mandolin Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I love the smaller stages and venues like Bourbon Street where I think you'll find more variety than any other festival I know. Luckily all those smaller venues are subsidised by the TV rights sales attracted by the Pyramid 'big names.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed209 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I'd love a jamming stage. Just a load of equipment set up where any of the proper performers can just rock up anytime and jam with any other performers, just on impulse from getting fucked up together back stage. It would be a total shit show in terms of any kind of format, and could be utter chaos, but could also produce some moments of magic. Would make compulsive viewing. Probably wouldn't work at all, but would be a great experiment one year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I think some people may have misunderstood you mate and think you're on about doing this instead of the pyramid and other stages, as opposed to as well as. I may be wrong, but that's the impression I get. I see nothing wrong with someone doing what you're on about inn the Park or Avalon, for example, for half a day. I think people think you;re talking about revamping the whole thing for all 5 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilloggie Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Any mention of a Bowie tribute always reminds me of Only Fools and Horses and the carpenter doing "Ziggy Sawdust" in the Nags Head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essex_George Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Essex George prob lives in some sleepy Essex backwater, maybe scared of Romford and not really up to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essex Orange Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I used to frequent Romford a fair bit in my younger days! What was/is the night club near the train station called? Can't for the life of me remember! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Why don't they have an 'Eavii themed weekend'? - this could take the form of all the acts Emily and Michael would like to book, and are able to book playing on the main stages over the weekend.

dingbat2 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I know there are other festivals that do this, such as Glastonbudget, but I love the idea of a tribute acts stage or day. There are some quality tribute acts around these days and it would be great to have a bop to some Queen, Pink Floyd, Abba, Beatles, Bowie, etc. They would go down a treat especially on the Pyramid first thing, or on the Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 If we had an eFests curated night I'd hope Neil would take charge on it as opposed to letting joe spudmuncher get involved. Then at least we'd get a Rocksteady All-Star knees up rather than the bland leading the bland piffle we've seen on this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essex_George Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 When I knew it, it was Time & Envy, probably had a few names since then tho. But of course I used to go when it was a Cinema Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackHole2006 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Don't worry Wooderson. A reliable source has told me that The Rolling Stones, Gaga, Mumfords, Arctics or any other band mentioned in the "Headliners 2013" thread (apart from Prince) are not playing. I can't say who that source is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
