Day Splits

[Baby On A Stick]

Beatlemania is showing closing the Woodlands both Friday & Sunday. The Sunday lists as the Sgt Pepper thing & Friday also has the Gospel Choir doing Glacelands.

Guess the Friday Beatlmamia is a typo? Gutted as wanted Glacelands for the Sunday.  

[ramragon]

Beatlemania looks good to me for Sunday night, seen the coral a few times so I'll probably skip them this time

[gorfield]

Saturday is looking good!!!

 

I am glad Sunday is crap ( for me) as I need to go home on Sunday..

Thursday bands are all well and good when you don't need childcare!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

liking the fact we got days splits so early,plenty I like on all days, plenty of clashes throughout the weekend though to decide

Im surprised by the negativity towards the main stage on the Sunday, I know its not the indie nostalgia fest that we expect at Kendal calling but never get a full weekend of that

Nothing but thieves> Slaves > Seasick Steve > Frank Turner > TInie Tempah isn't a bad run of acts in my opinion

Pleased White have got a main stage slot too

I think it is the divisiveness of the last two acts, if Tinie was swapped for the Manics there wouldn't be anything like as many complaints in my view. There was also a lot of people on FB who thought Frank Turner should be above Tinie.

For me there is only Nothing but thieves that I am half interested in seeing. I'd watch Seasick again if the weather is nice supping a beer on the hill and Mrs BR wants to see Tinie.

Happy Monday's just been added to Thursday line up 

[ramragon]

Happy Mondays are an excellent addition, good to see some 90s Britpop sneaking in

[Curlygirl]

Who is likely to be on the main stage at around 5pm on friday? I have to meet a friend at the gate and take her to the tent so I need to know who I'm missing! 

[Curlygirl]

I'm liking Sunday's line up. I didn't really know much from any of them but created a playlist as soon as the line up came out and I love all of them, especially Tinie and Frank. Not so much Seasick Steve. I've always thought I should like him, and I've tried, but he just doesn't do it for me. Someone mentioned earlier By the river had cancelled... is this true? Have I even got the right band?

I'd definitely give seasick Steve a listen live. He's not someone I listen to much but seen him live quite a few times and he's great! Very talented and endearing. Kinda sucks you in and has good crack with the crowd.

Depending on who's on when he is then I may do. Thanx

Thanx Ramragon. That's good as although I'd like to see them, not someone I'll be gutted to miss!

Yes they have cancelled...I messaged them on Facebook a couple of weeks ago and they confirmed they have cancelled all their shows for the rest of 2017...they should have been playing Chai Wallahs on Thursday...bit gutting really as they were one of the better reggae bands for the weekend.

[Chaarlie]

Has anyone got some pictures of their lanyard with times from last year? I can't find any on Twitter or anything, just to get an idea of times, I assume they're usually quite similar?

[cincoveces05]

I've got mine here but not able to take a picture at moment, what day/stages are you after?

Well as many as you can give me I was planning on making a clashfinder to have some idea and then I'll update it on the Thursday with the actual times when we get them instead of buying a program each for the family, anything you've got helps though

Edit - Also it may be a matter of opinion but they seem to have most of the big names for the glow tent on Friday?

Someone's started a clashfindet but it's in it's early stages.  http:///s/kendal2017/

Kendals been notoriously hard over the years to do clashfinders for so dont be disappointed if it comes to nothing

People would disagree but I don't really see the point of a clash-finder for Kendal, they're really useful for Glastonbury where it can be a 30-45 minute walk between stages, but the longest walk between stages at KC is what, 5 mins tops?

 

and yeah, mentioned a few times but you're blob on about the Friday Glow Tent, of the 7 acts i'd want to see in there over the weekend 5 are on Friday, but then I do much prefer House/Tech-House to DnB and Jungle which takes up a lot of Sat/Sun.

I thought Happy Mondays were going to be early on the Thursday?

[ramragon]

They are on before franz as far as I know, it's just someone's early draft

[Comfy Bean]

Anyone got news on any timings yet ?

The clashfinder still looks way out to me. I'm still interested in main stage start times as it seems to vary each year and for each day.
