Wow! Was it something I said?

Welcome back to the forum eh?

I asked if anyone else was a little pissed off, not totally pissed off ;o)

Look....I've been to many festivals over the years. This will be my 4th KC. Being able to park next to my tent has been a huge advantage in taking my young daughter.

Not parking next to my tent will not ruin my enjoyment of the festival, it will be a minor inconvenience, no more than that!!!

Your aiming your rant about leaving the place as a shit hole at the wrong person I'm afraid....you need to look elsewhere!

Ha ha , don't stress on parking your car from what I have seen , it will be your own car park next to your own field , minute walk .

No ranting really just in a bit of a mood after finding out the gig of a life time I have been waiting for since last October has bloody professor green on the line up. Gutted

Morning all,

As a newbie at KC, I am seeking advice as usual...

I have an early entry ticket so what time do the gates open Thursday?

Also how long is the longest walk to the arena? Am I right in thinking that the site is all fairly intricate?

Thanks in Advance (Apologies for my lack of knowledge)

you could get in from noon last year as far as i remember, longest walk from the fields was about 5 mins last year, most places you were right next to it and the walking was round to the arena enterances.

site was quite small and compact last year, plenty packed in to it though

I assume you're talking about Stone Roses?

I've got tickets for Friday and Saturday and happy with the line-up for both those days. I'd be as gutted as you if I had Saturday...Pro Green not for me and Beady Eye were shite at the Apollo last year.

I was concerned about Wickerman being just 2 days, but with it being the weekend before KC I've book the week off and stay in the lakes.

I also get the impression that Wickerman is a much later night than KC so 2 nights will probably be enough...haha

Got tickets for Sunday for the Roses. Plan B ?? a bit bizarre but something different I suppose. The Wailers is an interesting booking.....wonder if they will turn up at any festivals in the summer. Think they are playing all 3 Roses nights. Saw Craig Charles in Preston at the weekend. Great set and would be a great addition to any fest this summer.

Jimmy Cliff for Kendal !!!!????

I dont want to keep claiming I know things, because Im literally just getting info of my friend but he's now saying ''The Enemy'' are going to playing Kendal.

Loved there first album but everything since has let me down big time.

Thoughts?

Guy not heard anything from for ages used to be in the Stands - Howard Elliott Payne, not sure where he is these days but i'd like that also if Steve Kendal is reading this

Bingley is a great line-up! I was considering it but not sure about the camping arrangements with them being off site....it doesn't seem secure somehow

    • 13th Primavera (Thursday was definitely making me feel like this was the cursed year).  Blood Orange was such a party by the end of their set but we all knew that rain storm was approaching.  So gutted Massive Attack didn't play after the false hope of a new rescheduling, especially knowing that Elizabeth Fraser & Horace Andy were backstage with them!  Managed a bit of Melt Banana but was just so over the weather by that point.   Friday was awesome, Rilo Kiley were so much fun.  Never been the biggest Cure fan but made the effort for them after Thursday & Robert Smith sounds like he did back in the 80s.  PinkPantheress & Viagra Boys were also great.   The highlight for me was Sudan Archives on the Saturday, she was stunning & with the Olivia Rodrigo surprise set too it made up for the Thursday sh*t show.  Dijon & Knocked Loose also superb.   Shoutout to Cardiacs on the Tuesday too, they were so LOUD, played a storming set.    
    • OK, never mind, I'll take normal Nine Inch Nails.
    • Probably my least favourite of the five editions I've been to, but still plenty good enough for me to go again. Weirdly, I was just totally running out of stamina a lot earlier into the night than I remember happening in the past. I feel like I missed a lot of the weirder sets on the smaller stages as I was just totally cooked. Not Primavera's fault, obviously. Maybe I'm just getting old - or maybe I need to pace my drinking better...   Anyway - is David Byrne a realistic get for next year? Certainly hoping so.
    • watching clips of the cure in Barcelona, wow 2 hours 25 minute set. That's gonna be tough on the Sunday but can't bloody wait for it
