Waterford Music Festival - July 30th 2011

Should be interesting. I noticed on the sign by the RSC under fiddy's name it's very obvious a name has been painted over. I wonder who that was to be.

Assume one of the previous acts that was rumoured that pulled out last minute. I don't think the printed signs have the act going to be announced on them.

Was that you writing on their facebook status just now? I was just replying to you to express my lack of surprise at this latest farcical episode but thought I'd check on here first in case of any news.

So far, I've no interest in going. I'm hoping against hope that the final act will be someone worth seeing but given the way things have already been hyped...and then nothing! I have no confidence in them anymore.

Yup, that would have been me! Their lack of organisational skills probably shows how badly run the event is going to be..

Thought it was being announced on Beat this morning?

Grindylow

Yeah, but they and Beat deleted their statuses hoping that nobody would notice.. major joke!

I tuned in at 8:30 and there wasn't even a mention to say the announcement had been postponed. Maybe I just missed it, but their 'professionalism' so far leads me to think not.

...and don't get me started on that toe-rag Calum Best :mad:

What did they announce before removing it? I heard it advertised on the radio around lunchtime, said to tune into Niall Vinny and Mary for more..

It was on Facebook (now removed) and mentioned on Beat yesterday, that the final act would be announced at 8:30am today.

An update on Facebook at around 3am says that they're leaving the suspense until tomorrow. I assume that means Friday now. They call it an 'amazing addition to the line-up'. It had better be.

I had a couple of posts deleted when myself and a friend offered a better way to run their competitions.

It was a reverse-psychology comment, if I don't wish for it, it'll happen...but you could've saved me that when you replied to my PM a few weeks ago

Like I said on the facebook page...KUDOS!
