They accepted the gig, either embrace it and try to gain a few new fans or decline it. Stupid scheduling really. Royal Blood being a warm up act for Niall Horan is not rocket surgery thinking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with these rOcK mUsiC types they sometimes confuse turning up the dials on an amp with being the baddest men who ever lived Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t mind but they’re not particularly ‘rock’ themselves… always considered them a heavyish pop band (especially their most recent offerings) It could’ve been worse for them - they could’ve had the Daphne and Celeste treatment at the Reading festival 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne and Celeste were put in that situation deliberately because it had become a Reading tradition and someone had to be that act. They got to generate publicity out of that Royal Blood just bored the arse off thousands of people and reacted like it was the crowds fault they are boring That wasn't their first appearance at Big Weekend either, they've done it before 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted May 31, 2023 Moderator Share Posted May 31, 2023 Genuine complaint.... Quote Dear Sir or Madam. I am writing to advise you of the attitude and foul language of one of your drivers his badge No is XXXX he collected my wife and I .... He engaged my wife in conversation as she was sitting in the front seat of his car within 2 minutes he had used F**k 3 times in general conversation. He moved his conversation to the Bas**rds in the Tory party blaming them for f**king Covid and how he was pleased that the Bitch Thatcher was dead and how he hoped it was not a “nice death”. My wife was getting upset so I asked them both to be quiet to which he said it’s my F**kin taxi and I will say what I want. He is not a good ambassador for your company and I will think twice before using you again, we use your company at least 7 times a week that will reduce to as and when we cant use Metro or S R C. I await your comments Dear Sir, please realise that in this city, your's is a minority opinion. Good luck with your use of rival companies Please also treat you wife with a little more respect.(We haven't but we are tempted) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I mean, politics aside, that’s a fairly unpleasant way to talk to random strangers! I know it’s just a taxi ride and wouldn’t bother me what the driver said to me if I got to where I wanted, but can kind of see quite a lot of people being uncomfortable with that situation, even if sharing the general political sentiment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
