LAWKS! It's the next announcement thread

Yes I think Silver Hayes next week. Feels like they could be making moves to attract a younger crowd which would be welcome. For that reason I do wonder if Acoustic and Avalon might be after resale.

How’s about prince William performing the knighting ceremony of sir Michael Eavis on the pyramid?😊😉, that would be a nice announcement! 

I had these same thought to be fair? Because they haven’t done it yet have they??

Did they not do that last year? The Levels was pretty full throughout the day with the yoot, whenever I walked past. And Lonely Hearts was well populated too. I felt there was a significant increase in daytime dancing last year.

Going on previous years, about 90% of the same people

That sounds about right. There is about a 10% death rate each year 😅 (brought on by the rock and roll lifestyle and old age).

Really looking forward to silver Hayes lineup. Really great for 2023. Here's hoping it matches/better it this year. Visited the levels last year for camelphat and FBS, really liked the stage/area. Watched Ben Bohmer on lonely harts too and he was great

I am not certain of dates etc but judging by how well received the lineup for Silver Hayes was last year they certainly seem to be putting a good amount of focus on it which is great. It’s a large area of the festival.

Ben was a highlight of the weekend, was hoping to see him on the bill again this year but he's out in America at that time, although he does have the Glasto weekend free so who knows.

I’ve seen clips of the Ben Bohmer set and it looks incredible. 

There was a big clash (I forget who with) so I didn’t see him, wish I had tbh!

It was a great slot for him. Gorgeous sunset and a perfect set to get us going for the Max Cooper < Helena Hauff > Daniel Avery triple bill that followed. That was one extraordinary run of sets on a single Glastonbury stage...

Based on the reviews I've read they do seem to have dropped a clanger by not landing the Moon Safari show. 

 

MrsG1990(who won't do camping festivals, so won't be at Glastonbury) is a MASSIVE Air fan, so much we had Moon Safari play at our ceremony when we got married last year and I got her tickets for the Royal Albert Hall show at the end of May for her birthday.

 

I was convinced when I saw the dates that given they would be in the UK when Glastonbury is on that I would be able to see them twice inside a month, and as you say the MS reviews have been top notch so I was very surprised to not see them on the poster.  Could have possible seen a high end Park or Other stage appearance.

He was on when guns n roses were on as all my mates went to that instead. He was brilliant, perfect time of day too with sun setting.

That would seem to need a heck of a PR job - to go from doing their own carefully put together production in some magnificent venues, to taking their production from Southampton to Somerset, doing the park or other with a very narrow GSH before they pop over the border to Ireland.   Even on their own tour they quite often allow really generous gaps between dates.
