Worst ever festival line up?

Castle Donington Monsters of Rock 1990 – Whitesnake, Aerosmith, Poison, the Quireboys, Thunder (in that order) – must take some beating. When Whitesnake are the best band on a bill, you know it's bad.

would be nice to see a "best festival lineups" thread getting bumped instead of this

Well, I look forward to more videos of Aaron Lewis's old man temper tantrums anyway.

I support your idea for a new thread, DT.

God, where's Gay Dad when we need them?

Who the fuck is Becky Hill? Primal Scream is stuck in whatever the “big tent” is? Tom Jones? My god.

IOW Festival?

WOW I DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE STILL GOING Festival more like

Wet Leg

I am intrigued by Becky Hill - she's the guest vocalist on loads of recent dance pop hits, the kind that are designed to be big rather than organically growing from club culture. She's on the TOTP Xmas special every year and her voice is actively unpleasant and she seems a really bland performer, to the point where I genuinely don't understand how she's managed to sustain any kind of career.

she has the ultimate indie girl voice - it's all these affected mannerisms and nothing else, then when she tries to belt it out for a bit her voice sounds like it's cracking, there is just nothing good there. At least with Jessie J she could actually sing when she needed to.

tbf, this is "Bland and Unpleasant: The festival"

Here you, Boaby an' the Scream urnae bland.

Hoping this doesn't clash with the Hay Festival, Boab has his memoir to promote.

What in the fuck is Def Leggend? (I assume just a Def Lep tribute band but that is one terrible name.)

skillet... ugh why

Skillet were part of the reason for the share lol.

omg at Def Leggend website

https://defleggend.com/index.html

What made you decide on playing guitar?
"That is very easy.... Girls !"

2) What types of music inspire you?
"80's hair metal , and good praise music !"

3) Why a Def Leppard tribute band??
"Because they have had such an impact on music , and have become one of the top Rock Bands in history. Their appeal attracts both young and old. They also have such an incredible catalog of music to choose from. And then there's the fact that they are my all time Favorite Band!"

4) Whats your most embarrassing moment on stage?
" My most embarrassing moment was playing and Adult Biker Rally and while we were setting up to go on , they were having a Male Contest where the Men were in Thongs or even less. Pretty Gross !! "

5) What is your home town?
" Dallas Texas the One and Only !"

3) Why the name Def Leggend?
"Def Leppard is truly a legendary band so I think "LEGGEND" fits perfectly. The double “G’s” have a great Leppard-style look."

L-R: steve, joe, tommy shaw?, viv, rick

Fucking Lit sandwiched between Sebastian Bach and Steven Adler like they even belong there at all.

Guessing Def Leggend don't go as far as hacking off their drummer's arm

I think they hacked off his leg.

Rocktember in the running for worst ever festival name too.

Sucktember sounds better

2) What types of music inspire you?
"80's hair metal , and good praise music !"

picturing the guy headbanging to "I can sing of your loooooove foreverrrrrrrrrrr"

Open the eyes of my heart, loooooooooooooooooooooooord
Open the eyes of my heart
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah

i swear this guy reminds me of every dude I played in Praise Band with in high school

their knowledge of rock music ended at 1987

he's obviously talking about this guy:

Oof that one is definitely one of the worst ones yet. Who is even the audience for this?

Boomers who think Motley Crue is "too heavy"

lol at Anthrax somehow attaching themselves to this

Nivrana is a good name for a Nirvana tribute band.

pls tell me Jett Threat is a Joan Jett tribute band, that will redeem things slightly

sorry, Jett Threatt

did my own research and, yes, it is:

JETT THREATT
A TRIBUTE TO JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS
Based out of Cedar Rapids, IA, this band is dedicated to the
#1 Woman in Rock & Roll - the one and only Joan Jett. Joan Jett is an originator, an innovator and a visionary. As the leader of the hard-rocking Blackhearts, with whom she has become a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, she’s had eight platinum and gold albums and nine Top 40 singles, including the classics "Bad Reputation," "I Love Rock N' Roll," "I Hate Myself For Loving You," and "Crimson and Clover."

ROCK FEST: where we just rock

TBA Early 2021 is a good band name

Certainly a distressing fall-off between evening and afternoon slots there on each day, I'm guessing Cowboys From Hell, Dressed To Kill and Fresh Fighters are all tributes too (not going to research it mind).

oh god, how did i miss "Strate Jak It"?

RAP FEST: where we just rap
