Nick07 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 If you go by the 'rules' from last year then Big Thief will headline Thursday. Out of the headliners, Spirtualized were listed last and so are they. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrippit Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Top line up and brilliant under-card, as ever. Not good to be excited 8 months in advance but I am. Warmduscher, Squid, Black Country New Road, Dawson, Dry Cleaning, WH Lung, Penelope Isles, Creep Show etc. etc. Better than last year IMO. Clashtastic.

Haven't followed them at all but thought they were great in the Tipi last time. Is Evan the singer?

The Nal Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Loads of great new stuff, loads of bands I haven't seen before. Agree with @scrippit, wrong to be excited 8 months out but fuck it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without knowing the specifics of what happened it’s difficult to judge, but he does sound worth a second chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustySpanner Posted January 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 That is my feeling too. It doesn't sound like he did any more wrong than multiple generations of front men before him. It sounds like he has spent a long time reflecting on what happened if you read more current articles and has had help. A lot of people still very angry with him though and consider Pinegrove as 'cancelled'. I have met and spoken to him (before this all kicked off) and would agree with the comment earlier that he did come across as a really nice bloke. They were really excellent last time in the tipi. Be interesting to see the reception they get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverlodge Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 I'm never ever missing this festival, but that lineup has made me verrry happy! Recommend listening to Dana Gavanski 👌 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WM Hall Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 not sure how people are struggling so badly with the Thursday headliner thing. last year, Spiritualized were down as a headliner, so they played the Thursday. this year, four headliners have been announced so one of them will play the Thursday. it won't be Pixies because they're the biggest of the lot. as for the line up as a whole - very indie rock, a step back from the increasingly eclectic line ups of the last few years. lots of repeat bookings and predictable bookings, too. still, some amazing stuff there. Little Simz will be great, glad to see that's happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone pointed out, it might not work with schedule for Pixies. Wouldn't surprise me if it not sorted yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Pixies aren't making it from Budapest to Larmer Tree Gardens in a few hours to play Thursday. Saturday night is my bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bright Eyes hopefully be garden headliner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done tangerine fields the past three years and it's amazing - the fact that you don't have to take a tent is the main draw, but there is also an indoor area with sofas (and mirrors/hair dryers etc) to chill out in, the shower queues are pretty minimal (I think the longest I've ever waited is about 15 minutes and if you go early enough you can usually just stroll straight up to them) and the area is right next to family camping so it's fairly quiet. Well worth it in my opinion if you don't mind shelling out for a bit of luxury. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDAD Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 How early has this historically sold out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retromoz Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 tickets booked. mildly excited. 2 questions......is there ANY reason why tickets for 3-5 year olds are £45?!? AND.....has anyone on here camped in accessible camping? If so, how quiet is it? I ask due to the proximity to the disco ship/karaoke etc. Thanks.
