    The UK slaves are just on hiatus I believe while they do their own solo projects. Larry Pink The Human is Laurie's and they did do a secret set at Reading last year. I think the break came about due to a lot of personal issues between the two of them, notably Laurie's girlfriend dying. Would love to see them come back soon.

    Managed to get hold of the link elsewhere. Can't DM as we've already realised so can't share unfortunately. But fuck me. sculptures of anything goes really could be one of their best songs in years, and this is coming from a TBHC and new songs enjoyer

    It's pretty easy to control access to The Park, firstly by turning on the one way system so people can only enter at the top and then just closing it full stop - which they've done in the past for secret sets.  I'm surprised that wasn't initiated this year.

    They seemed to be attempting it after Four Tet this year as while leaving in the crush there was definitely a band of security standing along the bottom saying it reached capacity. Don't think it worked very well though

    Saw let’s eat grandma in bristol tonight. Very good. First time i’ve managed to see them since 2018 so i was a little disappointed with just the 3 tracks from Im All Ears (Hot Pink, Donnie Darko, It’s Not Just Me) as i would’ve liked them to squeeze in I Will be Waiting, Falling Into Me or Ava but ah well they played all those last time i saw them. Very good gig, get them on the park or williams green next year

    I'm going out on a limb and saying the whole tour (including North America) will pivot around Glastonbury. This has been on the cards for years as its the event that finally brings Worldwide domination and cements her critical credentials. . Why else speak of UK dates before any of the rest? My gut tells me that she will drop hints on Graham Norton.

    I’m going to choose to believe this from now until it inevitably doesn’t happen. Would make the ticket price seem nowhere as bad for me if taylor was there.

    I'm still gutted to have missed out on A Tribe Called Quest in 2017. Q-Tip returning would be fantastic, no idea if he's about. Wiki says he's still active so who knows.

    Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, Ice Cube would all be welcome as a Fri night headliner 

    Would love a Q-Tip set. Saw De La Soul a couple times this year and they were good fun both times, i dont think id be fussed with them being one of my headliners though. Mid-afternoon Pyramid or Other however would be great.

    I saw busta headline tokyo world last month and i had very very low expectations going in but he was great fun, played his hits, got the crowd going, played all of his big feature verses (including scenario by ATCQ). Good stuff, would be a good booking

    Worked a Ewan McVicar event last night. His set was fairly decent, big time upstaged by Optimo Espacio on before though. They went back B2B with Ewan for half an hour at one point which was interesting too. Missed Optimo everywhere this year so was happy to rectify that.

    Going to Boiler Room on Friday for Daniel Avery, Chaos in the CBD & LCY then working Hybrid Minds & Voltage the next day so should be a fun weekend for me.

    Discord is a very good option much more if a nice chat kinda over there. It’s only glasto centric cuz the whole banning spree happened in the glasto threads so a lot who saw it moved over. If more from here moved over into the R&L thread on there it’d be just as active

    Why discount Harry Styles so rapidly? Imagine. 🤣🤣

    I think wet leg might be a tad too big based on their own statements and my experience of them on the park at Glastonbury. 

    You know what, there’d be no complaints from me if he rocked up.

    Harry Styles Ft. Spyda MC i heard 

     

    Yeah you’re probably right about wet leg. I don’t mind them at all but they wouldn’t be my first choice so not gutted if they’re not there
