nice bloke, played a load of shows with him in the last few years... must have a chat with him and see if he can get my band a slot next year, closest we've got this year is a potential slot at a certain glamping site outside the fence which has a lot of potential to be soul-destroying, haha

Yak at WG in 2016 was hard work, ended up pitting in the mud. Ran up to see Ezra Furman at the park straight after and nearly died. I'll see them if I can this year but it'll be my 8th time or something so they're not really high priority at this point. I'd recommend them whole-heartedly to anyone though.

Cant remember if this has been mentioned but Self Esteem are playing twice. Saturday on BBC Introducing, then once on Sunday. You would say either Williams Green or early JP. 

Awoo, nobody has any excuse for missing her then.

BBC Introducing is a weird spot tho.

She said she's playing x4 on 6 the other week - she was on Roundtable.

Oooh these guys sound great! Hopefully on a reasonably early JP set? On and finished just in time for me to run to The Park and see IDLES would be pretty ace

I reckon if they play JP they'd probably open it. If they played park I'd re-prioritise, theres summit about seeing a band I love at that place that I cant get enough of.

I reckon they'll probably just do WG again though to be honest.

Big fan of this guy. Super talented, bags of character and I think he often does a jokey bit of crowd interaction where he gives away stuff from rider. Perfect alternative option to big DJs if you're cruising the naughty corner for novelty.

She just has 2 dates on her tour dates poster, maybe crows nest is one.

Crows Nest would be a good fit for Self Esteem if she's doing multiple slots. Would bank on Crows Nest or Rabbit Hole/Worm Hole for at least one of those 4.

Might badger her on Instagram messenger as she replied to me about a few of her gigs.

I have good authority that Georgia (UK) will be playing on the Park stage - if you haven't hear her new single "About work the Dance Floor" - check it out! 

 

Lo and behold - https://www.bandsintown.com/e/101198203-georgia_hb-at-glastonbury-festival

Strange as she played the same stage last time out and probably won't be that much higher. Would be a very different set I imagine, as her new stuff is quite different. The song you mentioned should be listened to by all those bruised by a lack of Robyn on the lineup. Here's a vid for the lazies.

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
