Bonaneas Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Thurston Moore > King Gizzard > Carl Barat & Jackals is a tasty wee run in a cosy little tent. Wouldn't look out of place on the park stage, which has been my fave place last few years but looks such a let down this year. Ah well, plenty elsewhere!

Wooderson Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Thurston is (undestandably) caning his new solo record on tour. Not much SY craic from the chap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 That Gizzard/Toots clash is a pisser. As is the Gizzard/Marling clash on Sunday. Toots and Gizzard on Sunday it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toots and Gizzard on Sunday it is. Same for me. Toots is definite for me, especially as i had come to terms with the fact i thought that he wouldn't tour again after the bottle incident the other year.

The thing is I plan to see The Smyths do Queen Is Dead in Williams Green on Sunday afternoon as well but I don't wanna be glued to one tent all day! These decisions man, I love it. What great problems to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Marling one gets me too, my friend. I'm trying not to put myself through it by telling myself that she is wasted on the Pyramid and it would only disappoint. Could depend on whether I squeeze into Williams Green for The Smyths set on Thursday. Time will tell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could depend on whether I squeeze into Williams Green for The Smyths set on Thursday. Time will tell! Its the exact same spot she played last time which is complete madness so I'll be elsewhere. At times it was like there was no one playing on the stage, just background music you hear when the crew are loading out with all the crowd chatting. A song a half in and people are taking the guides from around their necks......... Edited May 30, 2017 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 The Smyths. Not an option. Fakes king gizzard - too early for them, plus they tour every toilet venue in the country 3 times a year. A sunny afternoon and Marling could nail it, given the West Coast vibe of her last two albums. Or she might fall flat on her arse (but not in a Patti Smith fucking animal way). Still, it gets my vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hoping to catch Laura but toots is a surefire whereas she may be lost again. Was really hoping she would be on The Park or Acoustic. Or even the "I didnt ask them for ID" Peel tent. Anyway havent seen The Gizzards crew before and Im taking a strict line of seeing acts Ive never seen before this year over possibly better acts that I have seen.

I'll second that. Seen them at WG in 2015, great fun. They were pretty good at Manchester Ritz too. WG is perfect size for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
