Was excited.... '49 pages of self confirmed!'. I wonder who's appearing now?

Am disappointed.... Turns out that most of this is 'chit-chat'.

Perhaps, next year, we can have two threads.... "Self Confirmed" and "Chit-Chat About Self Confirmed".

 

There's absolutely loads of acts self confirmed on here. If you just want raw info, try here: http://www.efestivals.co.uk/festivals/lineups.php

At least this thread has a lot of comments connected to the title and isn't overcome by lots of people only commenting to get help in any potential resales.

The Little Unsaid has self-confirmed on Twitter, and he is pretty ace. Usually a good one to look out for on Wed / Thu before the main stuff kicks off. https://twitter.com/TheLittleUnsaid/with_replies

Fingers crossed for another Mik Artistik -> The Men Who Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing on Thurs in the Rocket Lounge. If it aint broke, don't fix it. Somebody who does Twitter want to mither them for us?

Agreed, no chit chat on the chat section of efests.

 

What's your favourite colour?

No, there was just info of them playing 3rd down one day and Friday/Sunday are only one's possible. It's looking a little like Catfish and The Lumineers 3rd down though, the latter do have a lot of fans but I don't expect subbing. 

Remember it was said ELO were doing a sunset slot by some reporting but its actually the Legenda slot.

ELO are actually playing the special 'teatime' slot'. That means that whenever you're having your tea on the Sunday, ELO will be playing. This hold true for all observers irrespective of the time they have their tea.

It's a bit like the speed of light.

Ben Miller Band playing Avalon Stage. With that name I thought they'd be a comedy troupe who do a cover of 'The Joker', but apparently they play "North Mississippi Hill Country blues, Appalachian mountain music, bluegrass, or pure country" and have toured with ZZ Top. Added to the playlist.

Yep, this one's right up my street too. Thanks Brave Sir Robin.

Wasn't sold by the description myself but perhaps I should have been, very much enjoying the Ben Miller Band tracks on the playlist. Will try and see them if I can. Always nice to spend some time around Avalon!

This isn't possible and you're lying.

People said that about Einstein.

[davefrompompey]

But what if ELO all sit down for a cup of tea together?

Or what if half of them have tea and half have coffee?

Mal used to be a regular at the Festival, and specialises in creating songs using unusual instruments and vocal techniques. A really interesting guy and worth seeing at least once.

Oooh missed that with all the boccock about running orders!

I had then on my list of possibles for West Holts (early afternoon-ish) but they are a good fit for Avalon. If you like Seasick Steve or North Mississippi All Stars, check these guys out.

Making my "must see" list for deffo.

Teatime is what you southerners call dinnertime. It's nowt to do with cups of tea........

I thought it was between innings, or perhaps earlier if it rained.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Being in Somerset it'll be a cream tea.  Or is that in Devonshire?

 

It's all Wessex, though, innit.

Biggles have self confirmed on the Facebook page. Wouldn't be the same without them!

Sorry, you beat me to it.  So happy they are there because I missed last year. Was gutted to think I wouldn't see them again!
