I thought We Are Scientists had cancelled their appearance for a moment earlier. On advice from the doctor they were told to cancel some dates which thankfully doesnt include kendal but I wad supposed to be seeing them in Manchester the tuesday after kendal and that's not happening now. So hoping Keith's voice holds out and it all goes ahead

I get the feeling the calling out tent is gonna be rammed for a few acts, It just seems a lot stronger than previous years and I can imagine admiral fallow, Sound of guns, King Charles, tribes and Ghostpoet getting bumper crowds to name a few, tribes are up against dizzee who seems to have got a slagging when the initial line up came out so I think they'll get massive support

Morrissey in Manchester and Savages in Leeds, so I'm going to make sure I have a bloody good time. Fancy dress on Saturday is a big group debate at the moment. I really don't fancy spending the day in the Calling Out dressed as Alice in Wonderlands duck, even after a few beers, I take music too seriously to be dressed up as a duck !!

I've just sat down for the first glass of beer of the weekend (always the best one) and I'm going to have to put Murder Ballads on the jukey now.. and it was going to be Pulp to celebrate getting tickets for Sheffield. The duck isn't happening, else I could be in a mood for enacting some of the more lurid ballads.

I have a feeling the Calling Out stage might be a bit bigger this year. Bigger crowd, and one or two 'more established' up and coming bands in there

awwww, bless her, can't do that....the rest of the boring sods who sit near me don't understand real music (at least she does), to them, 'real' music is stuff like Steps, Take That, The Wanted, Little Mix etc, etc, etc

They must be happy on a Friday afternoon every 3 months at your place then ! Downloads way too heavy for my liking as well but I wudnt stoop to steps and little mix who seem to make a living destroying songs I used to like

    • It feels really busy this year, loads of big groups of youngsters too. Slightly different vibe to previous years I've been. As with Tramlines, they're very chatty during sets and there's a constant stream of them in and out of the crowd... definitely feeling my age 😂   The Quarry stage I think is a lot smaller than previous years - seems similar size to Squid/Leadmill. Some sets have been difficult to get in.   I think I've reached my limit with mid-tier indie guitar bands. There's been quite a few this weekend where I've gone over to see them then walked away after 20 mins. Surprisingly, enjoyed the Fratellis set the most in this genre. Probably getting on for 20 years since I last saw them. Wasn't expecting them to do Yes Sir, I Can Boogie, which was fab!   Hugely enjoyed the Happy Mondays yesterday, and same but different with Radio Free Alice who I saw again on Friday, following Tramlines last weekend. A big run of pop acts today - Scissor Sisters will be fantastic!
