Not directly Glasto related, but the George Fitzgerald album Fading Love is a cracker.

Really recommend it to anyone looking to fill 40 minutes of their day

Need to check this out, his remix of Open Eye Signal is a monster.

Let's keep this thread alive, I much prefer to to the Headliner thread and the ones about The Who, they're all getting a bit weird.

Not posted for ages but always lurk about and found something i had to share cause it was amazing last year. Circoloco looking like they're doing a Thursday thing again. Ellen Allien and Apollonia showing dates.

That is huge, the Circoloco take over last year was so much fun.

Last year someone posted on here about Parov Stellar. Thought his stuff sounded awesome but ended up missing him/them due to a horrible clash. I really like the idea of dancing to some Electro Swing at Glastonbury this year.

Got to admit, that while what I've heard sounds awesome, its not a genre I know that much about. Anybody got any recommendations and is there any body likely to play I should be checking out?

Gypsy Hill might do it for you. Gypsy electro jazz, last time I saw them, a full band with DJ man in the middle, was good stuff.

Sbtrkt confirmed according to his tour dates: http://sbtrkt.com/home/

I know he's not the most popular round here but I'll probably be there give or take clashes.

I wonder if this adds weight to the idea that there was a plan to release more of the lineup up today, pretty sure this wasn't there a few days ago.

So, I texted my 17 year old asking him to point me in the direction of SBTRKT tracks to listen to, to convince me that no, actually I do like this stuff.

Listened to Never Never, Sanctuary, Higher (oooh, bad words, young man...) and a few others. I kinda like it, but it's not quite the 'engulfing' sound I look for. I need almost to be consumed by my dance music...taken into it, if you will. Hopefully that doesn't sound too w*nky.

Apologies, folks.

Read through that again and can confirm that I sounded like a tit.

I do know what I mean, mind!

Saw SBTRKT off the back off his debut album when he played with Sampha live, absolutely amazing set. Then caught sbtrkt playing recently off the back of his recent album and it was pretty average. Might give him another go if there are no clashes. Curious as to where he would play.

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
