Me too, some fun bands announced so far
and the venue looks great!
Fucked Up are playing which is unexpected, but, most welcome.
It's in a flipping Zoo,
what more can you for?
I've got myself an early bird ticket.
Ostrich?
Penguin?
Flamingo?
An early bird ticket?
Are you planning to go ape? I hope they aren't lion about the line-up.
GEDDIT!?
Out of interest,
Who else would you like to see or do you think will be added?
no idea who'll be added
but they need some more summery and poppy acts really
not too sure about the drum n bass aspect either
seems like a curious mix
Yeah, there is plenty of pretty old school
drum n base.
it will be interesting to see how it's arranged, will it be drum n base late everyday or the opposite to readings metal sunday - just a day of drum and base?
For some reason
this is the Festival that I think will nosedive and get cancelled due to poor sales.
Agreed...
something has got to give this year and i'd say this is the weakest, most generic line-up of the summer so far.
but it's at a zoo!!
A ZOO!!
teh fact that there's only about three posts on their forum is a bit of a worry
There's a thing about that on the Latest News
"Zoo8 Forum Problems
We are aware that there is a problem with people signing up and being able to use our forum.... We will get this problem rectified shortly so please be patient......
8/4/08"
Hopefully that's the only reason for the quiet forum!
While admittedly it's not the best line up ever, I think there are some far worse line ups at other festivals this summer. While I can see it falling victim to the over-saturation of festivals this year, I hope it doesn't because I'm really tempted to go!
my friend is playing there so i'll go if i he gives me free passes
but besides that, i don't actually care that much about the line up. it looks like a fun and sweet festival, which is what i'm after this summer
It will only be pulled
if all the people who are thinking of buying tickets don't for fear of it getting cancelled!
zoo dollars
No danger of it being cancelled
The forum is ruined hence the lack of post there.
This will be the suprise festival of the summer I think.
Surprise
because the gorillas are caged rather than running about like at most other festivals?
looks like i am going to this
wooooot
you can watch the
young knives
omg that must be a festival exclusive!
Think they maybe spreading a weak line-up a bit too thinly...
8 stages? Really.
there's a zooo!!
