    It's a shame about the marquee but not really a surprise considering how ****ing terrible most of the stuff on there has been in recent years. Endless Nathan Carter, Coronas, Picture This etc.
    Cant believe they used to have the balls to book Slayer, Massive Attack, Justice etc looking at last years anti-music lineup.

    My favourite ever Marquee gig was Muse/Ash about 20 years ago

    That was actually “Heineken Green Energy” festival, in 2001. Marquee started in 2005.

    I went to see Ash who were the headliners that night, but the support act Muse were dam good.

    Saw Moby at that Heineken festival as well, superb.

    Yup

    Muse releases Origin of Symmetry that day

    Opened with the trifecta of ‘Hyper Music’ ‘Citizen Erased’ and ‘Micro Cuts’

    Unreal
