  1. Definitely fancy this again. Need to research reasonably priced digs.
  2. Can’t say I am thrilled by the extra day being added. Anxiety about missing out on camping with mates probably means getting a ticket and trying to get the day off work. Live near enough to pitch up and go home but a bit weird if you can really only leave between 7 and 9pm. Love Bearded Theory but Thurs to Mon is still plenty in a tent in May.
  3. About right on Interpol, not so sure on "Panic Attack"😁. I felt more positive about the festival overall but an interesting perspective and decent read.
  4. Saw a few bits online about long queues to get off the car parks today. Hope it was sorted. We got off early but needed a big sleep when we got home! Great weekend, Sunday highlights for me included Snayx and the excellent three band end to the Pallet stage
  5. Cracking weekend so far. Particularly enjoyed Heartwirms, Snapped Ankles and Pale Blue Eyes. Don't get the appeal of Elvana but each to their own. Think Interpol must be the smallest crowd i have seen for a headliner here.
  6. Queued about 40 mins to get in as decided to go early and the gate opening was delayed. No bother though. Excellent first day. Loved Heartworms and glad i stayed on for Queen Bee after Orielles. Big Ed is a fun change. Good that they've put toilets in the Woodland now.
  7. Just packing ready for tomorrow. Probably aiming for late morning so loads of time to get set up and explore the new layout before Fraülein who i am interested in seeing. Hope everyone has a great time.
  8. I had an email from Alt Tickets last week that said please download, print or screenshot your tickets before leaving home to save time in the queue.
  9. I'd be amazed if the van is a problem. They obviously don't want people sleeping in the car park but i'm sure i've always seen work van/transit vans etc park with no fuss so if its obvious you aren't camping in it i'd expect you'll be fine. If you are arriving on Friday a steward should be able to let you know best camping spaces. Walton Woods tends to look busy as its the first one people get to and its nearest the arena but none of the camping is far from the arena entrance really. Have a fantastic time. I have done plenty of Glastonbury as well as EOTR and Green Man and feel very at home at Bearded Theory so hope the same for you.
  10. I noted the free pint and branded "glass" offer for people buying tickets now. Unusual promotion. I wonder if ticket sales are a touch below what they were expecting/hoping for.
  11. Same on the clashes. Finally got tickets at the weekend and now listening to a playlist. It's not helping! Holy Moly and the Crackers one of a developing list of additional bands i'd like to catch.
  12. Very happy with Alvvays and Bug Club. Billy Bragg, PSB and Go Team are great festival picks too. Beth Orton and Anna Calvi are a nice surprise. I get the concerns about direction but there's not many festivals that would have Flogging Molly and Gogol Bordello on and high on the poster.
  13. Can't see the hints but if one of them is Chorlton and the Wheelies i'd take a punt at Badly Drawn Boy being more likely, as I think that's where he lives? Presuming it's not headliner clues that is.
  14. Cracking first lineup announcement for me and has swung me back round to getting tickets. Viagra Boys, Snapped Ankles, Interpol, Numan, Yard Act, Lovely Eggs, She Drew the Gun and Warmduscher are all great fun live, as are Pigsx7 and Bunnymen on their day. Quite a few new things to rxplore Reckon another headliner to come?
  15. Just home, and had a very enjoyable weekend. Of the lesser known bands I’d say Umlauts were the biggest hit for me. Also enjoyed Ciel, El Goodo, Keg and Melin Melyn. Higher up the bill I thought Ezra Furman and Viagra Boys were each outstanding, Arab Strap were as good as i’d hoped for and i’d forgotten how loud and fun TuneYards can be.
