yaniv297 Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Generally I'm very, very happy, much better than I expected. Biggest (only?) big casuality for me is Richard Hawley, who inevitably loses the clash against Brian Wilson. I can't believe on Thursday I can actually see Algiers, Suede, Destroyer, Protomartyr and LCD, and it's not even that tight. The only questionable thing is Suede finishing exactly when Destroyer starts, so I might miss the opening songs. I even have time to watch Explosions/Vince Staples in between. Julian Baker is another miss, but she's playing Friday afternoon so I might see her there. In Friday, I'm delighted I have time to save place for Radiohead without missing anything big, and I can see TLSP after them (I was afraid they'll play before).

Messy Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Pusha T/Deerhunter/Drive Like Jehu/PJ Harvey sucks. Probably have to sacrifice the first two. Radiohead/Tortoise/Dinosaur Jr. is probably the main one for most people. Can see why they've done it though. Kamasi Washington/Air/AR Kane & Julia Holter/Parquet Courts are the other two for me. Could have been worse I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isco Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Bit of a dull question. Are there lockers on site ? Definitely up for Erol Alkan and Todd Terje on Thursday afternoon, makes no sense to go away and come back. Would need to take a fresh shirt or something with me. What do you call a DJ who only plays in nooks and crannies ? EROL ALKOVE LOL ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Todd Terje it is definitely only a DJ set. If Todd Terje was to play his regular live set it would be announced as Todd Terje & The Olsens and it would need a larger stage production.

tiffpietiff Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 How long does it take to walk from the Heineken to the Pitchfork stage? LCD finish at the exact minute Neon Indian start. Should I be worried? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In which case, I don't understand the excitement of seeing someone like Todd Terje on the bill. If it's a DJ set, then it could be anyone on the decks.

bobsyerunkle Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 Anyone know if we can get our wristbands on the wednesday? Also is the exchange only at the forum now or also in the city? Went two years ago and got to the forum on the thursday about midday and very little queue for wristbands whereas when we returned about 5pm the queue was quite big..

Tuna Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Quite a lot of annoying clashes but nothing making me tear my hair out. The Radiohead oldies clashes are a right oddity though - Dinosaur Jr, Tortoise and Shellac? Hmm. Worst for me is Kamasi/Destroyer. But none of my "must sees" have bad clashes really.

Bort Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Sigur Ros vs Chairlift and Julia Holter hurts, and seeing Lush means missing Cabaret Voltaire, Moses Sumney, Savages, and possibly a good spot for Radiohead. Hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bort Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Oh it's a sacrifice worth making, just sayin' since everyone is talking about clashes. Also torn between Explosions, Floating Points, Har Mar Superstar, and undecided between Air/Kamasi Washington/Suuns. Those are probably going to be last-minute decisions.

I'm picking mine up Tuesday so I can go to that Deradoorian show. Highly recommended if you're going to be in town for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
