Guy Garvey

[JoeyT]

Solo album coming out 30th October with a tour early December.

 

Can imagine he'd almost certainly be playing the festival next year and would assume it'll be as a solo artist rather than with Elbow (which I know aren't everyone's cup of tea)

 

Where do you think he'll be?

 

Sunset at the park stage would be a nice fit but suppose it'll depend on how good the album is.

Seems like a good fit for The Park.

Park sounds about right, but probably middle of the afternoon. Similar billing to Gaz Coombes this year.

there'll be so many strings on that you may as well just listen to vivaldi

I was thinking that slot, as taken by Jimi Goodwin, but Elbow are quite a bit bigger than Supergrass or Doves aren't they?

I would say Doves were a similar size to Elbow. They seemed to have headlined the same type of festival and Doves seem to have had more "Hit" albums. 

I would also suggest Doves were far better than Elbow as well.

Thanks for making me cackle in the middle of the office

Garvey at the Park on a nice sunny afternoon sounds good though

I'd hope that won't count for anything, unless he plays a load of Elbow stuff.

Yes. My Mum asked me to put some Elbow on her iPod, which says it all really. I don't dislike Elbow, I just think they've stuggled to really kick on since SSK. Give me Kingdom Of Rust any day!

 

Because he's EE's mate he could end up anywhere really.

[mungo57]

my mate is upset with me for not wanting to go to the SBE gigs.

I remember paying £35 to see Elbow last time - not paying same amount again for Guy solo with 1 album and some Elbow covers.

Nowt wrong with a bit of Vivaldi!

 

Why not have a full performance of the Four Seasons mid afternoon Sunday on the Park? You could get that Nigel Kennedy fella.

[Mr November]

First single Angela's Eyes is on Spotify. Not a string in sight (excluding guitar). Plenty of drums and synths instead.

 

Bit middle of the road if you ask me.
