I saw you wandering round Block 9 once. You stood out like a confused Gandalf at a toddlers birthday party. 

Gandalf's always in charge of the fireworks at toddler's birthday parties.

He wants to keep 'em locked in a tin then. His firework security is lacking at best.

ou know what I mean though? If I was to say to you "Let's go to Mad Dave's Metal Bar", you'd imagine what was being played and may, or may not, be doing with it.

I wish there was a Mad Dave's Metal Bar!

I'm looking at heading NYC Downlow on Thursday after Rhythm of the 90s as to avoid any Friday onwards clash. Thursday night is going to be ace this year.

It was really good last year, not too busy but enough people that there was a party atmosphere

I imagine (with some prior warning) that every venue in Block 9 plays 'banging house tunes'. 

Can't be doing with it

 

Another vote for Mad Dave's Metal Bar. Could it be next to Gloomy Derek's Goth Cave? I would like one of those too.

That name needs work.

FIFY!

Sorry if I haven't looked back through all the pages but did Emily not say at some point last month that we would have the stage splits in a couple of weeks? then an announcement a week from then?

 

[BlackHole2006]

Stage splits will almost cerrainly be released at the end of May/start of June. From now until then - I think we'll get a new area announced each week.

I think there is a chance we will get 2nd poster earlier then lineup times end of May.

[Wellyboot]

I hope you're right, Fuzzy. Probably my favourite area. Block 9 doesn't really float my boat, so I'd like something to get my teeth into

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I suspect there'll be something else before the weekend, but it won't be a biggie - Kidz Field or something.

[merago]

The Common maybe?  They seemed ready to get their announcement done the day before the poster.  Surely by now they must be about ready to burst having kept it in all this time?

Yes probably my fave too, and I suspect that only one or two of the acts on the poster were Avalon-bound, so plenty more to surprise and delight us for Avalon stage yet to come.

[FuzzyDunlop]

I'd love the WH to announce - like they did in 2010 and 11 (AHTT)

The glade is my favourite area. I'd take that too

[Memory Man]

The Common is my guess.

[Gnomicide]

Avalon Twitter account has come out of hibernation today. Doesn't mean much in itself but could be a clue. Also recently seen tweets from T&C, Glade and The Common so maybe one of them.

Got a feeling it might be Theatre & Circus. They've been very active on Facebook lately. 

[Nobody Interesting]

I am going for a reverse of 2016 announcement schedule with the same gaps.

27 April (Wed): Silver Hayes
29 April (Fri): The Common
2 May (Mon): Leftfield
4 May (Wed): Avalon
7 May (Sat): Theatre & Circus
10 May (Tue): Block 9

So
Block 9 - 18th April
T&C - 21st April
Avalon - 24th April
Leftfield - 26th April
The Common - 29th April
Silver Hayes - 1st May

 

Thank you to The Thingy for the information - #AHTT

The Glade never fails me... 

Already started with Sasha & Digweed too. Its the one area I go to without looking at the line, if nothing appeals on the big stages.

 

 

[dentalplan]

Not an announcement but could perhaps get some information from Neil and certain eFests members attending the ETC final on Saturday.

[sisco]

Probably nothing but Avalon just tweeted good morning lovely people. (I'm just hoping really)

I replied asking if they had anything for us today and they liked it.

Turns out they liked every reply though so
