Richard Dawson Thursday is a bit of a suprise ain't it? Subbing BPB then? New Dad in the tipi maybe? Edit: praps should have read the thread first:-)

Odd they haven't even hinted at more additions by now though innit. In fact there hasn't been a single " ...and more to come" at any point has there? 21 acts down is a lot but would only be the loss of say the folly or the boat.

"full line up"? Maybe reading too much into it but could that be it after all?

So it does. The first two gigs not listed on various sites for some reason.

Melt-Banana starting a UK tour on the Sunday of EOTR weekend, wonder if they're a possible for the Friday or Saturday? High time we had the second drop really

Late night big top headliner is the main bottleneck innit, quite often gets to the one in/one out stage. Used to be bad queues for the late night tipi/secret sets too but last year seemed easier or maybe I just got lucky. The Boat you need to get there early for a good view if there's something you really fancy. Oh and closing the folly between acts always causes a big queue too I guess. Rarely felt the garden too packed to enjoy, can be a pain leaving if you're trying to rush to another stage as a popular set ends I guess, tis what it is. None of the above ever really bothers me tbh so I guess it's acceptance, there's always something else to see.. queues for food are more annoying for .e and again, last year was fine for that.

BPB headlining the Thursday ain't he.

Can't see it now, we have our 4 headliner's, she ain't subbing is she. Gonna get tickets for her piece hall gig personally

When is the second announcement generally? Any guesses/wishes? Don't think we can expect many if any more biggish names really...A couple from these would do me... Amen Dunes (would be absolutely made up with this, decent chance I reckon) Hamish Hawk King Creosote Ducks ltd Flyying Colours Reds, Pinks and Purples Man of Moon Pale Blue Eyes HMHB

Yeah played an afternoon slot in the big top, was fantastic. Would love to see him on the garden, that alone would have me buying a ticket

Liking the comeback album by American Analog Set...wonder if they'll tour

King Creosote got a new album coming, has he ever been back since the very early days? Would be a nice addition for me

Would love that...dates are close enough for it to be a possible too. Pretty sure I've heard a few tracks 'between the music' at EOTR too, which we know Simon personally curates. Thursday headliner would do me just fine. Somehow doesn't quite feel like an eotr type booking though does it

I just flicked through the yearly review thread on here for that year and she was getting pelters, I was there that year but pretty sure I missed her completely

I find myself listening to that Julie Byrne album a lot... wouldn't mind her coming back... although seem to remember she got terrible reviews last time

Bill Ryder Jones nailed on for a garden slot with a new album coming I reckon, 1st single is lovely.

Glad we avoided this heat tbh. Would have been too much. Feel sorry for the lads taking the stages down etc

Ah actually, he says an 8 date tour in the spring so ...

He mentioned it on his bandcamp community section

Yeah I'm hoping for The Reds, Pinks and Purples...he says he's touring the UK next year so hopefully he'll come late summer. A nice afternoon slot in the folly or opening the garden

Dream weather considering what we were expecting. Touch too hot for me Sunday if anything but I'll take that every time. Thursday rain was no problem really, site held up well

I thought they were allright tbh. Was worried about the lack of urinals at first but don't think it made much difference in the end, rarely queued more than a moment or two.

Great video

It's a weird line up this year isn't it? I don't think you can really deny it's a bit light on established names...and yet work your way through the clashfinder and there's barely an hour when you haven't got a tough choice between a couple of absolutely great sounding bands. If the weather plays ball and some of the upncomers really rise to the occasion I think this could end up being a vintage year. I wonder if there'll be noticeably less people on site...with all the tickets still available on twickets... Really buzzing for it now

And yeah, it's pretty quiet everywhere really. Never tried quiet camping.
