    I think the tickets are often snapped up before the alerts are even sent out… best thing to do, is open up a web browser, and download an addin to automatically refresh the web page. I used one for chrome. If you do a Google search you’ll find the addin. Set the refresh to 15 seconds and watch the screen for an hour or two. Worked for me this year and last time I was looking for greenman tickets. 

    Thank you so much! This worked like a charm.

    also any decent psych or indie, or general must sees?

    Dactyl Terra on Friday are Psych.

    Stumbled across them in a bar in Cardiff a few years ago and asked someone what they were called. They said Terradactyl but backwards. Took me another year of searching for Lytcadatrret and thinking it was a terrible name for a great band until I found them again.

    Thank you for the screenshots and the clashfinder.

    From experience how long do the queues tend to be around 1pm on the Thursday? I'd like to see Wesley Gonzalez at 2:15pm, will an hour and a half be enough to have bag searched, wrist band exchanged and get to the tent?

    Almost certainly not unfortunately. The wrist band exchange is an absolute shambles.

    There were more Settlers this year than I've seen before. 2019 was the first time the allowed people to camp on the field by the bar and there were even more this year.

    A couple of tips for next year. I saw Keg and English Teacher play yesterday and they would both be excellent bookings for Rising. Keg in particular were such fun and would absolutely smash it on that stage.

    Another tip is Early Mornings who were like a cross between Lovely Eggs and Dry Cleaning.

    Great recommendations - enjoyed what I've heard so far.

    Also loved Ezra, Brakes and Felice in Tipi after hours - don't forget SnakeWagon though, shambolic and raucous in the best way!

    That was my first year. I asked The Low Anthem if they were doing any surprise sets and they kept banging on about Snake Wagon, but I was oblivious to what they were getting at so eventually they just told me.

    Being down the front for the Felice Brothers at the Tipi was also an all time festival highlight.

    Lynks is a good shout. Reckon Dry Cleaning might be a bit too big. 

    My favourite secret set over the past few years was DUDS back in 2018. 

    Other than the year Ezra Furman played about three (?) secret shows (the covers one was best); I'd say either Warmduscher in 2018 (I missed Black Midi) or Scalping last time out.

  7. Of the Truck line up I hope Shame, Sports Team, La Roux, The Big Moon, The Murder Capital, The Orielles, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, Working Men’s Club, Just Mustard, Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard and Orchards make the transfer. Any few of these would be welcome and a few have played the festival before.

    And The Streets and Ian Brown to headline would be perfect.

  8. Just got back from Green Man and End of the Road and I fully recommend the following bands;

    Black Country, New Road

    Bill Ryder-Jones

    Dry Cleaning

    Just Mustard

    The Murder Capital

    Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs

    Porridge Radio

    Scalping
