LCD Soundsystem....

[CaledonianGonzo]

God our group has doubled in size last year, with some newbies thrown in into the bargain.

I'm not really a fan of appearing rude, but something's gonna have to give.

[Hutchmaster]

I remember waiting half of Wolf Alice at TITP, including Moaning Lisa Smile which was the one song I was looking forward to hearing all weekend, all because my mates wouldn't hurry up. From that day on I vowed to think "feck 'em" when it comes to festivals and just venture off by myself.

[jparx]

I just lay down some ground rules when we first arrive to festivals. Set up a few meeting points on the major stages, so if a few people are planning to see the act they will likely bump in to each other, meet up a few times throughout the day as long as everyone has a gap in their schedule, then meet up at a certain place after the headliners so we can all bimble around together sampling the nightlife. Aside from that, it's every man for themselves.  Thankfully, my friends all have a similar mindset so it works out well.

would be amazing if she wasn't clashing with Beck  so for me Beck it is! although LCD ON THE SUNDAY YASSSS

[Hutchmaster]

Words can't describe how happy I am there's no Bat for Lashes clash.

[jparx]

Best bit of news for me! Incredible way to end the weekend, particularly if they close with the same 5 tracks as they did at Coachella.

so surprised by her positioning - must've totally overestimated her appeal, although likewise in being ecstatic over it as i now get to see her

To be honest I was surprised by the suggestion she'd headline the stage, didn't think she was big enough for it myself. Panicked for nothing in the end then!

she tweeted 'sundaynight' so i assumed that meant headlining, or at the least subbing a stage, and headlining the Park seemed such a good fit for her. but yeah, can't complain at all! not arsed about ELO myself so will be in the JP at that time. just hope the crowd isn't too sparse due to everybody being at the Pyramid (although i doubt it'll be half as bad as previous Dolly and Lionel years)

Sometimes I omit the first five words. Otherwise you get 'oo I'll come with you. I'll only be a minute!'

Actually, sometimes I omit all the words, and just get "lost" in the crowds.

[Festival Liam]

Anybody else contemplating a sprint from Grimes to see LCD? Can catch half an hour of her and not miss the start of LDC. How big will the crowd be do we think? I don't want a shit spot.

UGH 

[WS_Jack_III]

What are my options then. Are they only doing festival shows? Not missing EWF, been wanting them for 3 years. Worst clash ever.

[karaseen]

Sunday is CLASHMAGEDDON for me. LCD/EWF/Basement Jaxx/Cyndi Lauper?

[Odessa]

Absolutely made  up they've  got a 90 minute set instead of 75. Also good they've ended up on the Sunday and not Friday, cos the Sunday is really lacking in terms of acts for me so glad I have  my favourite act of the weekend saved til the end.

just noticed the 90 minute set myself  so good. this is gonna be such a great way to round off the live acts of the weekend

[Calvin Klein]

Definitely going for Grimes, sprint to the Other for LCD's last hour.

[gorfield]

due to lack of anything else i fancy... i may go to this... only know 1 song really!!

where do i start?

[willsnewman]

Probably try and catch the first 20 minutes of grimes and then squash my way to the front of LCD. I'm so happy it's 90mins

I can't believe we'll ending our Glastonbury with this. I've been to a fair few festivals at this point, and this will easily be the best 'final moment' of any of them.

I think that field will just be a giant love-in at that point!

I know - 90 minutes! That's at least 3 of their own songs and a Bowie/prince medley
