paulwa Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Savages with special mentions to Kevin Morby and Imarhan, who exceeded expectations. Someone I know who's a record producer told me to go watch The Big Moon, who he's rated since working with them. Bad clash - I had to watch Lucy Dacus, who was great, but that's the one I regret missing from the weekend. What was the gig you regret missing?

Honerable mention to the two nutters in the Big Top , I think it was ' The Big Moon' , very funny and enjoyably bad. Sorry more than one Couldn't take my eyes off the Savages bass player... her moves reminded me of Flea from the Chilli Peppers. Which is a lie, because I was torn between her and Jehnny Beth.

Yeah I missed the first half or so of Thurston Moore. Was having too much fun at Broken Social Scene. Gutted I missed Teenage Fan club too. Not sure what I was doing for that one though...

juliadevitt Posted September 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 ok for each stage then : Woods - Teleman. I don't really like the Woods stage so managed to avoid it bar Teleman and snippets of other stuff. Garden - Ezra just pips Phosporescent Big Top - MONEY Tipi - Sunflower Bean Fav secret set - Ezra, least favourite - Jamie Lee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riverlodge Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Woods - Broken Social Scene Big Top - The Big Moon I Garden - Ezra I (but I loved Bill Ryder Jones set) Tipi - Ezra III (but close run vs Yak and The Big Moon II) Most missed - I had the Big Moon vs Lucy Dacus conundrum, but knew The Big Moon was going to be special so unfortunately only saw one and a half songs from Dacus.

Wiggso Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Gutted about missing M Ward but wanted something a bit livelier so went for GOAT. Wasn't disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine would be MONEY. The sound was excellent. We had a good spot and I found it very powerful. I even shed a tear or two! I thought they were great too, but surprised you were impressed by the sound. From where we were, many songs were drowned out by Savages on the Woods stage - maybe it was dependant on position in BT! By stage: Woods - Joanna. Might be my least favourite stage though TBH Garden - Ezra, followed closely by Thee Oh Sees, Phosphorescent, Sam and Jessica, Kevin Morby, Imarhan, Thurston..., i'll stop there as i loved pretty much everyone on GS and am rubbish at picking just one Big Top - BEAK, followed by Money or Steve Mason Tipi - Hard Skin - funnest act of festival Gutted i missed Karl Blau as he clashed ( i think with Phosphorescent) Edited September 14, 2016 by staffop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulwa Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) Woods: Savages (The Shins second). Saw a lot of strong acts on the Woods stage this year. Sound quality phenominal. Big Top: King Gizzard & The Wizard Lizard (for once, I didn't see a lot of acts in the Big Top) Garden: Kevin Morby (Imarhan second). A good Garden Stage lineup over the weekend. Was it me or was it a bit too loud and harsh sounding at times? Certainly nearer the pain threshold than the Woods stage. Tipi: Lucy Dacus. Quality of acts a bit varied in the Tipi, but there were some real gems. Was pretty down-hearted to come home afterwards, but feel a whole lot better now that a 2017 ticket has been secured.
