Just popped my head in there. I feel sorry for those guys, I love their passion for all things bleepy. Hopefully their prayers will be answered in the Beat Hotel, Stonebridge Bar or a surprise area not yet announced

And Ben's not even seen it yet, the poor lad.

Lack of Copperdollar is a bummer in the summer.

Hadn't been for a few years and it was top of my list for a revisit.

As much as I love D&B, the festival does seem to be saturated with it (and house) this year. I love all forms of dance music and would prefer some variation across the weekend

Yeah, there is a lot. Must be hard for those who don't like DnB when there's two or three stages all playing DnB within at SE corner at any one time. Personally I'll always gravitate to the bass, so I'm pretty happy this morning. Getting Noisia to do a live and DJ set over the weekend is a pretty good result, especially considering their live show will probably be clash-tastic.

The Rum Shack promise some surprises as well, so interesting to see what else they pull out.

Just on the common and the main areas, what time is the latest you can go realistically to get in? The Cave and Temple in particular?

I have a horrible track record of not getting in, pissed me off last year as they looked/sounded mint

Oh yeah,I forgot about eFestivals' resident technohead. He'll be distraught, but he'll still have a great time

You can always get in, it's just a case of the length of the queue (and if you can tolerate a queue in that state of mind). The Temple is loads bigger this year, so hopefully that might help.

I think this is all an attempt to diversify the music in the SE corner and split the crowds down, in reality it needed to be done*

* I'm also well out of touch and love techno.

Yep this is always my problem. One look at that queue in my restless wide eyed state and it's an automatic 'fuck this' from either me or the people I'm with.

I've often just wandered into The Temple past 5am when other places have closed.

But I'm sure you didn't mean that late.

[mufcok]

Yeah, I remember getting to one of them last year in the early hours (think it was The Temple) and the queue was just daft

Ended up hovering outside for a while, did see Michael Eavis getting escorted past which was quite amusing giving it was daft o'clock in the middle of the south east corner with music pounding out

Diversify the music in the SE corner, you say? Okay, more drum 'n' bass!

There's a great hip hop act in there in The Four Owls!

Yeah think whenever I've tried it's been off the back of the headliners through to 2/3am but I lose track of what time it is

[Deadendfriends8]

Noisia & Dimension in the common. Offffffft imagine the queues

2 more announcements then the biggy!

[CaledonianGonzo]

Gonna spend some time in the Mezcalaria digging all the sweltering, Latino sounds of....er...a metric tonne of jump up d'nb.

[rosssss224]

Jump up is actually from the South American rainforests. Throw a large stone at a tropical bird and i guarantee it will sound like Logan D.

What does it sound like if I throw a stone at Logan D?

Possible Cinemageddon will get it's own announcement?   Which would probably mean full line up 1st/2nd June?
