From Continental Drifts re Shangri La:

Once again were running Shangri- La , this eternal madness of 1000`s of artists performing for not very much to an audience more “up for it “ then Rio Carnival continues. This year we bring you over 14 micro venues, alongside acts so big we aren’t even allowed to say who, nestled next to the latest festival giants and acts from beyond the Mainstream .

Some of the highlights for us anyway include

Turtle Island Band from Japan

A Guy Called Gerald

Rudimental

and a whole Symphony of Glastonbury Bird Recordings to name a tiny few

Awesome! Saw A Guy Called Gerald a few months back and he was great.

Gives me hope that PH&JA could headline the Saturday, and that some of the other stages have bands listed in the wrong order too

Dexys are headlining Saturday. That we know.

[TheSeventhOne]

Does that mean Jon Hopkins will clash with Metallica? Bit of a shame for me if so.

Can you imagine them on the Pyramid??!?! The Deckchair people would be wondering where the soreing choruses are and bamboozled at all the energy on display. I could only imagine how many jugs of pimms would be spilt, totes there for Shangri-la always wanted to see them live as they are considered one of those 'CULT JAPANESE BANDS YOU NEED TO SEE BEFORE YOU DIE' kind of thing.

-Edit- They ARE playing the Pyramid as well, that'll be a barrel of laughs in the morning :/ When you try to dance only to be denied by a guardian reading w*nker.

Just worth noting, before you get your hopes up, there appears to be two bands called 'Turtle Island'. The Japanese band you're talking about, and a different one from Ohio. According to someone on their Facebook, it's the latter that are playing.

Continental Drifts (ie Shangri La) themselves say "Turtle Island Band from Japan". I think I first saw something about them playing months back from a Japanese Twitter account too. And here's Yahoo Japan reporting it. I strongly suspect it's the users posting on their Facebook who've got it wrong.

I posted a video of the japan turtle island and Shangri-la retweeted me, they also went (from Japan) in the line up announcement.

I'd be gutted if we just get another Psyc revival band.

Which was the Japanese band on Hell Stage last year? Not the same one is it?

Great coffee table book.

In that case, great news. They sound up my street, so I'll be checking them out.

EDIT: The Ohio 'Turtle Island' have also retweeted a tweet about them playing. They could've just tweeted someones mistake for a laugh, but thought I'd put it out there. https://twitter.com/_turtle_island

That was them, we were there for the sound check, they played 4 songs to a dancing field before getting hauled off.

[CaledonianGonzo]

They were - and I use the expression advisedly - the fucking tits.

how is that going to work? it's next to the Park, right, will there not be sound bleed issues? Park has strummy strummy bedwetter acoustic feyness wafting about (actually my preferred genre as it goes), and right next to it will be the whump whump whump of Arcadia?
