Flaming Lips setlist from Sound City yesterday, guessing we'll get something like this?

The Abandoned Hospital Ship
Fight Test
The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (With All Your Power)
Pompeii Am Götterdämmerung
Psychiatric Explorations of the Fetus With Needles
Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1
Feeling Yourself Disintegrate
Vein of Stars
Butterfly, How Long It Takes to Die
A Spoonful Weighs a Ton
Encore:
Do You Realize??

Looks pretty nice, happy that Fight Test and Yeah Yeah Yeah are back in the setlist. I'd like to see Race for the Prize as well but still I'm very excited for this!

Opening with The Abandoned Hospital Ship at End of the Road last year was amazing, I do really hope they repeat this at least! Also, glad to see they have ditched some of the covers; a band with a back catalogue like that really does not need them in a limited festival set.

Don't know when anyone's coming down, but Ash are playing Wedgewood Rooms on the Friday night, which isn't far from the common at all.

Some people may be interested if they're down on the Friday night :)

Good shout, would have to get another days accommodation but worth considering.

Damn, Super Furry Animals against Johnny Marr may end up a hard decision to make. 

Yeah, clocked that one. Ballache! Had the same thing last year there when Shed 7 and DLS v SP clashed. Gonna have to go with the Furries though.

 

Just booked for this. We were in 2 minds but had such a great weekend at '2000Trees' decided to get another one. Now struggling to find a bloody hotel that isn't charging a fortune.

I was looking at it, but £350 for two nights in a holiday inn  express and £500 for what looks like an upmarket bed and breakfast is just too much for me.

Yeah, sort of defeats the benefits of having cheap tickets. Nowhere to camp round there either from what I can see.

I would guess it would depend on how far you wanna be camped. I would guess, maybe, Southampton will have some b&B availability.....its only £10.90 return on t' train. Last train is half 11. I would assume they would put more on though....OR you can drive in each day.....

 

(we looked at both these options before finding a room in Portsmouth....)

Cheers. Yeah, might be our only option. Luckily my missus is pregnant so won't be drinking.

Even a taxi back to Southampton wouldn't cost that much. Portsmouth has got a ridiculous amount of taxis so they are fairly competitive in their pricing. Pre book and youre sorted.

Think we've had taxis back to soton for about 25 quid, which isn't bad for a 30 - 40 minute journey

Any news about when timings are being announced? Can't wait for this. Good mid-summer festival for me, post-Glasto and pre-Florence and Foo Fighters gigs.

From memory think it was very late last year, it being in a local paper the day before rings a bell but I might be confusing that with something else. 

Made up...we had been really struggling to find a hotel at a decent price and got one yesterday right on the sea front less than a mile from the venue for 3 nights for £270!

Can't seem to find last year's map online. 

 

They've said set times will be posted 'a couple of weeks before' the weekend, but yeah there is a pull out guide printed in The News a couple of days before. 

 

Luckily Saturday seems to be pretty clash free. Hoping Peter Hook avoids Jaws & Honeyblood but it doesn't looked likely. I'm going on my own at the moment so haven't decided if I'm gonna go Sunday too yet, but I'd quite like to see Johnny Marr.

    • It fits the logic I think.    Question: the royal link mail I have gives an error, but it does say in the email that the tracking number may not be recognised until the tickets have been attempted to be delivered. Is that the same for anyone here and is it a normal UK mail thing that the tracking works AFTER and not BEFORE something reaches its destination?    Luckily I have full trust in my usual postman so as long as he doesn't have a day off I know he'll do the right thing but I wouldn't mind anticipating a bit 🙂
    • i definitely want to get another bearded under my belt. a sunny one would be nice tho 😅😅
    • These challenges, ranging from internal conflicts to external pressures, require adept handling and strategic resolution. Organizational issues training equips employees and leaders with the skills and knowledge to identify, address, and mitigate these challenges effectively. This blog explores the significance of organizational issues training and how it can fortify an organization against various hurdles. Understanding Organizational Issues Organizational issues encompass a wide range of problems that can affect the efficiency, culture, and performance of a company. Common issues include: Communication Breakdowns: Miscommunication or lack of communication can lead to misunderstandings, errors, and decreased morale. Conflict Management: Interpersonal conflicts or departmental disputes can disrupt workflows and create a toxic work environment. Change Resistance: Employees may resist changes due to fear of the unknown, lack of trust, or inadequate communication. Employee Engagement: Low levels of engagement and motivation can lead to decreased productivity and higher turnover rates. Operational Inefficiencies: Inefficient processes and systems can waste resources and reduce profitability. Cultural Misalignment: Misalignment between organizational culture and business objectives can impede strategic initiatives. The Role of Organizational Issues Training Organizational issues training focuses on equipping employees with the tools and techniques needed to navigate and resolve these challenges. Here’s why it is crucial: 1. Enhancing Communication Skills Effective communication is the cornerstone of a healthy organization. Training programs can help employees develop active listening skills, clear articulation, and the ability to provide and receive constructive feedback. Improved communication reduces misunderstandings and fosters a collaborative environment. 2. Developing Conflict Resolution Abilities Conflict is inevitable in any organization, but it doesn’t have to be detrimental. Training equips employees with conflict resolution skills, such as negotiation, mediation, and problem-solving techniques. This helps in transforming conflicts into opportunities for growth and innovation. 3. Facilitating Change Management Change is a constant in today’s business world. Training programs on change management help employees understand the dynamics of change, develop adaptability, and learn strategies to cope with and support organizational changes. This reduces resistance and enhances the successful implementation of new initiatives. 4. Boosting Employee Engagement Engaged employees are more productive, committed, and likely to stay with the company. Training on employee engagement strategies can help managers and leaders create a motivating work environment, recognize and reward contributions, and build strong, supportive teams. 5. Improving Operational Efficiency Training in lean management, process improvement, and project management can help employees identify inefficiencies and develop solutions to streamline operations. This leads to better resource utilization, reduced costs, and improved overall performance. 6. Aligning Organizational Culture Training programs can reinforce the organization’s values, mission, and vision, ensuring that all employees are aligned with the cultural and strategic goals of the company. This alignment fosters a cohesive work environment where everyone works towards common objectives. Key Components of Organizational Issues Training 1. Communication Workshops Interactive workshops focusing on verbal and non-verbal communication, active listening, and feedback techniques help employees communicate more effectively and collaboratively. 2. Conflict Management Seminars Seminars that cover conflict resolution styles, negotiation tactics, and mediation processes provide employees with practical tools to handle disputes constructively. 3. Change Management Courses Courses that address the psychology of change, strategies for managing resistance, and frameworks for leading change initiatives help employees navigate transitions smoothly. 4. Engagement and Motivation Training Training programs that focus on motivational theories, employee recognition strategies, and team-building activities boost morale and foster a positive work environment. 5. Process Improvement Training Training in methodologies such as Lean Six Sigma, Agile, and Total Quality Management (TQM) empowers employees to enhance operational efficiency and drive continuous improvement. 6. Cultural Alignment Programs Programs that emphasize organizational values, ethical standards, and cultural integration help employees align their behavior with the company’s strategic goals. Implementing Effective Organizational Issues Training 1. Needs Assessment Conducting a thorough needs assessment helps identify the specific organizational issues that need to be addressed. This ensures that training programs are relevant and targeted. 2. Tailored Training Solutions Customized training programs that reflect the unique context and challenges of the organization are more effective than generic ones. Tailored solutions ensure that the training addresses specific needs and objectives. 3. Interactive and Experiential Learning Interactive workshops, role-playing, and real-world simulations enhance engagement and retention. Experiential learning methods provide practical experience in dealing with organizational issues. 4. Continuous Improvement Organizational issues training should be an ongoing effort. Regular refresher courses, advanced training sessions, and continuous learning opportunities help employees stay updated and improve their skills over time. 5. Evaluation and Feedback Assessing the impact of training programs through feedback, surveys, and performance metrics helps in refining and improving the training initiatives. Continuous evaluation ensures that the training remains effective and relevant.   https://www.sprintzeal.com/
