Day Splits

London African Gospel Choir confirmed via their website to be playing on the 30th. So that the Woodlands Headliner confirmed for the Sunday. I have been hearing really good review for their Graceland performance, so will be looking forward to catching them. 

 

Mexrissey on the the 29th, so assuming Beatlemania on the 28th

Good work.

Do we know for sure those 3 are headliners?  Shame if so seem ideal mid afternoon stuff to me.

Taken from KC Facebook page

JUST ANNOUNCED!

Yeah surely tribute bands are an ideal mid afternoon drink singalong. As Ram said, can't appeal to many over current bands.

My fingers again burnt by Kendals refusal to be clear about who is on when. 

Potential of Manics Coral Mexrissey clash is half the people I wanted to see on original poster!

Is it just me who's the cynic and thinking it's their way of making sure punters buy a lanyard on arrival? Other than that, what other reasons could there be so close to the festival to not go public with day splits?

the order on the website for the main stage is FF, phonics, manics then tinie which would represent Thursday to sunday in the right order

if we apply the same logic to the calling out stage the we'd have The Coral Friday, Loyle Carner Saturday and The Hunna sunday

I'll do some proper digging though and try get it all confirmed

 

I'm confused by this as I thought Frank Turner was headlining Saturday night?

The narrative on the website for Frank Turner has

Quote

The amazing Frank Turner is back in the fields with us! He is our most requested artist and we’re thrilled to have Million Dead singer turned folk troubadour Frank Turner headlining our Saturday night!

 

Yet he is not shown on the stage splits page, but is showing on the line up pages before Tinie - Co-Headline maybe?

 That blurb is from the last time he played which was the Saturday. The website management is so amateur. British sea power weren't listed last time I looked and bios for coral and FT are years out of date.

In other news Kate Nash is Friday and Editors Saturday.

Couldn't agree more about the website they haven't even updated the seperate stages section to add all the bands that have been added so still having to guess which stage some bands will be on.

Main stage still only showing 15 bands for example.

Saturday looks like a fab evening on the hill, Sunday looks like a fab evening for a stroll!

If that's Sunday evening/night it's either a roam around the rest of the stages or an early drive home!

Agreed. Could be a day to try the strongbow tree / Kracken bar then chill to the jams of Seasick Steve.

The Coral in calling out would be a master stroke for the Sunday night.

Am i the only Frank Turner fan on here? It was interesting to see the Facebook post last night from KC and the (assumed) headline and sib acts getting a mention apart from him. Kendal is still on his gigs page, so sadly for some of you it looks like he is playing.

The Kendal website this year is appalling, which is a shame as a few years back it was one of the best festival websites, if not the best. If you aren't a member of this forum i am sure many will be scratching their heads  about wtf is happening. For me the festival experience starts before i get there, and Kendal hasn't done a great job this year.

    • They are going to have Blink 182 for sure, early June upto around Werchter weekend I'd say for them. Two of Sweden Rock,  Greenfield and RFP are going to miss out.
    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
