Top work :D 

Hoping for full orchestral Sgt Pepper malarkey. They'll probably play Acoustic again but would love Park or earlyish on Pyramid.

I've caught them six times and they've never disappointed, best time was probably the Royal Albert Hall where they had a string section and choir; considering the technological limitations and poor sound The Beatles suffered throughout their touring period I imagine seeing the Bootlegs is actually a more enjoyable experience

Oooh really? Neil (I think)  heard they weren't doing it at festivals

it wasn't the band I got word on, but the band with orchestra doing Peppers. It's not impossible I was told a porkie because that's what he felt he had to do - tho I don't think so - but the source itself on this couldn't be better.

Anyway, it looks like the bootlegs are playing. :)

And on the basis it's not with the orchestra, it's bound to be in acoustic as they're regulars.

the fisherman's friends in to the bootleg beatles last year in the acoustic was exceptional.

on a similar vein I'm hoping the symths will be there again this year, couldn't even get near the tent last year! great singalong outside though :D

Somehow managed to get in the tent for this and it was indeed excellent - was stoked that they got a decent Thursday slot rather than their usual pretty much guaranteed to be missed Sunday morning slot. Hoping they return on the Thursday again this year

    • A question has crossed my (questionable) mind;   Has the size of the Green Fields remained the same as other areas have expanded / been added on to, since say, 2014 (the last time that I attended)? Are they 'lost' within, or well attended?    That's actually two questions. The second one just slipped in at the end by taking advantage of my lack of means to stop it.    
    • I'd say the same about Kylie.    Annie would be awesome, Duran not so much, and on the issue of them wanting a beanie slot, that probably rules out a fair few others who I think would fit the bill very well... and are legitimately more entitled to a headline, and/or too expensive.   Was just about to suggest Chaka Khan, but see @Gnomicide has beat me to it!    What about someone like Bryan Ferry?
    • It's certainly gone more that way, but then they went completely in the opposite direction and had Cat Stevens.
