    Well done on the line-up lads, I'm delighted it all came together in the end. Huge acts and I'm sure it will be nothing other than a great success.

    Hopefully the begrudgers will not be too disappointed! :rolleyes:

    Well done again for doing something positive for the region.

    Shane ward is a clever one. I think one more pop based act like him and you'll be getting two different demographics.

    I genuinely hope it works out and you get acts that I'd personally love to see down the line.

    I dont think there have been too many begrudgers on this thread to be fair. The organisers themselves will admit that the journey to get here has been less than ideal but that's to be expected for a first attempt at this. Regardless of the line up you can't please everyone but everyone should want it to be a success cause it could grow over the next few years to be a massive date in the calendar.

    What a ridiculous post

    It will more than likely be a sell out and if you want to stand outside, best of luck to you. Think id rather pay the entrance fee and stand inside with my mates :rolleyes:

    Like the look of it so far, but at least one guitar-driven rock group in the next announcement is a must IMO. Not expecting a Kings of Leon or anything, just somebody different that'll get an even bigger crowd in.

    Why are you so concerned about a group of individuals?

    Noone will pay 55euro for just one band though, they should keep the theme of hip hop and pop.

    Are they more of the same or something a bit different?

    Not my kind of acts at all but best of luck with it. I'm glad it finally all came together.

    Shayne Ward must be stuck for work, AFAIK he was dropped by his record label recently.

    I'm not exactly "so concerned"...it doesn't bother me at all to be honest...

    I'm just glad that this event is going ahead and that I don't have to listen to people around town spouting the "I told you so"....and "useless b@stards" etc etc attitude:D

    It will be the biggest selling point for a lot of people though. At the moment I'm about 50:50 on whether I'll go or not, but if they can get someone like a Paolo Nutini or somebody else mainstream they might be enough for me to give it a shot.

    Also, can I ask if one of the remaining acts is local?

    I wouldnt agree Boooourn, a lot of people may be rock lovers and dont mind listening to Flo Rida etc when they're on the radio. If they announce a large rock band, people will pay that bit more if they are going to also hear other music they are used to listening to ie. flo rida, 50 cent, shayne ward

    +1

    If the last two acts were both ones that I'd half listen to I'd ded go down for a look. Even if it was one act that I like I'd go down see them and soak up a bit of the atmosphere.

    Is there alcohol being sold at the event?

    Ah fair enough, you have a point. I just know if they got someone decent i wouldn't pay the money just to see them, as i can't stand the other acts.
