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

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 (eight years ago)
every artist on that list rules. Steely Dan and Doobie Brothers are also playing. RULES.
― jamiesummerz, Tuesday, 11 July 2017 11:47 (eight years ago)
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.

You could probably add Laura Marling to the bill, and Alex James of course. And might as well invite all the Blairite riff raff to this do as well, get fucking Lineker in there DJ'ing with Dan Hodges.
― calzino, Sunday, 6 August 2017 20:46 (eight years ago)
It would not surprise me that Laura Marling is a tory. Has she said as much?
― PaulTMA, Sunday, 6 August 2017 21:14 (eight years ago)
It would be even less surprising than Kate Bush, cos Marling is the daughter of a baronet rather than a doctor. Or does that work the other way round? Fuck knows. My only evidence is that Marcello once referred to her as a "Tory twat".
― calzino, Sunday, 6 August 2017 22:17 (eight years ago)
The one time I had to endure her live show she came across as stuck up and self-involved, so I guess there was always that

Who hasn't Marcello referred to as a Tory twat? He probably says it to himself in the mirror in the mornings.
