It would make sense to be opener as setting them all up will take a lot of time. Yep, I'd imagine it takes some dismantling but even longer set up. So they could have much more time for the set up and perhaps a slightly longer gap than usual between them and the next act? I'm sure they could make it work.

So far I'm at a group of gay, black men playing in an orchestra while calling everyone snowflakes. Seems a bit racist. I just youtubed them as I was also pretty confused....but they look awesome! So in for that ...although yeh, quite where they'd go is anyones guess?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOOLSP Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 Damon Albarn and the Syrian National Orchestra opened the Pyramid last year so perhaps hacienda c could do the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've heard from the band that they're doing three sets again via a message on their FB. Assuming they do them all on the same day again like last time I'm going Other/Avalon/Hell. Other for their main stage set because I think if they did JP they'd play too late to fit two more sets in that same day. The others are more guesses, but I think Hell would be bloody magnificent.

It will be MC Tunes doing the intro. I reckon it will be the Friday night West Holts headliner if they are there. Really can't see them only being on for just for the hour. As you can appreciate there are a lot of complexities and variables ro what they do, so they do exactly the same set at each venue. Not sure how much reorganising it would take to do the hour set. For me and my mates this would be ideal option opposite Radiohead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they're headlining those, so are likely to get a long time to set up. It's by no means confirmed that they're opening but you'd think that given the festival has form of having orchestras open the stage and they'd only be playing three or four up from the bottom anyway, they could open it without the extra time eating into the Pyramid schedule.

Tbh I'd rather they didn't open purely because it presents a possible clash problem with Manics (or such) opening the Other.

So Pete Tong's is the copy, not the original? I didn't realise Tong's wasn't the only one until earlier today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter who came first, it is always something I dreamed would happen. The quality of the renditions of House Classics by full Orchestra has been patchy (obviously if you think about it), but it has had its highs.

FuzzyDunlop Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Hacienda classical wasn't a patch on Cream Classical. I've seen both. Trance works miles better To be fair Liverpool Cathedral helped cream. It is some building to watch a gig in.
