For the Sylvan Esso fans on this thread, Spotify said that fans of SO like Overcoats, another electronic duo with folk influenced female vocals. I reckon virtually all of you will. A bit more chilled out, like Sylvan Esso meets First Aid Kit - well worth checking out:

 

assume you have been here after the HBO show....?

A midnight Aphex Twin set on the park stage would be perfect

A midnight Aphex Twin set at the Park would be absolutely mobbed with people realising they don’t actually like Aphex Twin.

For gods’ sakes, stop doing this to yourselves, gang. It can only end in disappointment...!

I can, but I just won’t let myself...it’s too painful...

Off Park topic specifically, but I just can’t wait for the area drops next year. The Boomtown district drops reminded me of how exciting that model of announcement is...

Nice one @stuartbert two hats

Even if I had never been/was going to the festival, I would love this forum for the amount of new music I've discovered on here.

Absolutely. Far beyond the many bands that turn up on the lineup/playlist, I’ve picked up so many good music tips from eFesters via threads like this:

We can but dream, it's better than knowing its going to be "Elbow".....

We can and it is. But, credit where it’s due - after years of ever more waning interest in the Bury Boys, last year at the Park they were really, really nice! I hate side to side waving in crowds, especially when cheesily orchestrated by the artist, but when GG got the flags all waving together with his tongue firmly placed in his cheek it was very funny and a little bit emosh!

Caught The Orielles, Rolling Blackouts CF and Drenge last night in Cardiff. All prime for slots on the Park I feel. Rolling Blackouts CF were sensational live. It's really apparent that the record emerged from their live performances as they were as tight as a duck's arse last night.

Great shout especially the orielles and drenge.

Park needs a Beach House headline set. Mesmerizing tonight in Manchester. Reminded me how good the new album is as well. 

On it staying open later, I'm down, but I hope it doesn't draw too many more people in. My favourite thing about the park late at night is you can easily get around, find somewhere to chill out, and get in everywhere with relative ease. Its really nice to get away from the absolutely rammo SE corner and Arcadia. An Aphex Twin set up there is a big no no from me for that reason.

Exactly that. Love The Park. Especially when doing the festival solo.

(Although being in Cockmill this year means I’m likely gonna be hanging about at WH more this year - which is a lovely situation to be in).

AT - There’s always the worry Richard James is capable of doing something obtuse and barely listenable just for the hell of it. Although I’d hope he would at Glastonbury.

Yes yes yes. Saw them on Thurs and they were ridiculously good, certainly the best I've seen them.

Would need to be around / during / after sunset. 

Sleigh Bells and Melody’s Echo Chamber on before and we can all bliss out on the hill.

RBCF on Tuesday night next week. All the reports make it sound like I'm going to love it

100% yes. They were so good last night. Loved the subtle but effective lightshow they had too, so darkness required.

They're a recent discovery for me, so only know (and love) 7 and Bloom, so just wish I'd put a bit more effort into devouring the rest of the back catalogue, as they played a few I didn't know. There was one in the middle (think it might have been 10 Mile Stereo) which was immense.

It was a great gig, hope all show up on the farm

Caught Brian Jonestown Massacre at the Academy last night - sounded fantastic.

A late night Saturday slot at the Park would be brill.

Yep. Saw them in Exeter last weekend. They all looked thoroughly disinterested as usual but I really enjoyed the music. They still look like one bum note away from a punch up! They didn't get the biggest crowd in the John Peel tent in 2014 so I think an early evening slot on the Park is the best they can expect these days
