I don't know anyone but Richy Ahmed but I love the area.

God that's a hideous font / colour combo

Guessing the tribute is to Andy (808 State) Barker x

I was wondering the same thing. Last time I saw him he was still partying hard.

Nice to see back2basics on there with Dave Beer. Not many that I recognise.

[1986]

Doesn't seem to be many opinions good or bad on this one. I don't know a name on there myself so maybe I'm not alone.

@Suprefan must still be asleep seems to always get the announcements first 🤣

I like it, according to the Lawks thread the designer is also one of the performers 

[gigpusher]

Tom Ravenscroft is the only name I know. I recognise other names but I assume just because they often appear on line ups.

Doesn't give much clue which venues are / aren't there.....

I reckon. Graham Massey and (I assume) his son are doing a B2B too.

Cool area but always find the music awful. Spend maybe 30 minutes there a year. Don't know a single act on there

Maybe I'm old

I caught some of Andy Barker as I was passing through in 2019 and had to look up what was on after the event as I enjoyed it so much. 

Not a huge amount on the poster I recognise this year but I normally catch something - generally as I walk between Shangri-La and Block9 - but will try and check a few out before the event.

For me, Animal Crossing and Mandidextrous. 

Wondering about RJD - is that an alias for you know who, a certain DJ AFX, @bennyhana22? 

 

Or is it this guy with 147 monthly listeners?

Ha!  Thought I'd take my moment!  Not that it's an area that means much to me.

I want it to be true but didn't he pull out of playing Arcadia? 

On the one hand, I can't see him turning down Arcadia in place of the Unfairground.  On the other, that's the most Aphex Twin thing he could do.

RJD could also be a rock band from Chennai, India - that was literally the only result I could find for RJD

Maybe it’s a typo. Could be RDJ. 
Ironman coming to Glasto. 😉

Hep, that was great.  proper great Sunday night that in 2019.  More of the same this year would be very nice

Don't think it's Aphex Twin or those lads from India...

Most likely this chap from London -

As an eternal optimist, I'm keen to keep that theory and dream alive. And it would be entirely in character for Mr J to turn up in one of the least likely areas. 

However, I also am here to manage people's expectations. 

So...

No...

That seems the most likely match!
