Whittick Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Not sure if there is a thread yet, but surely Eavis should be looking at getting the Avalanches in for Glasto 2017. Released their first album in (I think) 16 years, and it is fantastic (as all their stuff is), I would be gutted if they weren't booked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlands Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 What are their live shows like? Do they play arranged versions of the records or just fanny about with a mixing desk? Probably my most played album this year, it’s got a few duds but the best bits are at the tippermost of the toppermost of their stuff.

Think they are planning to tour properly in 2017 playing live as there were some visa issues this year i think. Edit: also there is already a thread for The Avalanches Edited September 14, 2016 by rhg_99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 I can't believe they'll be as good as they were in 2001 when they had DJ Dexter on the decks and when mixing 'hit' classic tunes was a new thing (which 2manyDJs promptly ripped off) - 'jawdropping' is the word I use for that show - but hopefully it'll be decent.

For me there's a fairly short list of clashable artists that could play. As long as they're not headlining a stage on the Friday, I expect I'll be there.
