Wednesday recommendations

[blackdog]

I have only got 3 Daft Monkeys on my Wednesday Clashfinder, any other recommended acts would be appreciated, thanks 

[MetaKate]

I recommend letting the whispers of the wind take you!

[Avalon_Fields]

New York Brass Band, Rocket Lounge 9pm, they’re great fun.

The Little Unsaid, Small World 5pm, he’s a lovely, melancholic singer

[hfuhruhurr]

Mik Artistik on 16:30 Croissant Neuf bandstand is a good one.

(and, the efests meet)

But, I agree with metakate - wednesday is the day when all the stresses of real life suddenly evaporate and daftness just kicks in.

I've got 1 thing on my clashfinder for Wednesday. James Brown dance party on the Greenpeace stage.

It's at 12.15 in the afternoon so there is about a 1% chance I'll actually do it.

That’s great advise thankyou although I’m not banking on it being overly windy (or rainy)

Yes true I thoroughly enjoyed Mik on the bandstand in ‘15

Cheers for that

I'l be playing with my friends in the Voodoo Tweed Cult of Your Mum sometime on Wednesday afternoon/evening at the Avalon Cafe. I'll be making my debut performance on double bass, an instrument i'd never played before 2 weeks ago. Their usual bass player didn't get a ticket so they've asked me to help them out.

We'll also be playing the Bimble Inn on Friday at 15:30.

Apparently there's a Bohemian Rhapsody movie singalong at 4pm in the cinema tent? That's where I'll be!

Is Avalon Cafe open on Wednesdays? I think I've somehow never realised that! Are there other stages on Wednesday that have no listed lineup where bands are on?

[Ryan1984]

Get in, set up and relax...

Then go and explore!

I hope it's open, otherwise we won't be playing to many people.

My friends did say that it's going to be an acoustic set, so maybe they're not allowed to have amplified music on Wednesday.

If your playing, even at a small stage, you still have to go through same ticket process?

I think it depends. If a stage asks you to play it'll probably come with a ticket, if you ask to play (like my friends' band did) then you probably have to buy tickets.

[Homer]

They need a new winger, a big, strong centre half and a shake-up in their youth development system.

[Greased-Up Deaf Guy]

I read somewhere 'they'll be no amplified music' but have seen dj sets on for Wednesday? 

How does that work?

Places open on Wednesday can have amplified music, but according to the last version of the licence I saw, sound systems are limited to 200 watts. Which isn't a whole lot.

Sounds interesting, I’ll try & check your band out 

[Gnomicide]

Acts are plugged in on Wednesday,  seen quite a few live acts over the years and don't recall any issues with the sound.

[mario man]

I do enough planning via the clashfinder for Friday - Sunday, with a little sprinkling of acts for the Thursday, so am leaving Wednesday well alone to just bimble and go where my mood & ears & spirit takes me... drift and enjoy ?

[chazwwe]

Wednesday is always the day to wonder around, get the feel for the place again, look at the new areas. Meet up with some friends and just see whose playing where i'm closest to at the time. 

[sime]

I have no plans on Wednesday other than watching Life of Brian in the Pilton Palais at 9.30pm. Looking forward to that ?

Ah okay, fair enough i suppose.
