Yeah I wasn't suggesting Park really, just pointing out that it's the only stage big enough that fits that time so probably no point working out his slot based on that. I'm with Dental on that if that time is correct there's just something different happening with WH timings like a mammoth EWF set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a gander at a couple of their placings on different festival clashfinders, it doesn't seem like they do mammoth sets. Not the two-hour-plus that this would require anyway. Dunno what else it could be. Unique collaboration jam band maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If ELO play at the same time as Lionel and Kamasi has the standard hour long slot them he should finish right as ELO start. Are ELO not finishing at 18:40pm according to St.Etienne (who are starting at 19:00pm)? Making ELO's starting time appx. around 17:00-17:15pm?

FloorFiller Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Kamasi on at 3pm is good news - avoids the inevitable clashes later on in the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Though I didn't really picture him headlining anything. Textbook mid-afternoon act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 As somebody pointed out, it's very odd that a jazz magazine would have specific West Holts stage times at this point isn't it? Maybe they just had some duff info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they just had some duff info. I'd guess they got that info from one or more of the artists mentioned (or 'their people'), and where they thought by the time it was published it wouldn't be saying anything that wasn't already announced. Because Glasto makes its announcements in the adhoc manner it does, it must be a pain trying to keep all booked acts strictly to that announcement plan.

kingcrawler Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 http://www.itb.co.uk/artist-tour-calendar/jamesblake That's us got another one of the 8 West Holts acts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Joyous news. I'm bolted on for Adele, so was hoping nothing unmissable would be happening on the Holts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theDandy Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) Who we saying for the 8 acts so far then? James Blake // Earth, Wind & Fire // Kamasi Washington // Gregory Porter // Laura Mvula // Ernest Ranglin // Baaba Maal // Rokia Traroe? Edited April 14, 2016 by theDandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Floating Points is also looking pretty likely, so maybe Laura Mvula is elsewhere. Or maybe Baaba Maal. Not impossible that he's on the Pyramid early on. Last time Rokia Traore played she was on the Pyramid rather than West Holts, but this time around I suspect she'll wind up at the Holts.

Gucci Piggy Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Yeah I have those 8 with FloPo instead of Laura Mvula (her on JP). I considered Baaba Maal for Pyramid but tbh I know nothing about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
