Altern8 have self confirmed for this year

 

 

so excited , saw him / them (not sure if it is just Mark Archer now) at boomtown and they were awesome 

Yes, great news - although I kind of hope Mark at least plays one set on his own. When they’re together now it’s often ‘Acid Techno’, which seems to be the accepted term for hardcore-like frenzied stuff at one hundred and stupid bpm!

Saw Mark play a proper acid house set last year as part of the Second Summer of Love 30th anniversary celebrations and he was excellent.

agreed , Mark's sets on his own are amazing he pulls out some proper classic tunes

Probably unusual opinion, but I’d love to see Booka Shade somewhere at Glastonbury. I fell in love with them all over again when I’ve seen their live set couple of weeks back. I know they’ve been playing nearly every possible festival in the universe, but they’re one of the best live acts I’ve seen.

Not that unusual... I like Booka Shade. Theyd go down well in the glade

I posted somewhere (can't find it now) a while back that Kevin Saunderson &/or Inner City had a UK festival date on Glasto Friday, which has got to be at Glasto.

The date of that show has now been changed to Sunday.

Kevin Saunderson owes us a Farm set after he had to cancel (for perfectly reasonable reasons!) a couple of years ago. Hope he does a solo set too...

Oooh, great shout on that sound system

Wow! I thought everyone was sick of seeing them everywhere! Nice one! I much prefer their older productions, but the live show is a great dosage of old and new and sounds incredible!

Wasn't expecting much on the first poster, but at least we've confirmed Jonny H! 

Most anticipated artist on this thread so well done I’d say. Can’t wait to see him for the first time!

Off to Printworks tonight for the AVA night, think I might go off home though after Joy O, not too arsed with Hunee, and would have to sit through him to watch Mall Grab.

Looking at that line-up, @Matt - Ed Banger Records, I think I’d be offski after Joy O too. It’ll be early enough to go somewhere else if you cba!

Have a smashing night.

    • 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
