Lost Vagueness Festival in Exeter!

[babymoongeese]

Anyone going??

Only been confirmed today and can't find out prices etc yet.

According to Express and Echo ....

Big-name bands could appear in Devon next month as part of a new three-day music festival. Promoters hope the event at Powderham Castle will help fill a void left by the absence of the Glastonbury Festival this year.

Lost Vagueness, the company behind the festival, hopes to attract 10,000 people to camp at the site and claims to be in negotiations with acts including Massive Attack, Basement Jaxx, Kate Bush, Roxy Music and Depeche Mode.

The event is scheduled to run from Friday, June 23, to Sunday, June 25.

Sooooooooooooooooo.........................

It's called the Lost Vagueness festival and you can't find out any details of how to book.

Is this somekind of lost and vague marketing ploy?

Will it work?

 

[Dubversion]

it was in Lewes in Sussex last year, and will be again. This is an addition, not a move

 

[William of Walworth]

Should be good, but can't make it.

Will add the Exeter one to my list, and the other one that Dub mentions too, when that one's confirmed.

That sounds better

When though? and why the addition?

the Lewes one is August - the addition? think about it - it's Glastonbury weekend..

this is getting ridiculous - how many festivals do they think we need to replace glasto??

i think they've made a drastic error in thinking that everybody who goes to glasto will want a full on replacement. some poeple go to glasto because its glasto not because they want a festival.

i predict most of these wont sell out and may go bust.

well much as i thought Lost Vagueness last year was a FANTASTIC weekend, there was nobody there and they must have lost a fucking fortune. so i'm a little suspicious about their chances with this one...
