Mighty Hoopla 2023

[Music]

I’m going for the first time! Think just for the Saturday, can’t wait

 

[passthatdutch]

Confidence Man is SUCH a good choice for the Sunday line up. They were amazing at Koko on Friday night and very much feel like their fanbase is still growing and would appeal to the Hoopla crowd.

 

[Sheena]

Confidence Man is remarkably high up the line up list for a band that has seemingly never had a hit anywhere (yes, I looked them up, yes I'm old...)

Never had a hit anywhere? They won A Song For Moppy, how DARE you!

@Suomi

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I get the sense that in a 40 minute slot they probably wouldn't get to Rame, in all it's Enigma-esque glory.

Oh I know

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Never had a hit anywhere? They won A Song For Moppy, how DARE you!

@Suomi

Means nothing. Almost everyone who's won ASFM is apparently DEEPLY ASHAMED and doesn't want to talk about it

 

[Rita]

Is JESS GLYNNE taking part?

Paging @dUb and @Jark

 

[Jark]

they asked but she's terribly busy helping out at the food bank that day.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Is JESS GLYNNE taking part?

Paging @dUb and @Jark

I've been informed that they'll be throwing her on the bonfire because almost everyone organising the event has heard that she's sick and evil

 

[Rita]

Sorry she is UNIVERSALLY HATED by the gays. SOMEONE could make a mint filling his hospital bed with rotten fruit and veg to throw at her before the gays pop her on the cross for the terrible, terrible things she has done in her life.

We're all lining up bottles of piss to throw RIGHT NOW!

 

[octophone]

I would worry for any festival that has CLEA that far up the bill.

That's not actually true. They're mostly dead due to what @Suomi described as 'probably unrelated reasons'.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I would worry for any festival that has CLEA that far up the bill.

It could be worse. It could be Hazell Dean, who'd no doubt be keen to tell everyone how upset she still is about the BANANA INCIDENT or whatever that HEINOUS HATE CRIME was

 

[octophone]

I looked up HiFi Sean - turns out he's the walloper out of the Soup Dragons!

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Also quite tasty these days

Hands off, girls - I saw him first

 

[GinAg (39)]

Confidence Man deserve to be fucking headlining. I cannot wait to see them. I haven't really bothered listening to their studio recordings, but their performances are just pure electro pop energy. Also he's a dish.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Watch that clip and tell me you wouldn't bottom for him after doing a line of anything with her.

 

[Ill Advised]

 

[dUb]

Oh I don't think I can deal with those individuals at ALL

 

[Apoca]

Could you turn down the track a little bit please?

On the whole, this looks like two days of delightful nonsense.

#Justice4The411

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I shudder to imagine what “& MORE” involves (although I’d know if I’d bothered to read the whole thing )

 

[Apoca]

I shudder to imagine what “& MORE” involves

Louis' Top 3 boybands (that didn't make it past judge's house).

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Please God let DIVA FEVER be there

 

[Kratz]

I shudder to imagine what “& MORE” involves (although I’d know if I’d bothered to read the whole thing )

TWO SHOES please

‘y’alright, shoe?’

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

TWO SHOES please

‘y’alright, shoe?’

Oh THEM AS WELL!

 

[octophone]

Rosie Ribbons or GTFO.

 

[octophone]

Actually, no, can't be - she'd be above Clea on the bill, surely...

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Rosie Ribbons or GTFO.

Didn’t she move to Australia to flee the ugly instances of furious ABBA fans flinging dog dirt at it? Summoning @Suomi for full details

 

[Mobster]

Waiting on confirmation of Clea's warmup Asda tour.

 

[Pipo]

That lineup looks absolutely fantastic and I'm so very jealous of each and everyone of you

 

[dUb]

Bognor Weekender this week, I'm actually oddly DEAD EXCITED for it

*hates it and gets all the currently circulating diseases*

 

[Iguana]

Róisín Murphy has been added to the Sunday.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Róisín Murphy has been added to the Sunday.

Oh fucking hell, what a year to not be going.

 

[Tisch]

Have we seen who else has been added to the Sunday??

 

[Sheena]

OMG YES!

 

[Kala]

OMG!

Whose set is everyone looking forward to the most?

Sophie’s?

Rachel’s?

Samantha’s?

No…

 

[COB]

Is that not a breach of her contract with MTV?

 

[Kala]

Is that not a breach of her contract with MTV?

What are they gonna do? Sue her?
