dingbat2 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I read somewhere that Gary Numan will sub Hot Chip on the Thursday? Does anyone know what time Numan would likely be on, I am desperate to see the legend again. I booked the ferry (for 1.30pm on Thursday) and ticket not realising this so need to have time to get there and pitch before the master performs! Cant risk missing him!

dingbat2 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Love to hear some filthy electronica from Goldfrapp again, I would have though they were well suited to a festival like Bestival, and they have a new greatest hits album out now. Would be great to heart some of the older stuff again like Utopia, Lovely Head, Crystalline green and Black Cherry. I am not sure if they will be doing a greatest hits tour any time soon? Probably not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexclark Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Goldfrapp would indeed be brilliant. Can't believe I've not managed to see them at a fest since 2004! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaosmark2 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I've just realised Crystal Castles are in Europe again this summer, been annoucned for Benicassim. Any chance Bestival could/would get them again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe- Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I'd like to give them another shot, I was quite disappointed with their main stage one last year. I think I left half way through. Put them in big top and yes, would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe- Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I wasn't right in the crowd for it, we were by the food stalls but the sound for us wasn't brilliant and we lost interest. Would have been great if Robert Smith came on for 'Not in Love'. Big top would be insane though. Crystal Fighters should return as well.

hazzamid11 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 It would have been. Not to be though, guess he was saving his voice for that blisteringly awesome and long set he did later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smogo Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I was right down the front for Crystal Castles, surrounded by Cure fans who had no interest in anything they played until "Not in Love" started, and even then they stopped caring as soon as they realised Fat Bob wasn't coming out. It really wasn't the Crystal Castles experience I'd been hoping for. (And for what it's worth, I think Fat Bob sounds all wrong on that track anyway.)

Joe- Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Haven't heard the Cure Bestival album yet, all I remember from that show is not knowing half the songs and getting a gourmet burger. The burger was nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave The Hedgehog Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I didn't mind Crystal Castles last year. That's to say, I tolerated them enough to get a great spot to see PJ Harvey and The Cure. I caused a domestic after they finished too. Couple dressed as dinosaurs came up to me and asked when Crystal Castles were playing and I was not too subtle in telling them that they'd just missed them. I think they left the island on seperate boats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dingbat2 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Just listening to a bit of Polyphonic Spree, love to hear these guys agin! Not sure if they are still all together or have played Bestival before. They would be an ideal band to have I reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
