That's really good. If I lived in Edinburgh I'd be all over this. Sunday looks particularly good. Interested in The National, Mogwai, Bombay Bicycle Club and Black Country New Road. And clashes depending I'd check out Simz and Self Esteem potentially.

For some reason I can't drum up much interest from my mates but even if I'm on my own that Sunday is worth a day ticket at least.

For me its pretty ho hum.  As someone who went to the original Connect up at Inveraray Castle I was looking forward to the line up, but - a few acts aside - I'm struggling to muster up much enthusiasm for it.

Hmmm, given how starved Edinburgh is for decent gigs I really don't think you can knock it. Yes there is nothing that is particularly novel but there are lots to like even if you've seen em all before. I hope they can shift tickets and make it a success.

Definitely.  

I may try to pick up a day ticket closer to the time.

Daft question but have Stereophonics been ruled out of the sub pool?

If they're willing to take a support slot at BST then can't seem the turning their noses up at one for Glastonbury...

NME interview the other day said they haven't had a call, so out of it for this year, though wouldn't be surprised to see them do that in the future. They were subbing V Fest (before Kings of Leon twice!) about 10 years ago so I was surprised to see the talk about them only accepting headline slots a couple of years back. 

I think they'd be a good Other headliner too - similar to Pet Shop Boys etc. 

I know they're not fashionable but I think they've got better and better as a live act over the years - I really like some of the later tracks, as in the past few years, not necessarily the ones that came after the first couple of albums. I'm seeing them in Manchester next month and really looking forward to it.

every time I see Big Thief I’m like ‘no way are they gonna be better than last time’ then they go and blow that thought out the water. 
 

Gonna be a must see on the Park. 

Very excited for Sunday in Bristol. They don't disappoint.

I don’t think it’s so much them being willing to sub and more Glastonbury not wanting them to sub. I realise they’re still weirdly popular, but that would be a crap booking.

Why "weirdly popular?

Just a band who’s popularity I would’ve expected to have somewhat waned by now, but they’re still playing (and selling out) arenas pretty regularly and getting number 1 albums, and if anything more popular than ever, whilst other bands of their ilk slip down the Kendall Calling lineup year on year. 

Just now, GrumpyRaver said:

Because they're shite.

And yeah, this too.

Maybe they’ll be even better next time if she doesn’t have a 10 minute random rabble moment about planes or some shite. Don’t even know what she was talking about my brain shut down it was that ridiculous.

    • I agree but anyone under Rodrigo would be a sub in reality, that day would sell out in under an hour whoever is subbing, in which case Wolf Alice would make a lot of sense   The more unrealistic part of the scenario at this point is Rodrigo headlining   
    • All you can say is...     If he couldn't convince nations that really would've benefitted from the short-term hit of an up-front £50mil payment by this time next year, what hope did he have?   Guess we'll now just have to monitor and see if this could derail Infantino's plans to be re-elected FIFA President next year.
    • Spider-Man: Brand New Day   Highlight was a bloke reacting to the post-credit scene by going "Holy f**k it's Tobey Maguire!" despite the scene having no reference to him at all. Which made my close-to-full screening of the film laugh a lot.   Film was pretty good. It was interesting as much as an exploration of the ramifications of the end of No Way Home and being about isolationism and male loneliness, which I thought it actually did quite well. Though I do ponder if I liked it as much as the other 3 Tom Holland Spider-Man movies. Sadie Sink was good tbf, while I also liked Jon Bernthal as Punisher, enough that I might go watch his Disney+ shows.   Seem to have had a Marvel kick recently having also watched Thunderbolts and Shang-Chi, both of which I thought were pretty good.
    • Wolf Alice won't get headliner for Reading either, they will sub if they play, that is where their level has stopped I feel. Both TFG and Skyvip for the big shows this year was just a stretch too far. Every headliner this year is bigger than them too I'd say.   Agree with Capaldi I don't think Yungblud will be at Reading. I would guess Bludfest 3 or Download.
