Saw Mega Bog supporting Big Thief last week in Brighton.

Big Thief were fantastic.:D

Mega Bog on the other hand I won't be worrying about anyone clashing with :unsure:

 

 

I saw both in Bristol and agree with you on both counts.

I'm seeing Josefin Ohrn on Friday, which reminds me that we're low on the psych band count at the moment.

he's got one or two decent songs but he just seems incredibly arrogant with a huge ego.. the whole wise-guy satirical-poetic-prophet-of-the-left schtick is just irritating too.

 

still, each to their own.

I see there is some cross over with the Electric Fields line up. Do you think we might see a few more of these artists? Would like to see Frightened Rabbit and British Sea Power again.

 (sorry WM Hall this wasn't in reply to your post but the only way I could post using my phone).

American Football have a very short UK tour starting in Brighton on the End of the Road Friday.  Might be an option for the Thursday night.

Saw them in 2015 at Gorilla in Manchester. They performed an extra 'matinee' show on the day of their gig because of the level of demand. Slightly strange experience to be at a sold out gig early on a Saturday afternoon, at least outside a festival, but was still enjoyable!

An excellent evening at the Concord last night for the Drive by Truckers. Played a mix of tunes from several albums, including 4 from Southern Rock Opera. Also a timely cover of gimme some truth by John Lennon. Good support from a band I hadn't heard of called Eyelids, who are well worth a look at.

Third headliner clue - 'we'll all be waving flags during their set.'

The national?

British Sea Power? One of their songs is 'Waving Flags'? Although are they big enough to headline?

I love BSP, really do. But a Woods headline slot would not constitute a "doozy" for me. They have played many times and I cannot see that their stock has risen to headliner status, not for a festival of EOTR's size anyway. They are also playing lower down the bill on many other festivals this summer, most of which I would consider to be smaller and/or less prestigious.

    • Skylink is 24 hours... But the skylink will drop you off at Pegasus business Park or EMA (East Midlands Airport) where you'll have to use the Download shuttle link, which isn't 24 hours. The last shuttle from the Download transport hub to EMA is 12:15 TrentBarton / Local bus info here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/download2026   Skylink Derby / Leicester / Loughborough timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/services/skylinkderby  Shuttle timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/userfiles/hotel.pdf If you miss the shuttle, which is very doubtful, you'll just have to find another way to EMA / Pegasus business park, maybe a taxi. You could even walk to EMA from the Download transport hub, wouldn't take too long. Just make sure you use the airport's 'circular path' instead of the dangerous roads.  I walk the circular path often, it's nice and easy. I would post instructions but I very much doubt you'll miss the shuttle, and if you do, it isn't hard to work out. The footpath is clearly signposted from directly opposite / across the road from where the download map has labelled "Pickup and Drop Off Exit." 
    • So for Harry Styles it was actually a plastic bag that basically blocks the view of the front and back cameras. You can still use the phone screen. It's much easier than using lockers, especially for people leaving for the last train etc    I think it's basically reliant on the threat of security kicking you out if you start filming.
    • Hey, does anybody have a joining link for the WhatsApp group plz? I know the secret sets get posted there but have a new phone and number
