gfa Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Won't let me edit that old one, afraid I have bad news: Only doing 75 minutes at gov ball, in New York too. Not looking great for a 90 minute set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave Sir Robin Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Had an email from APE saying Strokes day GA is now sold out. On 4/23/2019 at 2:24 PM, xxialac said: I think he's already tested out the Jarv Is concept. It is mostly his new material with no Pulp songs, apparently very good but still can't see him drawing a big audience. When was Pulp's last big hit - 20 years ago? and it's a been over six years since they ended that reunion run so can't imagine younger audience that interested in him but then I suppose you could say the same and more about Johnny Marr. Probably second or third to last on one of the second or third stage. Yep, eg this was a 'Jarv Is' show: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/jarvis-cocker/2018/williamson-tunnels-liverpool-england-1becadb4.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Lotus Eater are a great addition to the BMTH day. Their last EP is excellent and I think that they’re going to do big things in the coming years. They are absolutely crushing live, too.

Any idea when this might be announced? Very unlikely that there will be one. They only announced after parties for the more dance-oriented stuff on Weekend One last year and have done the same this year.

stereomike2020 Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 You can download the APE app now. I guess the stage times will be displayed in there closer to the first weekend. I would be a bit disappointed if The Strokes only played for 75 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a trend towards bands playing shorter sets. I think that's all we are going to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilgamesh69 Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 I wonder if these are just placeholders or legit. Also, seems all three are on different stages? Gonna guess Hot Chip will be in the tent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johndenis Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 16 hours ago, xxialac said: Ah, well there is one Pulp song then! Yes I'm expecting a fairly obscure set of songs, even at his solo gigs 10 or so years ago I don't think he played what I thought were the most accessible songs off the debut solo album - eg am pretty sure the really melodic "from Auschwitz to Ipswich" was missed out. Of course there is still huge joy in just watching the great man in action. Are there now 3 main outdoor stages @dentalplan? Last yea at The National and Cave days there were just 2 and an act started on one just as the other finished - at least I think that was the intention. Also not sure where Gruff Rhys fits into this, as he's another great performer whose commercial peak was probably 20 years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 Firestone is an outdoor stage too. A tiny one. Pretty sure X Stage is confirmed not to be there weekend two. I don’t think West Arena will be there either with the current number of acts, just like it wasn’t last year. So WE2 should be East, North, Jäger and maybe Firestone if they add some acts. @Johndenis Gruff is headlining the JagerHaus so will likely not be too different to what I’ve put on the clashfinder based on last year. Quite surprising that he’s been squeezed onto the smaller stage but tbh it won’t be packed out with the rest of the lineup taken into consideration.

I thought Gruff was a bit dull when I saw him last year - and I'm a fan. Then again, I always struggle to engage with performers who play sitting down. Not sure why.

Sean1234321 Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 I'm not sure how the X Stage will work for the Strokes day...I mean last year it was just DJs wasn't it? This year looks the same except the Saturday where it's BC Camplight, Yak etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleetwood_Mac_And_Cheese Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 I've done the friends of All Points East thing. I'm going to be pretty annoyed if I can't claim a free Strokes ticket after the hassle of it. I've tried contacting them on Twitter and Facebook now for 2 weeks to no avail as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre91 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) BMTH are playing a 2 hour, career-spanning set including some older songs they haven’t played for a long time. That, coupled with Architects, WSS, Lotus Eater, RTJ, IDLES, scarlxrd and Employed To Serve being there is so exciting. I’m expecting it to be one of the best days of music in my 10 years of going to gigs. Oli has said on Instagram too that they have some ‘very special guests’ still to be announced as well. I really can’t wait. You've got to think as well that Download and R&L will be keeping on eye on the BMTH slot, especially R&L to nab a possible co-headliner for 2020.

Agreed, thought it was great in there for them and Confidence Man. Anyone have any tips from last year for stage positioning, in particular at the main stage? All seemed fine until about 5 mins before YYYs when it suddenly became ridiculously packed. Edited April 26, 2019 by Brave Sir Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
