Predictions for 2018

A dream would be for the Liminanas to move into the slot as their clash with Richard Dawson is already a stinker ... and they'd be better in the Garden I think.

In reality I expect they'll leave the programming as is, and find something new for Damien's slot.

Is Ezra really doing lots of sets or is that just presuming based on previous? I could happily see him half a dozen times.

For me the fact he has done surprise sets before to me increases the chance that he *won't* do them this year.

Looks a bit quiet in here now it's kicked off but I was chatting to a lad at the bar last night from a band who played on the Rising stage at GM. He said that Black Midi are definitely doing the secret slot on Sunday night... really is worth a look.

Well my prediction was totally wrong. I'd thought Big Thief on the Garden Stage would be special but they really seemed thrown after some stage monitoring difficulties. However, my top 5 acts of the weekend, in no particular order, were:

Shame
St. Vincent
Stella Donnelly
Lucy Dacus
Sunflower Bean

What were yours?

After 10 years of attending, probably my best EOTR yet - for the outstanding depth of quality of the artists across the whole weekend, as well as the weather. Saturday was my birthday and it was like the dream day of music + sunshine + Bloody Mary's + Beavertown. It'll live long in the memory.

    • Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
