Yeah tbh I took this as gospel and didn’t bother to question it but the website is still saying Saturday. What gives @gfa? How’d you know about their day/stage?

Trying not to doubt but seems suddenly impressive inside knowledge out of nowhere

[the wonderwhy]

Might have come from their Whatsapp group chat 

[gfa]

I've sent @FloorFiller the proof - not sure when the website will update as I was the person who spotted the mistake and very quickly got told 'soon'

[Earth_pig]

Probably old news by now, Celeste playing 17.30 Saturday west holts.

Yeah looks legit. Obviously only I can be trusted with such tight lip information so you’ll all just have to take mine and gfa’s word… until they’re announced for Saturday Other and we both look like knobheads.

Haha - i'm sure the website will be updated soon enough, outside working hours now I guess.

Headliners might look a little something like this, then:

P / O / JP / WH / P

Friday: Billie / Foals / Four Tet / Little Simz / Phoebe Bridgers

Saturday: Macca / Doja Cat / Charli XCX / Bicep / Caribou

Sunday: Kendrick / Pet Shop Boys / Primal Scream / Burna Boy / Bonobo

These clashes. Jesus.

Nightmares On Wax got lost in the hierarchy of trip hop a long while ago. Thats why people forgot about them. Theyve been on Warp for 30 years.

 

 

edit: Bicep says the 26th now?

I'm happy with that. Bicep as my Sunday headliner on West Holts will be good.

I've got two slight concerns / questions that would be great if any Bicep fans or anyone who's seen them live can answer, as I'm fairly new to them and haven't seen them before.

1) They don't really have a huge hit which everyone will know, even if your a casual fan, so is there a key moment in the set? What songs should I look out for / will be the big parts of their set

2) A lot of their songs seem more atmospheric and less upbeat than other dance headliners. How does this come across live? Is there enough energy? I'd like a party atmosphere as my last headliner, will Bicep scratch that itch?

[gfa]

glad to be of service. may as well just say now but i literally just commented on their instagram asking what stage and then their management dmed me and said. luckily they said the day too as we could have fully thought it was saturday WH haha

The final 10 minutes which is glue into apricots (assuming theres no change) is a real peak. The rest is all build up for their 2 biggest hits in my opinion. If you want the party atmosphere its probably PSB i'd say

Nobody seemed to mind Jon Hopkins headlining WH in 2019. If you have seen him live youll get an idea of Bicep.

[TownesMR]

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but Bicep's website confirms them for Sunday.

EDIT: Now I see it has been posted already

Primal Scream at the same time as Macca is criminal. Praying they play at a different time slot.

Yeah. Jon Hopkins was my first Glasto headliner in 2019. I enjoyed what I saw, although we went to the SE corner early mid way through the set, and came back for the end.

Last 15 mins of the set are the biggest tunes. And yeah there will be a party atmosphere it’s a serious show.

Saw something dubious in the SE corner that made you change your mind and turn back? Don't worry mate we've all been there.

Is this even humanly possible?
