Daytime stuff ain't getting announced until next week I think. According to the place I assume you got the info from.

Yep, I don't know who is playing but the whole idea of it seems amazing

Also I down voted you by accident there when scrolling down on my phone sorry about that! Will find another comment of yours to upvote

Ahhh, The Cribs, Royal Blood and Maxïmo Park on the Saturday. Might have to do this. Surely if all those acts are at The Sage, though, the set times must be tiny?

There are two stages.

It looks as though the Cribs maybe headlining the second, which means they may clash with Hot Chip. Damn it.

Two stages and from 6pm till 12.

On a tangent but Will are you still at Newcastle uni??

[Gucci Piggy]

Oh that's sweet! However, just realised I'm already seeing The Cribs on the Sunday so may not bother.

Nah I'm not Kemosabe, deferred until next year, so was kinda bummed when I heard this was gonna be up there haha.

Not a problem.

I guess Scottie's having his tea as I don't think it's been updated but Maccabees have been announced and Jamie XX and Simian Mobile Disco for the after hours stuff. Also a Scottish band with an anniversary in a couple of mins which will most likely be JAMC considering they're doing an anniversary tour at the time.

EDIT: wrong! Didn't even realise Mogwai were celebrating an anniversary.

The Friday show is only on from 5-10pm. Seems like each band will only get about 45 minutes?

[stylishkids]

I'm guessing the Friday set times will be

TWOD 530 - 615

Sleater Kinney 635 - 720

Interpol 740 - 825

Mogwai 845 - 945

Not bothered about Mogwai but it is extremely tempting for the other 3 who I'm trying to catch in Feb and March without having a ticket for any atm. Just debating whether it's worth travelling all the way to Newcastle for three 45 minute sets though.

[Gucci Piggy]

If I can see The Cribs, Royal Blood, Maxïmo Park and Simian Mobile Disco without clashes then damn I wanna go.

Shame about Mogwai and The War on Drugs being Friday, mind.

Anyone know what day Jamie xx is? I don't see him on the efest listings.

That would be pretty ideal, Sleater-Kinney are the only band I'm really bothered about but they're my favourite band and I'm really stoked that one of there first shows back is in Newcastle. War on Drugs would probably be the only other act I'd maybe wanna see.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Nice little line up

[Zoo Music Girl]

But Gateshead is too far for me

are you listening to a different radio station?

Do you mean Jamie T?

[dentalplan]

Jamie xx is playing the Saturday. I think it's an after hours thing at 'the Boiler Shop'. Four Tet too. On the BBC listing.

How many do we have left?

oops - they're not supposed to have released that today!

[Dom Wall]

What time is the after hours? Will it not clash with the other acts?

[kemosabe]

After hours is that festival by day??

The day stuff is free ballot and is interviews, art films, live radio 6, local bands and comedy (I think) so Jamie XX could be playing then?

[5co77ie]

I think he is as an after hours DJ Set

[TheBoz]

I'll be trying for saturday tickets. Friday looks good too but i've got a TWOD ticket for the week after

[sloaney007]

Does anyone know who the tickets will be available from? ticketmaster is blocked by my employers so if I want to get tickets I may need to "nip out" to try and get some.

[Dom Wall]

Think it's ticketweb

they've now announced that!

[dentalplan]

Ticketweb are going on my shit list. Twice I actually had tickets reserved when it gave me an error notice and had me start again.
