Is this a staff bar? If not, where is it? Meeting place is near William's Green so is this the bar there and they now have a stage?

Is it okay that I'm looking at it thinking phew, nothing I want to see?

Is it the one that just has a big sign saying BAR?  If so it usually has DJs, so nothing new.

Ah, I've missed they have stuff on.

How many unannounced acts to fill slots on remaining big stages (Pyramid, other, park)..? Still hoping for QOTSA, Pulp, The Hives and Viagra boys.

A quick look suggests there's 37 acts left on the main poster that will be on the remaining big stages.  A couple of those may be on acoustic.

Last year there were approx 70 slots on pyramid,other and park

 

So on that basis I think it's safe to say about half the slots on pyramid, other and park are yet to be announced.   Most of those are probably lower down the bill though.

Plenty more to come then! Ideal.

I for one have enjoyed your stewardship of this magnificent place profoundly.

All the bans were utterly justified. 

Best of luck darling ♥

Apologies if this was posted already, but I did a search and couldn't find it. Anyway, the line up for Rimski's Yard in 2023.

Always good to see the likes of Pronghorn, Professor Elemental and RSVP.

Always found some good music at the rocket lounge in the early hours - well worth a visit

I’ve been away from the site for a few months due to work and family commitments so apologies if this has been driven into the ground elsewhere…. But are we thinking that the lineup will drop with a TBA or two? I’m trying to remember how far out we had an incline it was Ezra and White last year for the JP and Park slots. 
 

Also remember a Marshall Mathers checking into an air bnb in Somerset which was doing the rounds for a week or so.

Probably.

Ezra leaked a few days before and Jack White came out during the weekend or day of.

They are being more careful after the overcrowding issues last year ie announcing beforehand so people decide whether they really want to bother with the crowds, potentially will be on bigger stages or later on in the day so they clash more.

In a year where they are struggling to balance the books, it would be a huge disappointment to see the budget spaffed on a homophobic misogynist. Can’t see it.

Green Futures "coming soon"

[nikkic]

What are we thinking this week then? 

Seems Arcadia is finished so maybe that? 

Block 9?

The Park?!

Unfairground and Glade too.

Should be a busy week

[FuzzyDunlop]

This week I think we'll get at least 1 dance area (arcadia maybe) & a live area (acoustic / park) 

Areas we still need

Acoustic, Park, Glade, Block 9, Arcadia, Unfairground, Kidzfield

So there should in theory be 3/4 this week, 3 next & full drop the week after.

Or does that indicate a pattern?!?

Blimey, there's got to be weekend announcements with that many left, surely?

[Memory Man]

San remo could easily come after the full lineup (rendering it nearly pointless) - it has done before

does acoustic always get its own announcements?

the big ones now left now are really only park, glade and block 9

also we’re only just over 2 weeks from the full lineup, if you believe its coming 30 may - 2 June

Yeah the acoustic gets a poster normslly

[Memory Man]

I never go arcadia but each to their own - and i love dance music!

Arcadia's limitations are well documented

Whilst true, it's still a big area to announce.

I go to Arcadia if I go early & know I will "get in". 

[DavoTheWorthy]

Have we had many announcements on the first working day of the week this year? Feel there hasn't been but I may be wrong.

I'm sure there was some info a few weeks ago about Glade announcement being the 17th...
