You were right! According to their latest Facebook post, the aftermovie will arrive in November. Can't wait for it! You can also send your aftermovies to Sziget here, I think the most interesting parts will feature in the official aftermovie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice article, Noeliam! My choices would have been M83 for A38, Sigur Ros for Main, Jay Lumen for Colosseum, Deluxe for Europe and Teapot Industries for Lightstage, so we agree on 3/6. You also took a photo of mine for Teapot <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see Jay Lumen though, but the experience of what happened that night with John Digweed was surreal (especially the rain)! What would be your pick for World Music Stage? Thanks for the photo, I will give you the credit now, I had forgotten who had taken it. (the panoramic, right?)

amfy Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 I also loved the article. There was no overlap is our favourites but I thought you captured the flavour of the festival really well. I didn't get to all of the stages, maybe because it was my first time. We mainly stayed between the main stage and a little triangle between The World Stage, The Blues Stage, and The African/Reggae/Latin stage. on the main stage I loved The Chemical Brothers just as I knew I would, Tinie Tempah because he made such a brilliant effort and it really was a tremendous show with fantastic movement and atmosphere in the crowd, and Bohemian Betyars - who I had never heard of but who define the phrase 'love what you do' - they enjoy themselves so much that they totally take the crowd with them - so much fun for early afternoon! The World Stage was our revelation of the festival and we saw some amazing stuff there - but I would have to pick out the Pannonia All Stars from the final night - brilliantly lively Cuban Ska - a real 'End Party' - tremendous stuff - but special mentions must go to Yiddish Twist, Soviet Prim, Malasanars.....oh too many to mention. ...but what you bring out in your article is that the real stars are the people, just coming together from all over the world and making a world party, especially just after Brexit here in the UK, I totally fell in love with this vibe.

Thank you for your compliments I try to write at once, just about how I feel (that's why some sentences may seem weird, I rarely read again to correct). Sziget wouldn't be the same without its szitizens indeed and for your first year, you did great, the world music is one of the most underrated stages. They were barely 500 people for Buika during Rihanna. you should've seen it the years before, it was way more beautiful that the tires.

Uncle Liam Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Absolutely correct about the old world music stage. I really have no idea why they moved it. I used to love sitting down there for a beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's the panoramic one but I didn't say that for the credit, I'm just happy people like that photo and even the band itself shared it on their fb page! Anyway Enzo Avitabile for World Stage, a huge neapolitan party! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetime Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) Nick cave as headliner? Touring America until the end of June, so will be around Europe for the late summer festivals I would of thought. That would make me very happy I have to say.

ilbeyene Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 Nick Cave would be brilliant, but unfortunately he doesn't seem to fit the headliner the "new direction" of Sziget is looking for. His 2013 headlining gig at Sziget was brilliant, my favorite sziget concert ever (sharing the 1st position with Faith No More in 2009). Maybe a 19:30 show before a more popular headliner like this year's Sigur Ros-Muse? That would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilbeyene Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 The acoustic of A38 maybe won't help his sound, but would be a perfect solution for me. Only Metallica playing against him on the Main Stage at the same time would take me far from a Nick Cave concert in the A38 tent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard that it was horrible for Dropkick Murphys last year (and Knife Party were shit because of no bass). What does it depend on?

No never to my recollection, since I've been there. But I saw @ilbeyene in 2015 and 2016 (twice on the road wandering and one time at the Teapot Industries concert). I also saw him crowdsurfing on the screens I'll try to do smth more official so that we could meet and drink beers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetime Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Something a bit random. Did anyone use the festipay app last year? Just come across it and would be better than the queuing, did it have any glitches? Would work even better if you could get a card code before the festival.

Sietseo Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Pearl jam has already been comfirmed for pinkpop festival in The Netherlands. Would be an awesome headliner as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiohead's leak has been confirmed (with last confirmations best kept secret and werchter). That's the end of the list then, I hope they can still add something for august. Radiohead and I don't care about anything else on the main stage (well, except for The XX). Edited October 28, 2016 by Noeliam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
