As there is no Glasto this year we can probably expect a larger than
usual influx of crusties. I wonder if the lineup will be
extended to include dance acts like orbital this year?
Hope so.
I.

1346.2 | | CHEFS::UKARCHIVING | whose file is it anyway? | Thu Apr 18 1996 12:04 | 2 |
| Prodigy will headline one night, Rage Against the Machine another.
If it's dance you want, go to the Phoenix Festival.
|
1346.3 | | CHEFS::FIDDLER_M | The sense of being dulls my mind | Thu Apr 18 1996 12:05 | 6 |
| Phoenix looks ok, and we havent seen the lineup for the Winchester fest
yet...
Mikef - who probably wont be going to any fest this year...
|
1346.4 | Rumour !!!! | CHEFS::RUTHERFORDI | I've been seen with FABIO !!! | Thu Apr 18 1996 12:23 | 5 |
| Black Grape are rumoured to be headlining at Reading this year. Nothing
confirmed though !!!

Not too sure about them headlining at Reading. They have just been
added to the bill for T in the Park though.

Yeah, most of them went home to their rich parents when the winter
turned out colder than expected. Hopefully they'll stay there instead
of continuing to give decent travellers a bad name.

| > decent travellers
Isn't that a contradiction in terms?
Stuart
|
1346.9 | Oh alright then......No it is not!! | CHEFS::CROSSA | Insane in the membrane! | Thu Apr 18 1996 14:10 | 3 |
| Rather depends on ones viewpoint I suppose.
Stretch.
|
1346.10 | | CHEFS::FIDDLER_M | The sense of being dulls my mind | Thu Apr 18 1996 14:13 | 10 |
| There were a lot still out there during the worst of the weather...
The ones that I met were decent sorts, although if I ever catch the
ones who took the petrol from my car...
For anyone who lives out to the west of Reading, try tuning in to Tree
FM, 87.7, the protesters pirate radio station. Very interesting, and
they play some cool tunes now and then.

1346.11 | C'mon on then Stuart. | CHEFS::CROSSA | Insane in the membrane! | Thu Apr 18 1996 14:31 | 6 |
| I was not going to get into a crustie/traveller/protestor thing but if
Stratto/anyone comes on with a Sc*m journalist viewpoint I might have
to....
Stretch.

1346.12 | | CHEFS::STRATFORDS | Groovy, Laidback & Nasty | Thu Apr 18 1996 14:51 | 17 |
| Stretch,
Why do you automatically assume that I am going take the opposite
stance to yourself on everything? Just because I have in the past, on
the odd occassion, differed from your own 'moderate' viewpoint...
Anyhow, I will not profer an alternative viewpoint to the travellers
situation just so that you can keep you arguments/ranting quota up for
today.
The only observation I will make is that if I catch any of them
jostling and intimidating old people in Sainsburys during the festival
again, they will get twatted again.
Stuart

1346.13 | | CHEFS::FIDDLER_M | The sense of being dulls my mind | Thu Apr 18 1996 14:56 | 6 |
| re Sainsburies...
this is an age old problem, I can remember when the offenders were
heavy metal freaks in the mid eighties...

| Its true! Slightly partisan in its approach to the issues perhaps...
but can make for entertaining listening.

of Chumbawumba.

| I would guess that Ash will amonsgt the current fave raves as well, and
positively no Police records (well at least not on the turntable
anyway). Any other artists will just get by-passed I s'pose.

| The guitarless Stone Roses are due to headline the third day provided
they can find a replacement for John Squire.
Wonder what Jimmy Page is doing over the August Bank Holiday?

| I'm *thinking* of going, but money is tight (prospect of being out on
my ear real soon). I may only go to one day, if day tix are available
this year on the gate. I have been trying to blagg a guest list pass
from TWP for sunday, but they dont have enough to go round.
Some good stuff happening, but I'm still not keen on the environment.
Anyone know if Alleycat live are hosting any warm-up gigs?
