Quark Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 I hate Tuesdays as a rule. Worst day of the week by a country mile. This is all pleasing me today. All of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbadger Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 How big is the Avalon tent? Already got anxiety over how many people are going to try and see Frank Turner. Met my missus at the first Lost Evenings and its her first Glastonbury, couldn't have asked for a better Friday headliner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my head it's similar size to JPT, but I may be miles off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Turner is a great option for Friday night though! Is this for definite? That's a hell of a clash potato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its saving grace is that when the sides are up the audience can spill out all over the field. Sure, you can't see anything from out there, but you can hear fairly well and pick up the vibe a bit (and there's always a great vibe in that field anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 According to this thread below, JP 10k, Avalon 3k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

found home in 2009 Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Frank Turner is going to be rammed isn't it. When he was just rumoured I wasn't fussed, love his music but have seen him about 10 times. But the idea of him headlining a small stage has got me really excited. Hope the Friday info is true as Saturday headliner is clashtastic. Though also hoping Tame Impala aren't headlining the Other on Friday as I'd like to see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dondo Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Great line up- particularly looking forward to Ibibio Sound Machine as saw them a few years ago at Deershed and they were an absolute highlight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ourkid1984 Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Surely Frank Turner will be playing another stage as well which will presumably ease the crowd congestion at Avalon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazwwe Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 From whats been said on here and by the man himself to a few people he'll be playing multiple shows. Could see him somewhere on the Other/high up JP on the Sunday and doing a acoustic set somewhere on the Saturday like he did with strummervile.

Reckon it's in the balance whether she'll be there this time or not Saw a tour poster of theirs with just the other two on it so I’d say Fahey’s out. There’s a new Shakespears Sister album coming out which probably explains that. 2 hours ago, Gnomicide said: It'll be their alternative legend/novelty slot I imagine. I think that's usually Saturday Afternoon? Sunday. Although this begs the question; where will Jeff Goldblum play if not here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
