i'll keep my eye out for it! which one is it? I've always thought about getting him sitting on the two bins shouting 'Cocaine!'

Im not holding back, it's going to be this with 'Good Times!' written either side. Possibly get rid of the crack pipe now i think of it

Brilliant! I'll be keeping an eye out for this

I reckon it'll come at 3pm which is of course the barren wasteland of the afternoon. Too long since lunch and still 2-2.5hrs until hometime. Just a period of time you need to get through.

Yeah I was looking at that too. It might actually be easier from a backstage point of view to have the stages on the Eastern side (nearer to the pyramid/other area) and walkways over to the West. 

I've thought about that a few times. People have complained about sound bleed before though, and moving all the tents to one side would probably worsen that...

Fact is though, Silver Hayes is the main access route for most of the NW campsites, and there will always be a crowd of people trampling though most times of the day. Unless they somehow seperate the area/stages from the main walkway, it will always have that throughfare vibe. Particularly noticable on muddy years.

Its a shame the shanty town/shack theme you get at The Blues doesn't run the whole way through either side so its like a big street. A New Orleans Mardi Gras theme would suit it well.

...unless they really run with the throughfare aspect and turn it into an actual New Orleans style street as mentioned above. Make it interesting to walk through.

It has to be 2pm...

I'm hearing 2pm and 3pm. Anyone else care for a guess?

Who thinks it's not today at all...?

Did anyone else, on first viewing of that poster, try to clean dirt off their phone before realising it's actually on the poster?

Me neither.

Dang it. Although it's not unheard of for an act to do an early Pyramid slot then crop up on a smaller stage later in the day.

no, I know of the path linking the other stage towards the beat hotel area, I meant is there another entrance to silver hayes along it that I have never noticed before.  There's one at the bottom near oxlers, which is where I used to walk from the Other to the John Peel before it got moved. But there seems to be another entrance on the right hand side looking at that map

I believe about halfway down now there is an entrance into Silver Hayes from that pathway, think it opened for the first time last year.

My tip from all that lot is "Parcels"

Cool, thanks. Never noticed it before so that explains it.  I probably didn't go through Silver Hayes this year, as my main reason for doing so is usually to get to John Peel.

Which I didn't do last year. At all.  Not sure how that happened, I'm usually a regular at the Jp.  I couldn't go in 2015.  Which means I have never seen the JP in its new location

Shaggy and mike skinner are all i take from that and no intention to see either.
