marathonsteve Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 I have a sneaking suspicion that we will see the odd band or two from this lot at Glastonbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Keeping everything crossed for Michael Kiwanuka 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire Chris Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Surely we will see some of them. The Flaming Lips finish in Canada on 22nd June and are in Ireland in July. Would love a quick return for them. Gutted I missed them on the park last time. Kiwanuka, Goldfrapp, Leylines, Bar Stewards sons of Val Doonican would be on my list as well. it’s intriguing seeing all the festivals drop their posters and we are caught up in the frenzy of seeing who might join us on the farm. it’s unique to Glastonbury. Love it!😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluePaul Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Giving Bearded Theory a go for the first time this year - cracking lineup and good lead in to Glastonbury! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinhead Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Good bookings this year for Bearded. A good pre-Glasto tent test as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipsteak Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 I was considering volunteering for Bearded Theory, then it filled up before I had chance. I might actually pay for a festival for the first time in years based on that line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avalon_Fields Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 Bearded Theory gets stronger by the year. At the first one I think I only saw 2 acts, Hobo Jones and 3 Daft Monkeys...and now we have the Flaming Lips. Green Man - I see Lucinda Williams is in Europe in June so she must be a possibility, and Goldfrapp too as they’ve played Glastonbury on a few occasions.

grumpyhack Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) Hobo Jones and 3 Daft Monkeys are both excellent and good fun. Bearded Theory has a very strong line up which on paper floats my boat more than Green Man but it's a distance issue for me. GM is on my doorstep, relatively speaking. Also I have always been pleasantly surprised by GM acts that I've not really been familiar with. The bookers do tend to know their bands well.

Beerqueen Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 Bearded Theory is a fantastic festival. They get great acts - even the ones you've never heard of are fantastic. And the Maui Waui Tent have been some of my favourite festival moments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
