clashfinder

[LondonTom]

It's almost as if enjoyment of music is a personal and highly subjective thing isn't it?

[MEGABOWL]

Acoustic will be on there as with everything else. Go look at the 2011 clashfinder and click on customise and add all stages. There are 68 on there in total.

[Morse Code]

Jesus Christ, your complaining about the xx being dull and you actively went to see Florence?! (Not defending The XX, they are also bloody dull but at least its not Florence screeching at you!)

[TheSeventhOne]

Nah, that's Bat For Lashes.

[jeffie]

Is anyone in touch with Halvin? I've not seen him on the forum for ages. I'm just wondering if he's still getting the official timings direct from the festival again.

Would be interesting to hear what's happening....

Wish there was more information, we are less than 8 weeks out and we only have 5 stages and most of them is guess work.

Looks like full line up will be out next week if you read the comments on silver Hayes latest Facebook post. Full clashfinder can't be far behind it ;-)

[johnny-yen]

C'mon Halvin, give us a sign. Show us you're still with us. We need you.

Editors are on Sunday

their ATP is the weekend before so surely it would ruin the exclusivity of that somewhat. would be one of the bands of my festival if they were to play.

[Tuna]

announcing it late? so to encourage sales

[MrPink]

nightmare with Faols and bastille. Knew as soon as the lineup came out that they would clash. Oh well, hopefully the clashfinder will change enough in the lead up to allow me to get to both.

[Memory Man]

there is literally no point looking at a clashfinder at this point in time, there are way too many variables that means bands might move times, days, stages even.

You can pretty much pencil in the headliners and thats it.

[William of Walworth]

I agree Memory Man, from my experience of using the excllent clashfinder in previous years. It's being tweaked and updated all the time, but a lot of the set times listed are educated guesswork at this stage, Watch and wait I'd advise.

And even when clashfinder does become as close to accurate re times as possible, there's also such a thing as overplanning!

How many bands do you becime determined to see, but end up missing, because of that inevitable cider/beer/'jazz ciggy'/meeting mates unexpectedly/random shit/aimless wandering/got lost/"what's going on in that tent over there?" moment???

[bombfrog]

Now what have I told you about referring to me as the messiah?!

Just for the record, she was bloody brilliant. I don't get all this 'screeching' bandwagonism. She's Kate Bush for the 21st century...

[Zero_Newnab]

It's not "bandwagonism", it's just "having working ears".

When she sings live and gets to the high/loud bits she honks like a wounded seal.

It's all about chunks of time. You can try and put aside a 3 hour period when you'll be in or around West Holts or Pyramid or whatever - but trying to get things down to the nearest half hour, or setting aims of watching 2/3rds of one set, before a 10 minute trip to another stage to see the start of anothe one... no chance. You've forgotten that Russycarps needs a piss, The Nal wants fags, or Floorfiller is still queueing at the bar...

I'll usually take my sweet time and miss acts rather then see a bit of this and a bit of that. At the same time though, there's usually at least one occasion each festie where I get my jog on and hot foot it accross the site to catch a band who over lap with another.

I always think it's a good idea to take a good old stroll around the site on Thursday, that way you get a better feel for where everything is in relation to each other.

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

I think I go there thinking 'I really need to see this person' then sometimes that particular band is guff live or you just aren't in the mood for it so you move on, luckily this year I am going with a big group of people with quite diverse tastes. I have of course told them that should i want to go and watch something I'll just wander off and find them later.

That isn't to say that when the Clashfinder is finalised I won't spend ages looking at it and planning my weekend, I tend to find I use it much more for the earlier acts than later on in the evening, something to do with getting drunk I guess

[drewsstrat]

You have to Factor in crowd shifts as well. What takes 10 min on a Thursday will take 20m on Friday afternoon and 30 mins on Saturday night. I don't do jogging. On paper it's a good idea but when your standing most the time the old legs give in
