I'm quite happy with those times! My only real painful clashes are:

  • Empress Of vs Parquet Courts
  • Goat vs John Grant vs The Avalanches (planning to watch the 1st 20 minutes of Goat)

It would've been cool to have seen Air but I'm not too bothered (can't be missing any of Beach House ;)). The same stands for Mystery Jets but I'll catch them at Glastonbury and watch Thurston here.

Goat/Avalanches is pretty shit (did say John Grant but then realised he was on Glasto lineup :P) saying that for £60 its not bad at all:

Yep, got a few mates going with me this time so should be good. I'm definately watching Parquet Courts, Steve Mason, Molly Nillson andThe Avalanches, I really can't complain about that. Will see how I feel when it comes to Air/Peej. Would love to see the whole of PJ Harvey but Moon Safari is one of my favorite albums of all time so seeing Air would be very exciting for me.

Got a £20 ticket a few hours before, and apart from the brief crazy 5 mins of rain it was excellent! Chose Beach House and PJ Harvey over the Avalanches and Air, mostly because the Rural tent was too far away and I'm lazy.

A bit muddy but a great day. Plenty of bogs, nice food and some decent beer if you are into that sort of stuff. Got there early. If you like a bit of Prince-esque funk check out a band called Bad Sounds. They were on first and I thought they were excellent.

avalanches was the biggest disappointment ever

My mate saw them in Oval Space last week and described their performance there as a car crash.

Was just them DJing rather than playing a live set.

    • Good catch this. Used on the Main stage on Saturday like a really cheap alternative.   Cracking little day though. A few Belgian acts to start the day (Atomic Orchestra, Kids with Buns, Selah Sue), some UK/IE midsized bands to end the afternoon (Gurriers, Wunderhorse, Wet Leg) and then an evening of Deftones, Florence and Underworld.   Can’t wait to be there and (at least try to) make the most of it.
    • I would be surprised if they don't, given 2022 was the twentieth I imagine next year is going to be pushed as the 25th anniversary so having the most local big name artist possible headline seems natural. Maybe SFA are being saved for then too?
    • I’d be incredibly surprised if she was in the headline conversation at all. At best I could say a high Pyramid slot but I reckon maybe Other headliner against a rock act like Fender or even Other sub (where I have her in my predictions). I’d say Gracie Abrams is pulling similar if not better numbers to Tate and she was third down on the Other last year.
    • I dont think headliner. Other stage maybe
    • Sophie Williams (journalist and Mercury Prize judge) was on Huw Stephens' roundtable last week, said she'd love to see Overmono headline Green Man. Does feel like it's bound to happen. 2027 is surely on the cards seeing as they're about to release a new album
