Any idea how if and when they'll be playing? Didn’t Idris pull out last year too? Or am I thinking if someone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richall1965 Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 If Lucy spraggan is headlining calling out (words fail me), with amazons and Tom grennan also headlining then she is definitely sat night cos amazons and Tom grennan are both playing y not on Saturday while she is 4th down on the 2nd stage on the Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globalist Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Is it just me or does the split make the line-up look extremely underwhelming? I know there's been a lot of criticisms elsewhere but when you see it spread over the different stages there seems to be an awful lot of not much at all. Aside from a handful of main stage bands, it looks like a line-up for a much smaller and cheaper festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Chief Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Bit disappointed Lucy Spraggan is headlining calling out on the Saturday night. Especially with Run DMC on the main stage I was looking for a decent alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footix2 Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Amazons against Libertines. That's a horrible clash in festival that barely has any big acts as it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There always used to be a good few in calling out I would be looking forward to, the odd thing in chai wallahs plus maybe 1 or 2 in House party. This year nothing really. Added to that the main stage is light as a light thing. Did shed 7 not play earlier years ago and now they are subbing Saturday night ? OCS were defo afternoon in the past and now they are also subbing. From memory they headlined Wickerman about a decade ago. Anywayz Thursday and Sunday look best for me and I wasn’t planning on coming down till Friday. Moan over lol :-) Dub Pistols got a slightly better slot this time round.

jamj Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Well I'm more than happy with that split, as always each to their own but I've got a good mix of what I want to see spread across all days and then against some chill out time, I can't ask for more than that. Really looking forward to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywayz Thursday and Sunday look best for me and I wasn’t planning on coming down till Friday. Moan over lol ? Dub Pistols got a slightly better slot this time round. Last time OCS played was an early acoustic set which pulled a pretty decent crowd...I've saw them about 30 times so I'm not going to complain about them being before the Libertines, but equally it wouldn't be unreasonable to have someone else in between the two. Likewise Shed Seven in a later slot is ideal for me, but with Run DMC headlining you'd definitely want someone else of note in there. BRMC would have been great. Lucy Spraggan topping the second stage of a festival that costs £160 for a ticket is more than a bit grim. Outwith the top end of the bill it's a particularly uninspiring, I think. I'd consider myself to have a pretty good knowledge of new/up-and-coming music and am a bit of a loss as to an lot of the names. As a general observation, I feel like some parts of the festival haven't really moved at the same pace as the increased capacity and profile. Not just the line-up, but the fact that the House Party and Twin Peaks are still so small, the lack of water points etc. I get those two areas are supposed to be quite intimate, but nonetheless it's bit of a bummer to be putting live bands in places only a tiny number of people can get in to and even when you are in it's generally unbearably hot. There's surely a way you could retain some of the spirit of them whilst move them to bigger tents. Anyway, all that said, I don't want to be overly critical as I've loved every minute of every year I've been, I'm really looking forward to this year's, and if I only see Shed Seven, James, OCS and the Libertines I'll be pretty happy about that so you can't grumble too much.

johnny-yen Posted July 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Does anyone have an official set of times from a previous year that feels brave enough to put this years acts on? The Main Stage would be nice Or if you scan one in, I’ll do it. Thanks in advance? Edited July 17, 2018 by johnny-yen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully someone can As the start time and finish time on the main stage will be pretty much the same. I had thought there were less acts on the main stage this year but apparently not ?

I had thought there were less acts on the main stage this year but apparently not ? you have been saying that since the first announcement but we counted and pretty much the same number. Major bonus for me are Dub Pistols on at a decent time, they were ace last year but played to maybe 200 of us. Thursday looks ace Sunday gives me a perfect chill on the hill (I have had 2 people ask me why Bob Marley isn't playing with the Wailers anymore!?!) Friday night straight from Catfish into HouseParty for Howling Rhythm ...Are the Baggy Mondays opening Calling Out on Friday??? Is this our Meetup sorted????

Comfy Bean Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Baggy Monday’s 11pm till 3am on Friday night in Calling Out. Probably start later than billed but you won’t get in the tent if you arrive late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
