    does anyone agree that it is an outrage that the best of Irish talent shall not be appearing at this years WITNESS! No sign of the frames OR damien rice!Along with the poorly choosen name for this years festival things are clearly changing for the worst! None the less I shall be trooping along loyally to the gig in anticipation of an outstanding weekend....always lookin on da bright side!

    This years line up is as good, if not better, than its ever been. Both The Frames and Damien Rice have played the Witnness Festival numerous times, they can't be given a slot every year. Neither have any new material there's no reason why they should have to play. Give other acts a go...

    ummm, giveamanakick are playing and they're just a bit better than either of those.

    nah don't get me wrong it's not as if I feel they are the only one to go and see, i'm just saying they're at the top of the list when it comes to IRISH talent! the line up is pretty amazing...i'm just a fan of a bit of consistancy, beside i've only seen both in action once and that was at last years witness!

    consistent what?The consistent insistance of MCD to book bands who succeed in putting most of the crowd to sleep? Thge Frames should be taken along with Damo and crucified on crosses made from acoustic guitars. DEATH BY SWORDS MAN!!!!!!

    They both suck. Wu Tang and Faithless are there and that's all that matters.

    One would think by that bold statement that you are familiar with they're music, however you don't know what the hell you are talking about!!!!!

    For you to win there would have to have been some sort of battle, however there was no battle, just an ignorant little boy making uneducated statments!

    Excuse me? She states that everybody is entitled to their opinion and then calls me ignorant for expressing mine.

    how can you have an opinion about something that you have never listened to?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    I have though. You were the one to dismiss rap music before properly listening to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 117 ✭✭snoopish


    what?like one song? you have never listened to them properly, you even said this yourself! That was a means of winding you up. I always maintained that I liked some rap music just not all!
