nikkic Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) Temples and Joe Goddard are the main 2 I'd want to see but they will unfortunately be losing out to clashes with K-Pez and Stormzy. Not actually sure I'll see anything on The Park this year. Edited May 30, 2017 by nikkic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeeroo Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Angel Olsen would be a must see. Clashes with Kate Tempest. AO loses. Julia Jacklin would be a must see. Clashes with Laura Marling. JJ loses. There's plenty I'd watch if I was in the area but I'm not sure if there's much there that will make me want to make the long walk. I'm liking Margo Price though. Good call @Mardy.

JackMcAuley Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 does the park always finish early on a sunday? seems to finish up at around 10pm whereas on friday and saturday its after 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Hamilton Leithauser is the best new addition to the lineup. On Park and a great time too. Last year's AOTY for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 I saw Margo Price recently, would definitely recommend her. Quite like Julia Jacklin too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomViolence Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 I revisit that Hamilton album quite frequently - superb. But I have a lot of love for First Aid Kit too so I'm really not sure what to do! Will probably have to decide on the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the exact same for me. I'd love to see Joe Goddard, Angel Olsen and more than any Sampha. But they are all on at the same times as others I would like to see, and are indivdual sets that I would walk to the park for, and then walk back from the Park straight after to catch others back in the thick of things. Sampha is my biggest disappointment. I could concievably go see him after Chic if I'm willing to see only the last part of Moderat before Justice - but in my head the effort i'd go to for one set isnt worth it when I could be grabbing a bite to eat and getting prepared for the evening whilst catching a bit of Cinematic Orchestra. The same applies for Jain on Sonic, am gutted it looks like I'll be missing her at the same time too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Lanegan and Flaming lips on Friday and Moonlandingz, Sigrid and Songhoy Blues on Saturday Unlike Hall and Oates I can go for that and Margo Price Edited May 31, 2017 by theDBre Margo Price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregfromtheport Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Hamilton Leithauser followed by Mark Lanegan on Friday afternoon can't be a better place to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Hmm, all the acts I know that I like on the Park this year clash with higher priorities for me this year. I'll have to go hang out and discover something new in some down time. That said I tend to spend a lot more time at the Park area grabbing breakfast/in the bars late at night so I'm sure to be there or there abouts for a decent amount of time.

dentalplan Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 At the time I was all about A 1000 Times and thought it towered over the rest of the album but over the past few months the other songs have risen up. It's brilliant - booted the Twiglets right into touch when he fell onto the line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Hmm yeah I hadn't really invested much time into that album before yesterday when I revisited & ended up playing it most of the day. Which was a stupid decision because man clashes with Fujiya & Miyagi who'll be ace too. I do love The Park though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much as I quite like his solo album, it'd be too much to bear to go and see him and not to get any walkmen stuff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think The Walkmen tunes would work with his solo setup. They best come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd let him have a night with her if he promised to reform the walkmen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 The set list from his uk tour was the whole new album plus Alexandra and I Retired from Black Hours. Could do the same with the hour slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
