splinterbungee Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Think that's a great first announcement. I've not been before but think I'm gonna go for this over Festival No.6 which I was also considering. St Vincent, Hot Chip, Goat, Courtney Barnett, Calexico, Matthew E White. Good job, plus there's another headliner to announce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdm22 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Green Man is a great festival. We went last year for the first time and just kept going on about how lovely it was, so much so we bought tickets for Christmas presents for each other before knowing the line-up. Such a nice change not being surrounded by twunts you get at the bigger festivals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonTom Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Oh thats a very very tempting line up! If it was closer, I'd be all over it! Edited February 3, 2015 by LondonTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job, plus there's another headliner to announce I'm doing both, Festival No 6 is amazing but never been to Green Man before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty_dog Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Hi, need a bit of help here, which car park is best and which field for camping? also when do the tickets usually sell out? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Hi, need a bit of help here, which car park is best and which field for camping? also when do the tickets usually sell out? Thanks Orange car park is fine. Short 5 min walk to general camping. Booked tickets this morning once I saw line-up and still plenty to be announced. Actually now more excited about this than Glastonbury at the moment!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Can also recommend Charles Bradley from this first announcement - caught him as part of Daptone super soul review on west holts stage at G last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Looks really good. Green Man haven't recycled a headliner yet have they? Flaming Lips would be nice as they're around near the time but might be a bit much to ask for the fest to rebook them already. Beck is certainly around at the time and the only appropriate festivals left to announce slots he could take had him last year. I'd put money on it being Beck.

I think Joanna Newsom topped the bill early on when it was really small and again a few years later, but agree completely that thus far they have done really well for unique top 3s. Neither Hot Chip or St Vincent are 'traditional' Green Man in the sense of Feist, Ben Howard, Kings of Convenience topping the bill, so it's interesting to see where they'll pitch the third. Personally Manics Holy Bible show would be ideal, but I suspect it'll be more acoustic leaning than that. Or maybe Ride? Is Laura Marling popular enough? Wild Beasts? Belle and Sebastian are doing the rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Death Cab for Cutie for the last headliner perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 I have a feeling Bore-a Marling will be the final headliner, Flaming Lips or B&S would be nice, Laura looks like their bread and butter, something for the regulars.

timeforheroes Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Beck would be great. Do we assume Calexico and Goat are 2nd headliners? It's difficult to tell from past announcements isn't it? Presumably Courtney Barnett will be a high profile slot because it's a UK exclusive. I reckon when the albnum comes out that will look a real coup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
