The 26th.....is that Wednesday? Do they normally have stuff on Wednesday night, or must the date be wrong?

There's 4 of them, they usually play under their own names individually in the Downlow

They're at Corbridge Festival (local to me) on the Friday. Apparently they're from glastonbury as well. If they're Williams Green/Avalon etc then fair enough, but if they're on a main stage seems a lazy old booking.

Their latest album is really rather good, produced by George Draloulias, couple of barnstormers on their.

They played Hell Stage last time, could crop up at Avalon or Acoustic but wouldn't be surprised at an early Other Stage slot. 

Fail to see why it's lazy.

There's tons of current acts that they could get on JP/Other ahead of them. I wouldn't expect to see Feeder, Dodgy, Shed Seven, Ocean Colour Scene etc at a major stage at Glastonbury in 2019 either.

The Cure and The Killers are headlining.

I'm not after Rewind Festival but it's long been a mixture of new and old.

Of course it has, but they're usually fairly selective with the old bookings and with one eye on their current rep. That's why Chemical Brothers, Radiohead, Manics, Suede etc are regulars. I'll have to agree to disagree here.

Well, yeah they are selective.  Local bands have an advantage.

Fair dos, I'll shut up before I come over all jntsrb but (sorry), in my eyes they're as relevant as Chemical Brothers i.e. not very but people enjoy them so why not.

I see a post of yours was screenshotted on Twitter yesterday by Thrill Collins, Stu.

I've never seen people on the Internet discuss something I've said as if I'm not there before.  Is this what fame is like? ? EDIT:  Of course, that's exactly what I did to them!

To be fair @ian the worm provided most of the salt, I just added seasoning.

Yep, you're now famous.

Ask @Gnomicide to ask The Thingy what it's like being so well known.

Or has Gnomicide had his official Tony Stark "...I'm Iron Man" moment yet?

To be fair, Thrill Collins now hate you. So it's a double edged sword this fame lark.

Apparently in 2015, a non-efests mate of mine heard someone talking about secret sets saying something along the lines of "If Stu says it's happening then it must be".  All you have to do is miss the festival, and take several days off work posting about secret sets.  Instant fame!

    • Tell me more. Last Latitude we went to was '21 - my son was young & had a wagon so we snuck good beers in that way. I remember there being some Brooklyn IPA on sale which was tolerable - are you saying they don't sell anything other than Carlsberg now?! 😳 
    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
