.
