I'm off to tramlines this weekend. We've loads planned for Sunday, but got a few gaps Friday and Saturday. Anyone any recommendations from the line-up? Cheers in advance.
First time I have actually looked at the line up for this year having just seen your post and it actually looks really good. Kasabian are the best band I have seen live but I know the line up for them is a little different now from when I last saw them.
Saw them at Sheffield O2 Academy late last year with Serge as the front man. Still excellent and I'd deffo recommend seeing them.
https://tramlines.org.uk/line-up/ Just looked at the line up. I would go see Sigrid who's a very good singer from Norway. Russell Kane is a funny bloke. James are a good act for nostalgia.
I’m going. Kids have told me Sam Fender, Kasabian and Bedroom High Club. I’m up for Madness which, annoyingly is the same time as the Abba party.
Just seen that Ian Brown is on. Not come across him for years. What will he do ? Old Roses tunes ? I was never a great fan but admire artists having huge cult followings
Acts I've seen out of the line up and quick verdicts if it assists, depends on your tastes though: James: good live act, get the crowd going Shed 7: Ok -ish Kasabian: Awesome (but it was pyramid stage at Glasto - with old lead singer) probably still are awesome Vaccines: pretty decent Madness: childhood heroes, bit underwhelmed, dialled it in Reverend: seen loads of times, always good value, especially on home turf Lady leeshur: Ok if you like that sort of thing Kelis: better than I was expecting Scouting for girls: MEH
he’s got a new album out, released about 5 or 6 now actually since the roses split, usually throws a couple of roses tunes in the set
Not my cup of tea but Self esteem usually put on a good show and with her being local can imagine will draw a good crowd. If you're into craft beer and want a quick break from the festival then I highly recommend popping into pangolin craft beer shop for a pint. Just 1 min walk from the park.
Little Man Tate are always entertaining, saw them at their reunion gig a few months ago and they were bang on form
I thought I’d seen he was ? The Kooks and Pigeon Detectives were on same stage. Have I seen another year ? Doh
