Industrial BBQ
― cod latin (dog latin), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 08:31 (eight years ago) link
At first I thought the festival was literally for fans of industrial size barbecue grills, and I was like wow, I didn't realize BBQ enthusiasts are so heavily into metal. But then I managed to parse the title in my head.

Unbelievably, Livestock has managed to get worse since the poster I shared a couple of months ago. They've added Toploader on the Saturday. FUCKING TOPLOADER!
― arbiter of sorrow (aldo), Wednesday, 1 July 2015 12:10 (eight years ago) link
Toploader was always a very misleading name for that band. They're not "top", and they're a "loader" shit.

That were right good. (Very low expectations, mind you.) This whole baggy thing might catch on.
Livestock has to be the thread leader, surely? A striking lack of transition between the headliners and supports. It jumps straight from unfondly-remembered ex-Top 10 acts to seemingly unknown bands, who the organizers shuffled around at random on the poster. Poor old I Am The Id got bumped down by 7 lines. Not wanting to be unfair on any of those bands, except maybe Mumford & the Bear and late addition to the bottom of the bill The Nick Parker Band. Hope we see a legal action by the real Nick Parker.
Courtesy of Should Festivals be Banned?, here's a former nominee. Based on amusing artist names, I think I would go to this.

there's a lot of garbage on that bill, but 10-12 decent to great acts mixed in, two to three of them quite appropriate to southern california not counting ether snoop dogg or no doubt

that bill is probably what t in the park will be like in 5 years
With the exception of Katy B, Years & Years and the 90s acts, the rest of that bill is regarded by most of ILM with indifference or contempt. I can't think of a single ILXer who would be driven to defend it as an entity, much less rep for it, beyond "well there's obviously a market for it".

No one is invested enough in the V festival to care, and those that do go every year are likely to be more or less okay with the lineup. It's been pretty much a pop festival for years now. You'd have to be a particularly antidleluvian kind of dullard to get angry about it especially when Reading and numerous other bland Home Counties festivals already exist.

aye, not all my cup of tea but some top notch stuff for an epic swedge fest nonetheless
― Cornelius Pardew (jim in glasgow), Thursday, 25 February 2016 21:52 (eight years ago) link
a lot of festivals esp of an indie persuasion have the effect of assimilating even acts I like into a general soup of mediocrity when you're looking at the bill. the Slam tent does the inverse and makes me think I'd have a great time watching ppl I don't really care about (like Slam)
― drive me to a girly rave (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 25 February 2016 21:59 (eight years ago) link
That's pretty much a flat-pack assembly festival dance lineup, you'll be able to see most of that lot at virtually any festival this summer. I'm pretty sure I read the phrase 'Jackmaster b2b Joy Orbison' more than I do 'Hello' in 2016.
― Matt DC, Friday, 26 February 2016 16:41 (eight years ago) link
Obviously it's better than virtually anything on the main stages and I'm sure it'll do the job just fine, but there's nothing exciting or unique about it.

Is that a 90s-themed festival? Most of the acts seem to be 90s (with a few 80s) has-beens.
