Sean1234321 Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Would have loved to have seen them on the Garden Stage again; that set they did in 2019 was mesmerising. Still, will be a great start to the weekend no matter what stage they're on 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to admire them attempting a European tour in the midst of all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomos_ Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Kikagaku Moyo into Stereolab will be a great Thursday night double! Managed to miss KM a couple of years ago, looking forward to them especially Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was listening to Anteloper the other day, trying to educate myself on the lesser known artists. Loved em or him. Whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Kikagaku Moyo on the Garden Stage at sunset last time round was one of the great gigs. Them and Stereolab is a cracking Thursday evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancers Stand Very Still Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 I had a bit of time this morning so I've set up a Clashfinder (https://clashfinder.com/s/eotr2021), with placeholder times for now from previous years to save time later. I'll add the rest when the day splits are released, but if anybody else gets there first on that day then obviously feel free! 🙂 I've also added the Thursday acts above (subject to change). 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great work, thanks! Sleaford Mods are playing the saturday btw so we can put that one in! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 With only 29 days to go and a tonne of other things for them to think about, it feels too late to be adding more than a band or two at this stage. And all bands will have been booked for a specific date. So would love the day splits before the week is out, c’mon guys, Green Man had theirs out by now!

Losing my hair Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 British Sea Power have just announced a gig in Milton Keynes on the Thursday after EOTR, so they must be available for the weekend if they're looking for replacements. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be awesome... I *think* the MK gig is their first to go ahead since they played St Leonards last March, would be good if they can squeeze in a set at EOTR too.

The Nal Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Slift and Los Bitchos would be nice additions. Both in town so to speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've a nice little tour coming up (also got a ticket to see them in Bedford in October - lost count of how many times that's been postponed) and so a warm up gig at EOTR would go down a treat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardy Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 No shortage of acts ready to play, I reckon. They're as itching to get back out there as we are. Not many bands would turn it down if they got a call from Simon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxialac Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) Spanish study has shown that people attending outdoor festivals with antigen testing and no social distancing were 76% more likely to get covid. Not saying for a moment that EOTR shouldn’t go ahead but is worth acknowledging the risk is higher. Edited August 4, 2021 by xxialac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tune-Yards also have the Thurs on their website. But they also have a date in Edinburgh the preceding Sunday, which has been cancelled, and a date in Halifax on EOTR Sat, from which the venue has removed them from the bill. So seems pretty unlikely that they'll be there at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has been said, there must be plenty of eager UK bands ready to step in, but it takes time to sort out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRockRick Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) As far as i can see from the above, everyone is down to play on Thursday and we're then down to eating cake and drinking tea for the rest of the weekend.

Lucanesque Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 TBH, I'd be up for a festival like that... most of the people I'm going with to EOTR I've not seen since Glasto 2019, so music, tea, cake, and general nattering will be proper food for the soul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Electric Picnic canceled, dont think itll have any impact on the lineup (hopefully) as they rescheduled it for a few weeks later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
