Chems for me (but I’m lucky and have HC a few weeks later) Wu Tang as well. Hot Chip are big on this board but when push comes to shove, I think they may struggle a bit up against all the Saturday night competition.

If you took a sample from this forum, you’d think it was one of the all time great performances on the farm... The demographic here definitely skews 25 and up - probably majority 30-40 year olds - and at the dedicated / nerdy end of the spectrum. Not a real representation. The Killers will still absolutely wallop every other competing stage for turnout and buzz. This mans right. It’s the Coldplay phenomenon. If you believed this forum there’d be nobody there except a few people booing. In reality they usually eat everyone else’s lunch, crowd-wise. Same with the Las Vegas Duran Duran, it’ll be between them and Kylie for biggest crowd of the weekend. Like many others on here I won’t be there to verify that statement as I’ll probably be at the Chems. I love the ‘Chip but I think they might struggle.

Have 2 mates definitely at Hot Chip so hopefully could sneak into where they are. Then again at just love the atmosphere at Chems so much I never leave. At the very least Chems will finish before.

annax Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Having secured Ally Pally presale tickets this morning, I may choose something else on the Saturday night at the festival. Or maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid Loafers Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Got tickets for Ally Pally, now won't have to consider stressing after Chems to dash off to catch the last bit of the Chip. Would have loved to see them on the farm but think they will blow the roof at Ally Pally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkic Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 I'm moving more towards Hot Chip over Chems now. First Park headliner is a big draw, as is Four Tet on at Pangea beforehand. Liam G>Jungle>Four Tet>Hot Chip looks good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StLewi Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) Do we think the Ally Pally gig will sell out tomorrow? Money is tight this month for obvious reasons, so I'd prefer to wait, but maybe that's a silly idea? It's twice the size of Brixton Academy, have they doubled in popularity since then?

Hutchmaster Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) Would it be plausible to catch the first 30 mins of The Killers (from the back) then make it over in time for Hot Chip? Can't remember how long the walk is from Pyramid to Park. Assuming it's dry ground! Edited May 30, 2019 by Johnkhutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you'd have to walk past the Other when the Chems are on, which'll be pretty busy. Unless you head up through Williams Green, past Leftfield and the Glade and come in that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
