Having said that, I would relaly like to see Elvana, so how possible is it going to be to find out what time a particular act is on and (assuming they don't clash with any headliners) get in and out of the naughty corner to see them. Or should I just not bother? Wait until the line-up drops, as said. The best way to get in there is watch the headliner in West Holts (or in that area) and then you've got the jump on everyone coming from the Pyramid and the Other. Having said that, I just left the Foo Fighters a bit early (must have been almost the end of their set as there were fireworks going off as we walked off) last time and still got in fine.

vintagelaureate Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 I haven't read every page but are we thinking late night Thursday/Friday morning for the Idles slot? They played late at Boomtown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no day confirmed but I believe they’re busy both Thursday and Saturday so looks pretty certain to be Friday night. Although they've listed the Gig in Switzerland for Thursday, they're actually performing on Sunday (i guess, Thursday works as a placeholder in this case, just like the Wednesday for Glastonbury). That would still leave Thursday as a possibility for the Truth Stage. I can totally see them spending two days at the site, looking at how excited they seemed to be when announcing their gig at Glastonbury a couple of weeks ago.

Beerqueen Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Smoove and Turrell just liked my tweet! Sorry, I am probably too easily excited by this, seeing as I don't have many followers or do much tweeting really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 2 hours ago, Heartbreaker said: I would imagine this late Idles set will a raucous affair, but I can envisage a closure of Shangri-La due to overcrowding, causing a massive issue for the rest of the SE corner post headliner. The queues are never great anyway, I think this could actually cause some issues a-la Radiohead / Pulp at the park a few years back. That's my biggest issue with the area tbh. With something like IDLES that's going to be predictably mental passage into and through the SEC, even if you're after a completely different area, becomes a nightmare. More than anything that's what puts me off it. Particularly if I'm a little way south of chewing the inside of my own face off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeppelin Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 If I don't head down SEC straight after the headliner I normally find something else to do til like 2/3ish. Just not any point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Jack Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Must confess I'd never even heard of Gojira until half an hour ago but am swiftly becoming a fan!

Hotchilidog Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Amidst all the understandable Gojira excitement do not overlook Venom Prison who to my mind have released the best death metal album of the year with Samsara. Samsara is an astounding record, crushing tunes, with a huge sound and great lyrics. This announcement by Earrache is sensational, cannot wait for the mayhem to ensue.

vintagelaureate Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 My group are pretty adamant they're not going to any late night set by IDLES (or the other one either), so that'll be an interesting night for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's absolute bullshit, I don't care how you try to spin it. A "safe space", at Glastonbury? I've literally heard everything now. You've never really been to the naughty corner. Stand down with your Piers Morgan style faux outrage on somebody else's behalf who doesn't give a fuck because Glastonbury has a zillion fucking stages. We literally have a thread where people who have been going for years talk about the stages they've never got round to seeing and you're choosing to make a stand about this? Bullshit man. 3 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfaragher Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 Just to cut through the metal / filth love-in. Properly looking forward to some Jungle / Soca / Dubwise raving on the Clash stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
