I've never quite clicked with OK Willams' sets (more my problem than theirs, I'm sure). But, Child 1 has put them top of his Block9 must-sees for this year (not that he's going, he'd just always share his expert opinion!).

 

So I had another dig, and this is really, really good. Something like this on Genosys at 2-3am could be phenomenal.

I f**k with this! More recommendations like this please sir. It's giving me fun high-energy vibes which i'm here for.

Yeah I listened to that OK Williams set today (at 7am whilst training) and really enjoyed it. 
 

Imagine I’d enjoy it even more at 2am with something stronger than an espresso inside me.

Took the kids to Radio 1 Big Weekend yesterday.


We saw Joy Anonymous first. Had a lot of fun, but I wouldn’t be rushing to see them again at Glasto, played a pretty much identical set to when they warmed up for Fred in September at Ally Pally and honestly their mixing is so up and down. Some real clangers in there. 

 

Caught 20 mins of Salute. One of my favourite DJs at the moment, lots of energy, great track selection and clashes permitting I’ll see him again at Glasto. 

Intended to see Eric Prydz but my wife lost her phone just before so we spent an hour trying (unsuccessfully)  to locate it. 

 

Dimension is about as cheesy as it gets from a Drum and Bass DJ. No skill or craft at all, just press play on the most well know tunes at the time. 

 

Chase And Status were decent, they could headline the Other stage again no bother. 
 

Nice day, musically was pretty vanilla, but a little warm up for the real stuff next month.

Anyone spotted Four Tet? I’ve not noticed him announced anywhere. 
 

Cheers 

Multiple previous posts on this... No name anywhere yet and I can't see any of the usual aliases. My money's on him being on the sidelines for Daphni's set at Stonebridge (Dan was there for his set last year), although he was chatting to Jamie XX at Jamie's club night the last couple of nights so he could be in the wings there. Can't see him coming on with Jamie particularly though. 

 

A few on the thread adamant he's having a year out but I don't believe it, he never misses Glastonbury. But I love him and am biased.

Although he may well pop up with somebody else or do a very secret set, I’m working on the theory that he’s having year off from being all over the lineup to make way for getting a decent slot - Holts headliner perhaps - next year. A slot like that seems far less impressive when you saw him play your campsite the previous year.

Are chemical brothers playing in any format? One of them DJing somewhere? Aren’t they always there?

I don’t think they are always performing there in the same way Fatboy is. They headline the other every four years or so and DJ’d Arcadia last year but that is the first DJ set there I can remember.

Your (entirely unsurprising) wish has been granted! Felix D will close Genosys on Monday morning.

 

Ben

 

Well, that's just the cherry on the top for me. 

 

On the actual Genosys. 

 

It'll be like 2019 all over again 🙂

won't be about for a few years, nothing this summer - they are on a break as one of them just had a kid

 

would expect some dj sets maybe the end of next year to ramp up into the next album perhaps

So is that every dance lineup out now? Except Greenpeace?

 

I really had my hopes of Marlon Hoffstadt being on the farm, really thought this was his year... Guessing the UK bookers haven't got him high on their lists 😔 

 

Would be perfect timing with his first Essential Mix out now

    • 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
