Cheers mate. I can see anywhere to enter it, I assume you have to wait for the tickets to drop?

Anyone know how to get the artist presale for AF? I am signed up to their mailing list but not received any emails.

Well shame I missed it. Still think they would destroy a set in Woodsies.

How have Parcels still never been booked? Would be to much to ask for a night time slot on a smaller stage but their live show would go down a treat anytime of day in Woodies.

Parcels, Baxter Dury

D Hall & J Oates Parcels (main stage) Outkast Do Nothing Tyler, the Creator FEET Daft Punk (main stage) Rolling Blackout Costal Fever Hobo Johnson Led Zeppelin Childish Gambino Fleetwood Mac Bakar (not sure if he has played or not) Mellah And would have been Mac Miller!

Yea the crowds getting into Skindred were bad but that was mainly because people latch onto the back of venue crowd to get away from the queue and make no attempt getting further forward. We ended up in the moshpit and I would say I got more battered and bruised standing at the edge as people pushed passed us. There was quite of space by the front for sure. I will say though the crowds last year for Fat Boy Slim at the Gas Tower felt 10x worse. We were trying to get through for Brass Against on Truth and we were penguin stepping from way over the tracks into The Common. Everyone had just stopped at Gas Tower and left like a meter wide gap for everyone else if they were not there for FBS.

Panicking I am going to forget something.

Don't want to rain on your excitement but his performances are not always that great. We caught him on NBA Leather tour last year with Action Bronson and we all agreed it was just a bit flat, nothing really to get the crowd going. In all fairness seemed like most the crowd was waiting for Action but most of us knew his back catalog and still felt the same.

What time you reckon you will get through the gates if you are leaving at 5 am Wednesday from London?

I got 5 am Wednesday for London in the resale and nothing yet.

Keep cool Rodders.....

Still it is mostly just the hit singles with a bit of new material. Other than the band growing a personality, I am not sure how much you could change to spark peoples enjoyment. It is a great atmospheric track IMO and they go straight into Brianstorm to lift the crowd, I like the choice personally.

Wunderhorse low down on The Woodies line up are fantastic and the debut album is a great listen start to finish IMO.

Out of curiosity what would people like to change in their setlists that will be so called snorefests? Looking at their setlists, they play pretty much every big single they have released minus some of the bigger ones from the first record i.e. Sun Goes Down, Fakes Tales as well as no Mardy Bum or Ritz from that record but pretty much everything else is there. They play 1 sometimes maybe 2 from TBH+C and only 4 from a new record they are touring. Humbug and Suck It & See which also seem less popular only have the singles played in most instances and forgotten about. Obviously AM gets rinsed but that was their most popular as mentioned above. I think it is more the idea of the Arctics that has got stale for most without them realizing it because of the nostalgia attached to the earlier material. Maybe as well as mentioned above people just want a different setlist with just more of rotation but then we would just get moaning from the otherside of the argument, "they don't play the hits" which is all they have done IMO. My favorite records are SIAS, Humbug, TBH+C and The Car, I know for sure I couldn't really give a shit if they added When The Sun Goes Down back to the line up but just one of Secret Door or That's Where You're Wrong etc would make the setlist for me regardless of what else they played. Oh and Certain Romance wouldn't go a miss.

28th is the Wednesday after Glasto.

Partey was found not guilty on a technicality and they couldn't press charges over here I believe. I may have that wrong but that is how I remember it.

They seemed happy to have the pressure off by the looks of it, they were having a blast. And they had me shaking down my best moves which I can only imagine helped.

Easy Life played on Green Peace just after their Pyramid set last year as well, wasn't secret mind as it was on the poster but there was about 20 people there.
