It's always on the move! Seen it roaming around ShangriLa Wed/Thurs

I swear later in the day for the announced sets it parks up in Arcadia Field

 

Surely with the size of some of the acts doing it this year it would have to be stationary!

So with under 2 weeks to go, what sets do people think could be looking like contenders for an E&D meetup? Feels like there isn't as much of a dead set Overmono/Four Tet at IICON that the majority would be likely to go to this year. 

 

HAAi/Kiki & Amelie might have a decent bunch from here? At the same time but also Bicep at IICON could be one. Prydz? Not for me but imagine Stingray 313 too.

they should have it in the healing fields, that wide avenue across the middle would be ideal and very little sound bleed from other stages

Night time at Glasto is chaos and we all have stuff to be at, should we try it during the day?

So are we thinking Assembly is going to just be a Marquee at this point (as it is currently on the webcam), or is it going to get some sort of Façade? Will look a bit out of place/disappointing if it stays as is so I'd be surprised if it does but no movement in that area since it was put up.

Surely it has to be an improvement on wow/sonic, otherwise why change the name?

My group want to go to Midland on Friday night at Genosys but have no interest in Bicep's set at IICON. Will it be ok to get in around that time 3am or do you think they could shut it off given how many people will probably go to Bicep? Cheers

You'll be fine. Bicep finish at 0245h and a lot of people will call it then and leave Block9 and the SEC. There will be a fair number of people coming down into the SEC after Arcadia/SH/San Remo have finished (including me!), but I can't see any issue with your lot getting to Genosys for 0330h.

It's billed as 'indoor', whereas WOW was a sort of mostly open tent canopy. I actually quite enjoyed the last version of Sonic - a bit like a small version of the new Glade!

 

I refuse to believe that they will simply leave Assembly as a faceless white marquee tent. Team Love make such an effort with the other SH venues, that I'm sure some outer facade will be coming in the next week.

Argh, it's always difficult, isn't it?! One of the reasons being that there is a beautiful variety of preferences within the E/D community.

 

Maybe it's an idea for people to propose a set they are going to be at, and know quite a few others have mentioned, and try to set up a series of mini-meets?

 

For example, I am 100% going to be at HAAi b2b KI/KI and then stay for Amelie. Obviously tricky to try to arrange a 'spot' at the new Arcadia, but people could share numbers, use the E/D WhatsApp group etc?

 

Herding cats again...!

If anyone is going to be at stonebridge on saturday night for optimo, erol and paulette you will find me there!

 

not as contemporary as many suggestions on this thread but i dare say a guaranteed good time and would expect it to be not completely rammed either given the myriad of options.

 

id love to be at Midland Genosys, has all the hallmarks of a potential classic. 
 

i can see myself bobbing between daphni at san remo and optimo at levels after all the annoying charli people have buggered off

Impeccable taste my friend. Similarly hoping to stroll into Strobebridge after Orbital, haven't actually been in there since 2014.

 

Putting Charli XCX in between Kelly Lee Owens and Optimo is some truly baffling programming.

Excuse my ignorance, fairly new to dance music, one group I’ve gotten familiar with is Bicep 

 

and I noticed there playing on Friday, under the name Bicep Pres Chroma

 

Now, does that mean I shouldn’t expect the classic bicep tunes and are they playing under a new name with new music? 
I am a rookie so apologies

Usually drop a few Bicep tunes but play them a bit faster tempo. Usually end with Glue. 

 

This sort of thing:

    • It can take around 30-45 mins to walk from the arena back to the transport hub with the crowds, depending on density. Allow even longer in poor conditions. I don't think you'd need to leave Linkin Park early though, you have at least an hour and 20 minutes to walk to transportation. I certainly wouldn't leave early in your shoes, knowing I can just walk to the airport if needs be (2 mile walk and another 30 - 45 min walk depending on your walking speed and conditions.) Maybe just don't linger too long for the toilet / food after Linkin Park have finished.  It will definitely make sense and all just fall into place on the night, don't worry too much and have a great time. The very worst that can happen is a little extra walking to the Airport Skylink bus stop, as those Skylink busses are 100% 24 hour. 🙂  GFS, ICON and ECMWF are ALL in agreement on the latest runs.... After a mildly moist Weds and Thurs, high Pressure building from Friday... Lets just hope they continue to agree... ☀️☀️☀️
