Quick guide for the search
- 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.

Maybe we have our first cancellation, because Björk is not performing at this years Balaton Sound festival so is it just a case of lowering the number of concerts or will she also have to cancel her Roskilde gig one week earlier. http://sziget.hu/balatonsound_english/news/bjork_is_out_of_the_sound.13258.html |

Bjork has cancelled the entire summer of festivals It's a massive blow, as Roskilde was lacking in the big names department, i hope they don't bump up one of the sub-headliners to replace her spot. http://www.efestivals.co.uk/news/12/120508e.shtml [This article was edited 2 times, at last 09.05.2012 at 18:49.] |

I hope we will get some big rock band instead for Björk http://festivalseurope.wordpress.com/2012/05/09/bjork-cancels-festival-shows/ According to festivalseurope.wordpress.com have Björk cancels her show at Roskilde Festival. If this true then Roskilde need another headliner instead for Björk |

A lot of female vocalists are available this summer, even though this is very sad news, as she was one of my four must-sees. Possible replacements could be Sinead O'Connor, Fiona Apple, Regina Spektor, Feist or Florence + The Machine. Nothing in the same league of Björk, but there are some ok possibilities out there. |

Sad news, but looking on the bright side this should free up a big chunk of the budget. Let's see what happens now then. |

But hope not for Lana Del Rey The difference is that Bowie cancelled just few days before, which meant Roskidle had to act fast to get a replacement. Roskilde has plenty of time this time around to find something in the same vein as Björk, and as I mentioned, there's a lot of opportunities out there. On the bright side, if they do go with Lana Del Rey, Florence + The Machine, Regina Spektor, Feist or Fiona Apple as her replacement, that replacement won't be as expensive as Björk must've been, meaning there's room for another headliner that's something entirely different. Bad news for you if I know your taste as well as I think, it will probably be an electronic headliner, as this seems to be missing this time around, and there's a couple of opportunities in that genre. |

Bat For Lashes is lurking around Europe about the same time as well. I wonder why Roskilde didn't book these girls in the first place [This article was edited 2 times, at last 09.05.2012 at 21:27.] |
