Would be nice if could do a discount for 15 and unders. I want to take 2 of my kids (15 and 11) – steep at about £380 for us all to get in!

Melissa Prog Rocker

Any news on the Prog Rock Sunday?
Jethro Tull, Yes, Focus please.

Why would i want to spend £65 on a ticket for a festival featuring no named bands? why not release tickets alongside news of some headliners for a newly founded festival?

ZZ Top and ELP in Hackney?! That’s bizarre!

Andrew Mitchell

I’m guessing all the bands signed to CR’s record label will be putting in an appearance.

Blimey, the ‘Top’ playing the East End! After living in Dagenham for 9 years, finally my wait has paid off!!! It’s about time West London had the joy of crossing the city for a change.

Still no added bands, hope this festival will not be another “Memories of Woodstock”

Didn’t Keith Emerson injure his hand/arm (sorry, very vague) a while back, so the 40th (40th?) anniversry of ELP tour was cancelled…?

Anyway, I’d love to see them!

Are VIP tickets going to be available to purchase. We are coming from California for honey’s bday. He is an avid ELP fan…we would love the opportunity to get some VIP’s. We already have two day tickets. Thanks!

The High Voltage website says that VIP tickets will be available in the new year and that you can upgrade if you’ve already purchased.

ELP reformed, I must be dreaming!!

Jay Brunker

Looking forward to news on the VIP tickets. Since I’m coming from Tejas ( that’s Texas to you Yankees ), a VIP package will be a nice way to tie things up.

David Monch

Any news on additional groups ?

Andy Green
