The Chemical Brothers 2019

[SighMo]

Wanted to buy this on preorder vinyl but thought it was too expensive. Listening for the first time now on Spotify.....gonna fork out the 28 quid tomorrow; it’s a banger.

Is the mega saturday night clash of Jon Hopkins / Hot Chip / Killers / Chem Brothers still on the cards?

Hopkins is Friday, but otherwise, yes.

I saw Hot Chip the other week and I don't like The Killers, so I'm pretty pleased!

What's the thinking / info. on where Hopkins will play on Friday?

JP I reckon, think it would go down well. 

[Madyaker]

I thought he was pencilled in for West Holts? Would be special.

Either will do me, tbh.

He was great on the Park a few years back. And it was relatively quiet as everyone seemed to be at Kanye.

Aye, not sure why but I thought someone was already on WH on Friday, think I had it in my head Lauryn Hill was doing it but obvs on the Pyramid now. 

WH or JP would be magic, was set to see Stormzy but very tempted by Jon Hopkins now.

[Madyaker]

Yeah I saw him last summer and it was truly special. I think Stormzy is gonna be flat tbh.

Hoppo on JP would be perfect.

A headliner trio of:

Hoppo - JP

Hot Chip - Park

Janelle - WH

Hooooweeee.

Go to Arcadia on Thursday night. They do an unannounced dress rehearsal on Thursday every year. I go every year. it's a great way to catch the show clash-free!

Really?? I never knew that even after 7 glastonburys! Good call, I will do that. Thanks!

Is it usually at a similar time to the other nights (11ish)?

If you haven't seen them before, the Chems' live set is fairly mind-blowing.

Saw them at Sziget a couple of years back and was massively disappointed.

Although, I was towards the back and the crowd weren’t really in to it. Fingers crossed they win me over this time.

Indeed, my mate’s brother works for Arcadia bar, so that’s how we originally heard about it. I’m sure it gets discussed on here too though. 

I think it’s generally a bit earlier - just after sunset. Get there between 8 and 9 maybe? Here is a pic of the mrs and I there two years ago, so it looks like that sort of time...

There no spider this year and it's going to be something new. I wonder if that will impact the rehearsal bit (I caught the rehearsal thursday last year also)

I would have thought if anything that would make the dress rehearsal even more likely! I''m sure it will be on - I've been about the last five years at least. My mate is actually working Arcadia bar, as well as his brother, this year as couldn't get a ticket, so I'll try and find out and post here closer to the time.

Ah great stuff, I'll keep a look out. Thanks!

It's funny that it's probably my fave and I've seen a few people say it has Orbital vibes. Love both acts but slightly prefer Orbital.

My favourite on the album. So so good. 

I missed out on tickets yesterday, so I’m going to APE instead, hoping they play an extended version of it there.

In other news, I'm hoping to get a Chemical Brothers tattoo soon.

No Geography is the favourite track of everyone I know that I've spoken to about the album. I can't stop listening to it! 

Even though I'm seeing them at APE I think I'm more excited about Glastonbury. There's something special about the Chems in that field! 

[fatyeti24]

I'm still really enjoying the album.  To use a modern term, there's a lot of 'fan service' in there.  But why not?  25 years and nine albums deep, I don't expect or want them to re-invent themselves.  I just want them to make a fucking good Chemical Brothers record, which they have.
