Hawky Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Well if Bon Iver did pull out that hopefully freed up a little bit of cash for the undercard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawky Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I reckon it'll be the XX undercard, some of the "day&night" acts for the undercard (Sampha etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Bukakula Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Yeah I noticed they had a big support for the Brixton shows. Hoping for SBTRKT, can defo see Sampha playing and possibly gold panda on the same day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishful thinking but I'd love to see Johnny marr pop up, same with alvvays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendy Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 People will always have aslight moan about prices as they are only there to see a few acts, but the great thing with festivals is that you explore and hear and see bands you've never heard of that become your faves, it's all about the adventure.

ghoulieanne Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I've noticed RDB tweeting about Divine Comedy a couple of times this week - maybe they will appear on the line up?? Also would love to see London Grammar on there... they are doing the rounds... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't they making the second stage/ tent smaller for this years fest. I wouldnt expect the format to be staying exactly the same if that is the case. There were already dangerously busy levels for some of those tent headliners in previous years - Crystal fighters and Katy B last year was rammed (don't know if they were 'headliners' though). I would expect more of the traditional headliners up against one another if they have downsized the tent.

I read somewhere on Facebook ((I think)) that the format for the box will be the same as the big top stage and be closing late with late headliners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 They've got a music licence up until 4am on Friday/Saturday nights I think, so yeah I would imagine it's staying the same (or as similar as it can possibly be) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Bukakula Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Anyone think with R&L being so close that we'll get some acts from that announcement? Personally I would love: Flatbush zombies, migos, Noisia, High contrast, Jaguar skills and marmozets to make an appearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circus-Freak Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Seriously, what are Bestival spending their money on? Looking at recent festival announcements, Bestival is surely one of the worst line ups on the circuit. And don't get me wrong, headliners aren't everything. But overall line up is. Id bet they won't sell 20,000 tix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any lineup with Crazy P on it is winning this year. I couldnt recommend them highly enough for when you go if you like a dance. Hoping they will be at whatever festival I end up going to.

Baggins7 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 I went to see the xx in Cardiff last night on the last leg of their European tour and they were incredible. Sounded great, well thought out setlist and amazing stage set up and light show. Will be interesting to see what they bring to Bestival but we should be in for a treat! Any ideas on the next line up announcement? It's all gone a bit quiet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
