    I just received an email from Shelter explaining they oversubscribed by 157 people. To make it fair they went off of the first transaction on the payment system. Completely understand it's not their fault but still gutted! 

    Well done everyone who secured a place! Fingers crossed for the wait list x

    That sucks, sorry to hear that.  

  2. Good summary @Brave Sir Robin it was a thoroughly enjoyable night.  The only other story which I liked hearing was when Mary McCartney and Emily were talking about Lionel Ritchies obsession with moss and how super friendly he is and making sure his path to stage was clear otherwise he would stop and talk to everyone.

    Sadly no info around acts playing next year, but there is definitely good relationships with the locals and council so should see the festival running for the foreseeable future.

     

  3. That was bullshit.  I was on seetickets booking page for Brixton at seconds past 10, none available.  the secondary sites of course are overloaded

     

  4. That was an amazing set, so glad I chose to see her.  Her and her band totally killed it and topped off by her coming into the crowd and dancing right next to me at the end.  If you watch it back I am in the bright yellow/orange hawaiian shirt.  Incredible!

    Black Midi Crows Nest Friday night is gonna be ?

    Very excited about this.  going to see them in London the week before but they are making waves so possibly last chance to see them intimately.

    "Fully licensed bar from midnight"? Seems an odd time to open. Didn't someone post on here a little while ago that this was supposed to be the cheapest bar on site?

    Doesn't suggest when it closes though.  Perhaps it opens midnight on Wednesday and never closes...

  7. Mine skewed also by daughter and wife.  I naively thought that if you have a premium family account they could at least split it individually.  Only two artists for me in the list, I'll let you work out which ones.

    Got three songs in and didn't enjoy it, Might have to persevere and listen it through.

     

    I'd always recommend listening to an album three times before deciding unless it commpletely offends your ears.  So many albums are far more rewarding long term when they grow on you, those that are immediately accessible tend to get uninteresting just as quickly.

    IT MIGHT BE OVER SOON

    Other Stage surely?!

    I think they'd suffer due to the sound quality on the Other stage, feel like they need a more intimate setting.  But as I said they are probably too big for Park and JP

    You'll have a great time :) It was beautiful.

    And it was beautiful.  The sound was phenomenal, literally spinetingling.  I think @Mardy mentioned that it was rammed so get there early.  Got there late, paid the price.  Don't think I've seen it that busy downstairs before.  The biggest diappointment for me was they only played for just over an hour, they came on at 9pm finished at approximately 10:10pm.  Felt like there was so much more they could have played and was kind of expecting at least a 90 minute set.  Especially when you paying north of £40 for a ticket.  Most people seemed a bit gutted it was over so soon.

    Don't want to end on a negative note though, the new material live is phenomenal, I'd love for them to record a "live" studio album of the record.  Although the stage is probably too small, can see them as the ideal John Peel or Park stage headliners next year.
