Avalon lineup 2019

[Dixo]

So happy with this lineup. Can not wait for Bananarama. They’re going to be part of the Saturday night clash nightmare though, I can tell. They’ll probably win though!

Skinny lister on stage on Sunday at 16.50 Kylie clash right there ,legends slot usually 4 pm 

Seen them both in the last 9 months, so at least I get to make an informed choice depending on mood at the time!!

Sorry if it’s been said before , Reef headlining on Sunday - source Facebook question 

That rules them out for me then, I'll be seeing them at Bearded anyway.

[Fishman]

I'm impressed that you're able to make informed choices by teatime on Sunday. I'm normally well beyond guessing tent sizes by that time.

Only discovered the Burning Hell recently, but the lyrics really make me laugh and the music rocks too. Hopefully see them clashes permitting

Exactly! Fuck the Government is a great song which I've listened to loads since I've discovered it.

Sorry, Stu, no idea if she's played since the Shakespeare's Sister thing, least I'm not aware of it if she has

She sang with Dexys when they played the Acoustic Stage 2014 I think

Listen to this it’ll blow your socks off

Scott Doonican has said he hopes to also be playing the Avalon Cafe, date and time to be announced.

We saw them week and they didn't play this. I don't think they often do now but maybe at Glasto as it's probably their most well known. But even though I didn't know most of their songs I really enjoyed them.

[Badlands]

Is it not a Xmas song? Or is just a song that was released at Xmas?  I’ve no idea what they’re singing about - Latin wasnt one of the choices at Kenton Comp!

[Ayrshire Chris]

Spent the night on you tube checking out the Avalon acts I ain’t too familiar with. I reckon I could spent quite a lot of time, as usual, there. Mrs Chris is a shires fan so she’s quite happy. The dreaded clashes will soon be rearing their ugly heads.

Ah, but did the lovely Jill from pear tree productions succumb to Alan’s seduction? 

[sisco]

So Frank Turner headlining Friday and Reef headlining Sunday?

Was the thinking The Cat Empire headlining Saturday?

Avalon Cafe, Thursday night would be nice...

That would be ideal.

Wiki  -"Gaudete is a sacred Christmas carol". I seem to recall there were words about The Virgin Mary or whatever the Latin for her is.

Did they do ‘All Around my Hat’?... I must admit I’ll be one of those annoying people there for one song if they’re at a time that suits

They did and very good live it was too so worth it if it fits in. Sort of folky but with a rocky vibe to it. I can see me bouncing and jumping along to it with a beer aloft.

A friend and I spent most of 2010 ‘entertaining’ our campsite singing Ade Edmundson’s version of it, so already link the song with Glastonbury. Hope they’re on at a good time clashes wise

Probably my age/memory but I can't place Ade's version. And if you had told me in the 70s that I would be considering going to see Steeleye Span not once but twice I would have laughed in your face.

Avalon tent AKA the tardis tent, you can get thousands in there despite what it looks like?

That's very clever knowing, thanks Red!

Listened to @cb4747's playlist yesterday, very little on there that doesn't float my boat. Could do with putting my tent up there.

There has to be a joke somewhere about your partners being disappointed with your estimation of tent size
