Quick guide for the search
X


  • Wildcard-Search
    With the help of a so-called wildcard you can look for several search words, which have the same word beginning. If you search e.g. for "Typo*", the search will find everything that begins with "Typo" : Typo3, Typoscript, Typocode, Typo3user... etc.
  • Negative search
    If you do not want to find certain expressions in your search result, you can cause this with placing a hyphen in front. Terms containing this phrase are excluded from the search result.
  • Search for user
    It is possible to limit the search result on answers of certain users. In addition to the retrieval query attach still another "user:username" and find the results, which were written by this certain user. If the username could not be found this will be ignored.

Don't forget the Drum'n'bass. Anything goes. But would be nice to see Noisia, Roni Size, Squarepusher, DJ Aphrodite or Wickedsquad, well, Anything. Just don't forget the Drum'n'bass.

Come on were is the Orange spirit.

When a metal band is booked i do not complain, i'm just thinking well someone is happy and so am i because the money that the sold ticket will bring also pays for the bands/artists that i want to see.

I hope that it make sense.

Dude, its not that I want diversity, I'm actually all for it! I havent complained about anything, I just dont agree on you're view of electro-headliner. icon_wink.gif I just think there are other bands that would be more suitable as headliner and would fit my music-taste better. If they were to be headlining I wouldnt complain, but rather be dissapointed. But sure if someone loves them, great for them. The budget on bandbooking is however about the same amount every year, and I thought you knew that the profit Roskilde gets goes to a charity.

Yes i know that the profit goes to charity and that the music budget is the same every year, but what has it to do with me wanting to see Faithless.

Deleted user Faithless are awesome live! I usually don't listen to their records tbh, but their concerts are just great. Would love to see them again, whether they headline or not!

I wrote it because of this, or did I misunderstand?

Well english is not my mother tongue so i can understand that you understood it the other way,

I was trying to say that it is the big names that sells the ticket, not the smaller names so if Roskilde only got the smaller names that you and me like it simply won´t sell alot of tickets.

But yet again i think that it is crazy to use 5 millions each on names like Jay-Z and Kanye West when you can book a really good rock name in the 1 million range like Faithless, i believe that Qotsa is demanding somethiong like 800.000 for a festival gig.

Yeah, I agree on that some bands are not worth the price to be booked, even though they sell tickets. But if they should book a electronic headliner that would attract people, it should either be Prodigy, Daft Punk, Justice, Infected Mushroom or The Chemical Brothers. With the exception of Prodigy the other has pretty slim chance on attend.

Dont get me wrong, I dont say that Faithless wouldnt sell tickets. It sure would! But I would like to see someone else instead. So its all about musictaste-differences. icon_wink.gif

But if you're wish was to become true, they would most likly play on Saturday, since they play Werchter Thursday and Westerpark Friday. As of Sunday, I dont think they play during the day and I dont think they will be the closing act.

Anyway other electronic acts I would love to see:
Shpongle
Boy 8-bit
Pantha Du Prince
2020Soundsystem
Danger
Filthy Dukes

Some electronic acts that i'd like to see would be:

The Twelves (http://www.myspace.com/thetwelves) Also they seem to be in the area at the time

White Pony - Especially after their, in my opinion, great warm-up gig for Nephew @ KB Hallen

Booka Shade - 'cause they're awesome?

Jean Elan (http://www.myspace.com/jeanelan) Would put up a nice show aswell

That's atleast what i find (kinda) plausible and good acts! icon_smile.gif
