Saw Benjamin Francis Leftwich in March and he was fantastic. Would definitely recommend. 

Huge booking for this stage. Guess he’s playing a main stage & afternoon there?

After last time I thought they may have moved Rhythm Of The 90s to a bigger stage that can cope with larger crowds, somewhere like Sensation Seekers. Having ROT9 followed by Wheel Of Four Tunes on Sensation Seekers on the Thursday night would be epic! I know they clashed last time but think they missed a trick by having them on at the same time. Hopefully they won't clash again and they don't play the Thursday as by the sounds of it it was dangerously crowded at Croissant Neuf with little else on across the site.

Sophie and the giants.... on first listen I’m really enjoying them.  Sound similar to Florence and the Machine

Did we have info that Rhythm of the 90s are doing the same Thursday slot (or any time on Thursday) a while back or am I imagining that?

No point even bothering if they are.

It wasn't dangerously crowded.  Very busy though, we arrived just as they started and security had linked arms round the tent and were doing one in one out.  Only took a few minutes for us to get in though - it was warm!! in there but enough space and a great fun gig

[Yokel Again]

Hip Route are local to us and a great little band.

Rhythm of the 90s was possibly the worst gig Ive ever been to last time on the Thursday, seriously overcrowded, felt like you'd been in a sauna for a couple of hours and a constant stream of nobs trying to squeeze through you when you were already face to face with randomers to the point you could taste them and couldn't move anymore. Ill be avoiding that like the plague this time around.

We listened from outside with plenty of space. Definitely not wise having them on the Thursday again

Real shame to hear all the reviews of Rhythm of the 90s. I really fancied it (and did last year) but can't be doing with that aggro.

[TiZuff]

I’m surprised they are in the same tent considering how rammed it was last time . But it was so good !

Yeah, its a shame because the band sounded decent enough but you couldn't really enjoy them in that condition, we did about four songs and then got the hell out of dodge. 

Might work better if there was more alternatives on the Thur night to spread people a bit more on on a different stage/night I think they would be quality but that just wasn't enjoyable at all.

Really surprised by this and some of the other comments above.  We got to CN about 3/4 the way through the act that was on before, when the tent was probably about 3/4 full.  Walked straight to the barrier front right and had a whale of a time to Rot90s - totally oblivious of any overcrowding behind us.  I think (again) it was that strange phenomenon where there is overcrowding at the edges - but space to move closer to the stage?

Anyway, we'll be trying again this year - might have to get in even earlier though...

They told me they were - that was a few months back.

[Pinhead]

Is it easier to ask where Mik is not playing... Will try for Mad Dog I reckon.

FOS (which stands for Full of Shite, honestly I know them) Brothers are absolutely tremendous and do a brilliant version of Frank Zappa’s the Torture Never Stops, they’re playing Friday night which is a bit of a bastard cos I want to see Eric Bibb and Nick Lowe over at the Acoustic stage. Hopefully they’ll be on in the wee small hours.
