homeravery Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 As the Latitude Thread on the main page was taken down, its a good time to start a new thread on this page of 'Other UK Festivals'. There will be a new announcement of acts on Thursday. Who do you want to be announced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pryce Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 is it a music announcement? thought it was only a Theatre and dance announcement if it is bands I want We Were Promised Jetpacks, Maybeshewill, Turbowolf and ASIWYFA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 If there's any music incoming, then I'd love some Charli XCX, Neneh Cherry, Marina And The Diamonds, ESG, Purity Ring and ASIWYFA, among a few others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adequate8 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Just seen that. was there a 'dance' area last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesrfisher Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 The dance will be on the waterfront stage and usually involves ballet from Sadlers Wells plus indian dance, Cuban etc not EDM. Although it could be some of the late night djs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything Everything are only free on the Saturday... Which looks pretty full on the poster. Are they small enough to slot in anywhere on there?

homeravery Posted April 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 No music today, waterfront and cabaret. But just got a tweet from the festival saying music next week. Fingers crossed. Maybe the Sunday morning slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasto-worker Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 I am sure this will change closer to the event http:///s/lat2015/ have always been keen on Latitude as a volunteer due to its ease of access and its a nice drive from London - I live in North London near the M25 so its ideal for us and we miss all the festival traffic as we will arrive the afternoon of Wednesday 15th July and due to the layout of the crew area it is possible to stop right outside our crew camp entry gate so we unload and then park the car - we quickly set up and then have a drink - I normally will take a walk with the WBC Site Manager and we will check out each bar just to make sure everything is in place and by the time we return the London crew coaches will be arriving so the crew camp soon fills up. its all very laid back. each year I keep planning to check out the ticket holders as they arrive but I have always missed it as normally all the motorised buggies will be busy - I will see it one year.

Tuna Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Announcements tomorrow including music! https://twitter.com/LatitudeFest/status/593380733810561024 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Exciting times are these. And So I Watch You From Afar are playing in Manchester in about 4 hours, I've elected not to go due to me not having any money, I need them to show up on at least one festival line-up this summer, FR has them for L&R so it'd be nice if Melvin could get them to stop by Henham Park as well. Although I think every past incident of me saying "L&R have them so Latitude must get them too" has ended in that band not showing up at Latitude, so I hope I haven't jinxed it.

Tuna Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Does anyone know when day splits for sunrise/lake stage were about last year? Still need to decide whether or not the Saturday is worthwhile. Have no idea who's going to be announced, or where for that matter! Couple more mainstage for Friday/Sunday, I'd imagine. Maybe more 6music Sunday too. Sunrise is looking quite full, and I'll inevitably know nobody announced for the Lake stage anyway. ASIWYFA are a great shout, GOML. Also, are you Konichiwa_Bitches on DiS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, are you Konichiwa_Bitches on DiS? Yeah, that's me, went with Konichiwa_Bitches as there's a very similarly named user over there on who's toes I did not want to tread! Efests is my main forum though, lurked on DiS music board for ages, finding great stuff, recently it's gone really stale, so I joined to try to stimulate conversation, then never really bothered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
