Is your God a DJ ?

My God's a guitarist who only uses 5 strings but for the sake of this conversation, yes.

This is only of a fellow eFester though, I have no idea how likely.  They do some bizarrely popular for an act with only 2 songs, and they sound the same.

Saw them at Womad back in the late 90's. For a band with only 2 songs, they were absurdly good! One of those 'really great in a field' bands! Fair play if BT have got them, as they usually play much larger (and expensive) events...

Tbh BT is the sort of festival where I might just give them a go on the basis that if I'm not enjoying it, it's so quick to get somewhere else.  And I must admit that when I listen to festival playlists, there are many songs/acts where I think "ooh I like this" but then can't quite imagine listening to it in a field or tent but only relaxing at home.  And equally, vice versa.  There is music I wouldn't listen to at home but live is fantastic!

Oops typo - or brain freeze, one or the other, have changed it now.  Doesn't sound like we'll know the other main stage headliners then though, Faithless or not.

[Nobody Interesting]

Maxi Jazz seems to be doing  a few solo DJ sets next year. Maybe he is doing the Woodland and 2 and 2 have been added up to give Faithless?

Don't think so - they said "Woodland headlines and some other acts" though I thought they'd said there would be loads announced.  Maybe two announcements in December?

As much as I don't think Bearded would book these clowns, just the thought of it has put me in a bad mood...

You've done well. ☺️

• British ?
• Currently known to be playing festivals this year ?
• Have they headlined other major festivals in the past ? 
• Rock , Indie , or other ?

On the subject of which Miami Steve VZ has promised UK dates in 2019 for him and "The Disciples Of Soul"...
