Amy Lawn Posted October 29, 2017 Report Share Posted October 29, 2017 If it was an LCD headline show in Manchester in a proper venue like the Apollo, I'd 100% be there, because they're pretty much the best live band going. But as young Will has noted, a London festival is an expensive outlay for a band I've seen two summers in a row, and there's always potential for a shite crowd, shite sound, and a relatively crowd pleasing setlist that avoids deep cuts which would set it apart from the other shows.

We don't work with those who do big billy "economical with the truth". I thought you might have smoothed that over with them now. Anyway there is a press launch party for APE tonight at 6pm - "exclusive launch party for the first chance to see who will be playing" "the majority of the festival lineup including the two remaining headliners" Doesn't make it clear if it will be an embargoed release, now I've just read the email again.

It was in the bar at the bottom of Centrepoint Tower (is that still there? :unsure:), and Mani and Edith Bowman were stood behind me, and i think Edith was quite new to Radio 1 at the time. So no, I wouldn't have been going in any circumstances. I avoid industry beanos like the plague as a rule.

finn_with_1_n Posted October 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Although this link isn't working, a quick Google search tells me that both LCD Soundsystem and Bjork are confirmed to headline All Points East Festival, so I assume that means the first weekend https://www.list.co.uk/article/97022-lcd-soundsystem-and-bjork-to-headline-all-points-east-festival-in-london-find-out-how-to-get-presale-tickets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingcrawler Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) Ooft. Three very strong days there. Was hoping FJM would be saved for the second weekend as I don't think there's enough for me to want to go down for the first but a really strong lineup for this.
