Kidz Field out of nowhere

[zeppelin]

[Sasperella]

Basil Brush is like the Coldplay of the Kidzfield. Didn't he even get his own individual announcement one year?

He is pretty great though tbf. Basil for 2020

[uscore]

I saw basil brush at a festival last year.  He was actually quite funny. And surprisingly down to earth.

Why does Dynamo always play at the Kids field? His normal shows are not just for kids.

[JoeyT]

Good to see Dynamo on there. Think he's had some health issues so nice to see he's back doing his thing.

[rubick]

Expect more hardcore junglism from the man like Basil Brush.

I'll wait for Basil Brush's late night set on the Hell Stage. That'll be where the fun is! 

[Wooderson]

They'll need to beef up security this year. My 2 kids gonna run amok.

What does Basil Brush actually do at these sort of things?

The rumour goes that he's got a b2b with Flat Eric in the pipeline.

a little comedy show.  Lots of groany jokes for the kids, a few risque jokes that adults get.  Has a helper on stage for the physical jokes.  Gets kids up on stage for bits.  Fires foam and or water into the crowd. That kind of thing.  It's alright.

It's so unfair that we on't get to see Dynamo!! I might buy a child costume one year. I'm short, I could get away with it.

Psy trance

Can't believe they booked Sticky Fingers to play the kidz field with all the accusations of racism and abuse thrown at them.

He was quite badly bullied as a kid...which got him into magic ((his grandad, i think) to distract / prevent bullies).

Stoked he'll be there.

And Basil Brush.

And Katy Ashworth from CBeebies.

Brilliant.

A couple of little fellas and a cheeky key when nobody's looking.

[Wooderson]

Glasters doesnt get enough praise for their inclusive support of kids (and their parents) - another way they changed the festival game for the better. Any "fest" that doesnt have a substantial kids field element really are at the back of the class for me.

How old are yours chief? I’ll be interested to hear how you get on. Mine are 1 and 4 and it’s on our mind to bring them but not until the little fellers out of nappies.

Mine were 2 and 6 first time they went.  I can understand you wanting to not have to deal with nappies but a lot of people manage it.  Depends a lot on the children and parents as to when the right time is.  If they’re active inquisitive and not easily spooked, can cope with changes to routines sleep patterns etc. And you as parents are willing to miss out on bits you’ve done previously then you’re ready to take them
