They better not stick them on during the day or something so I end up missing them. Was just saying this to a mate. If they're on at like 2/3am it would be wild.

Theyre paying tribute to when the Castlemorton rave happened which imposed the anti raves laws passed in the 90's and drove dance music further into the counter culture. Theyre gonna do some crazy thing I bet for that. I see, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is - and the AV show sounds incredible presumably that would be the opening thing once it is dark? I can’t remember when it was on in 2019.

kalifire Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 Haven’t heard of a single act. I just turn up and if I’m enjoying the music, I’ll stay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrancisH Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 So last time I went I was gutted to miss some acts I really wanted to see because I was queuing - If one wanted to see Hot Chip for example what do we reckon is the acceptable arrival time to actually get in? one hour before?

Badlands Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 Genuine question coming from someone who has no knowledge of the genres… is their a booking big enough to fill Iicon in there? It’s a huge old space but was rarely busy in 2019. Not necessarily a bad thing mind but it’s odd they make such a big area compared to the other SE places.

Sherelle, Overmono & LSDXOXO will pull decent crowds in I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozenfish Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) Do we think the Genosys Soundsystem means the actual Genosys structure is being replaced by something more resembling their Mobile Soundsystem that Gideon and the guys use for the Trafalgar Square protests? Would be a shame to lose that madness of a stage and light show but the new name threw me a bit. ignore - just seen it’s been asked.

We shall see I saw someone mention it could be the bus they used in the live at worthy farm show where honey Dijon and roisin Murphy played. Really disappointing if so as Genosys is one of my favourite stages. Guess this is one of the signs of budgets being tighter after covid, although I don’t understand why having the normal Genosys stage would cost much given it already exists so surely just needs to be set up? I could be massively missing the point here so if anyone could explain to me why it would be expensive to install the usual Genosys I’m all ears!
