I reckon he'll end up late early evening Other which is good for clashes but will be a worse set. God please no... That would be utterly shite!

It'll be interesting to see his Coachella set tonight as he's on at a similar time there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder how many acts specify the Friday as they want to spend the rest of their weekend at the festival. Plus there's a fair few doing Hurricane/Southside who would prefer to do the Friday here then disappear to Germany for the next 2 days as that's obviously the best fit logistics wise.

Don't see Bonobo being late early evening Other at all, the set will be lost, Park headline is my guess. 39 minutes ago, kingcrawler said: That's my thinking too, avoids a big clash (though it is Friday there's always something) but far from an ideal time for it.

SwedgeAntilles Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 By no means the biggest ATCQ fan in the world but that's undoubtedly a pisser. Anywhere else on the bill and I'd have been there. Fucking Glaso Fridays man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasperella Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 How long does a west holts sub usually get? Watch half of AP and then leg it over to Radiohead?.....where my friends will undoubtably have a spot from the XX. I will just have to find them :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there was a clash last year. I ended up watching Dj Luck and MC Neat @ the blues. It was cold, wet and utterly miserable. Contrast to the year before when I was watching the glorious Hot Chip. Nothing really tickling my fancy for the Friday this year. I would watch ATCQ but could easily give them a miss if something pops up on the Glade.

DownboundTrain52 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 ATCQ are a weird one. I'd love to see them and imagine that in a decade, I'd look back on missing them as a bit of a WTF moment - but at the same time, there's enough elsewhere on the bill that'd I'd probably end up skipping them, even if it weren’t Radiohead. Cruel fate but one decision easily made. Of course, when Thom's voice ends up being crap and they don't bother with FPT, I may regret it But if FPT happens and I'm not there, I'll kick myself for a long time.

CaledonianGonzo Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 FWIW Bonobo just performed in daylight on the Main Stage at Coachella, so it's something he's obviously comfortable with.

Potential Anderson .Paak into Tribe is the BEST news. I think a WH treble is pretty much certain for me, there's not really anything I can think of that will keep me away from ATCQ or The Jackson 5, and for Sunday I'm not interested in Ed Sheeran or BBK, and as much as I love Metronomy I've seen them loads, so with the Park's early finish there'd have to be something unexpectedly brilliant on the smaller stages or shite on WH for me not to be there.

Who needs MJ. I'll have a look but I'm very much take a lead singer away and it's not the same. Not being funny man but I've just seen some clips of old and new and without Jacko doesn't come close, maybe because I'm a big fan but I don't reckon it it.
