Memory Man

Starting to belive the annie mac thing. Woefully crap / budget if true. im sure some will enjoy but just really showing that theres no money in the pot for acts

Listened to to it, there is more that she isnt letting on, obviously. must be a collaborative / interative type of performance where her djing is part of a larger thing. Think about it logically a straight up dj set is not going to work in that scenario.

No but think it about it logically and it doesnt make any sense at all when was the last time a DJ set opened a main bands stage at any major music festival, never mind glastonbury? if thats what it is, its completely bizarre programming not to mention very glastonbudget who wants to see someone dj’ing a huge stage at 11:30am at a festival? it must be some kind of different / special collaborative thing or something. Maybe an orchestra or something? i havent minded her over the years but she’s a DJ not a musician.

It will be this an annie mac di set is not opening a main stage 😂 probs glade or something

Bimble inn stock burrow hill, the same as the cider bus

Thanks Matthew for organising! Any helpers would be hugely appreciated 🙏🏼

Are we realistically thinking razz for the likely national show and then hopefully the apolo for people like me who want to see the other stuff billed for the city on the weds that isnt the national? Forum is an easy skip for me that day.

She would only be available for the thursday and thats already stacked so cant see anything being added to the thursday. She is out

Will sell tickets to a demographic that does not frequent efestivals dot co dot uk Its not for me whatsoever but obvious why these acts are booked

Lots of acts will just not take a pay cut to play and this is one of many

I love this idea but cant imagine the block 9 crew would be too pleased They’ve had the notting hill carnival takeover down there but still fairly low key

Spot on as always ben. Your eloquence is admirable!

Exactly. This is why it can only really be cost savings. One stage doesnt ruin your entire experience but its the removal of choice and a venue that offered something slightly different

Anyway its never coming back and i wont forgive them, but whats done is done

They do but its not the same level there is a big, big gulf in stature between playing the emerging talent comp and being booked low down on woodsies or park Panic shack for example played truth stage last year, and would have been a perfect candidate for a williams green show. The smaller stages dont book the same way WG did. Grove played greenpeace, same applies. Both were on the thursday which got them a good crowd which was nice. but neither stage does specifically what WG did. it was the place you caught amyl and the sniffers or yard act before they made the step up.
