All Activity

Yeah that's true. Maybe they agreed not to announce her until later so BST get a bigger sales period. Or maybe I'm clutching at straws.

But as noted on another thread, secret sets tend to be by acts with a preexisting relationships to the place - the 'friends of the festival' types.

What a wonderful idea to give a description to every act and a link to music. Equal weight to each too. why don’t others such as Acoustic or Avalon do this?

thank you. glad im not the only one. starting to feel a bit crazy lol

Not beyond the realms of possibility. She's got a bunch of US tour dates until 21st June, then she's in Dublin on 3rd July. Also headlining BST later that month. So active, playing festivals, and in the right part of the world at just about the right time...

I agree there could be a surprise. Actually can’t believe Sugababes are 4th, after the crowd TLC pulled with their one song the Babes and their full arsenal of bangers will pack the place out.

I'll need to check it out. I liked his debut, but my attention sort of wandered. I used to live near him and would see him about all the time.

Aye, it's well known that English clubs really care about European Mickey Mouse cups (with some exceptions) We already know Liverpool's next manager, time for a meme:

BELL

Decent summary I think 👍

Some bands that are on Kalorama and were already on BBK, would possibly not be on Mijas, like Massive Attack, Jungle, Overmono... So, i think Kalorama is Safe. Maybe they put LCD or The Smile in Madrid or other Spanish city.

I have no competition updates other than I’m drunk and hoping for an Efest win….love you guys!!!

I've been obsessed with the Unpeople ep the last few days, missed them last year but can't wait to see them now. Potential to get huge if this ep is anything to go by

There's been a second Tony's winner, 3 more to go! Stay delusional guys, keeping everything crossed for everyone. also as a side note, I'm originally from Sittingbourne, not quite Medway but it's funny how there's so many of us from round this way. Good music & festival taste around here!

They said they can't give too much away but Chris Martin is doing the trapeze

I think its probably the only celebration like that as the alternatives will mostly be music orientated. I usually opt for the opening ceremony as its a good place to gather pals and others there who we want to meet up with but there's also usually lots of good DJs on. I'd also argue it might be a good chance to go explore the south east corner.

Iam hoping for Stevie nicks churnups slot ....I haven't checked any dates so don't know if it's even possible or whether she's an exclusive somewhere else 🤣

Absolutely gutted, we're on holiday when Shindig is on!! Think it's probably a case of giving up on this year and getting two others sorted ahead of next year now. It doesn't sound promising at all

I believe that part of it comes from the World Cup in 1986, which was in Mexico. I think it might have been the first time a UK audience would have seen it. Hence we coined the term "Mexican Wave"

wait - is this genuinely called a Mexican Wave in the UK or are you just taking the piss? In the states we just call this The Wave 🤣

ALARM

Disgusted? Really? It's a slightly underwhelming festival line-up, not mass genocide.

As a massive fan of Withered Hand, I'm used to waiting ages for new music - just his 4th album in 15 years, hardly prolific! Worth the wait though IMO - the most underrated songwriter in Britain.

I saw it at the West End last week. Absolutely brilliant. I was blubbing by the end.
