Zoo Music Girl Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I can't get the time off either, as I'm freelancing and its late notice, but I'm hoping I might get let go a tiny bit early as has happened before at this employer... TVOTR will be Impossible but I'd love to see Ghostpoet. Main draw for me is Patti (my sixth time with that glorious woman!) And MA who I've never seen. Are YF performing with them? How does that actually work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that actually work? every show i have been to at BST has been on time. which is a concern for me as it may ruin the atmosphere of massive attack. ya, i also want to know how young fathers are coming out with this one. hope its for more than one or two songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Music Girl Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Yeah would would definitely rather see MA in the dark. If everything was an hour later it'd be perfect. That said I'm delighted to be going. My first "festival" of the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Appleseed Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 right lets try and get everyone over the line with tickets today. how many on here are still looking for the good old £2 MA tickets? I remember for Ray Davies a few years back on the day and day before the Hyde Park gig they were everywhere so lets spread the word of any findings.

I've never been too fussed about getting right down the front, but I always find it fairly easy to get a good spot. We had a great one for The National. As brayshizzle says, the bar queues and crowding aren't too bad, especially compared to the Hyde Park events before BST (that Blur Olympics gig was horrific for queues and crowding). It's a bit soulless and corporate, and the sound levels are shite, but if you get in front of a speaker it's alright. That's pretty much why I don't want to pay full price any more!

MopeyGecko Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 (edited) Does anybody know if tickets have been sent out for the Saturday event yet? I bought a couple of tickets for my girlfriend and am a bit concerned they haven't arrived yet. Has anybody received them?

aj3000and12 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Looking at the app it looks like Todd terje is no longer playing the Saturday. Cat Power moved into his main stage slot. Can't find anything else to back this up though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Lawn Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Tomorrow, when we all raise one arm aloft and sing along to People Have The Power, all of our Brexit angst and fears for the hopeless maelstrom of shit this country is becoming will be abated for a short while, we will have hope. I say we capitalise on it, march into Westminster and install Jezza + Caroline Lucas as our new leaders by force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although... after the results, I'm thinking maybe people shouldn't have the power. If Patti can make a song about how great it would be the have a benevolent dictatorship, I'd be properly on board.
