No as it mainly local and unsigned it’s all the smaller stages. Although there are some really good bands locally. check out the comments on Facebook and the Instagram tags xx Edited May 21, 2023 by kelstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelstar Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 It looks like some of the smaller stages are changing their names again. (Or maybe additions) This year we have the Radweb stage and the Portsmouth Creates stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roonboyz08 Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 Stage splits have been announced on the main website. Johnny Marr now seems to be headlining the Castle Stage on Sunday and Ben Howard is 3rd down. Also Kate Nash and Sea Girls have swapped days.

Dales Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 Some real stupid clashes now. Why put Marr up against Mumford. Why not put Sigrid or Goulding on as headliner. I love Johnny Marr but headlining the Castle? Well there goes my chance to see Mumford as my partner hates Mumford and loves Marr and so that decision has been made. I will enjoy Marr as i have many times before its just a shame that I will miss this rare chance to see Mumford & Sons. Is Marr bigger enough to draw most fans away from the Common stage? I am not at all happy about the potential clashes, far to many to mention but many of them are just so annoying as there is plenty of variety on the poster to offer people real alternatives rather then putting acts with similar fans up against each other. Also gutted about the Amyl/Kasiers clash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelstar Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 Is it me or does there seem to be less acts on the Common /Castle stage.......Longer sets?

Mr Carbohydrate Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 Marr headlining the Sunday is ideal for me! Quite shocked the charlatans are 4th top on the Friday. On one hand hoping fewer acts and they’ll get a decent length slot, on the other I’d quite like a few more surprises! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dg_vic Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 The stage split is completely unexpected. It’s does not even reflect the poster at all. Even on the most recent poster, vacccines are above Marr, but scheduling means he is above? Divine Comedy 5th down Main Stage? It’s seems a real mess. Let’s hope it works out and less bands = more stage time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sur ehow much to read into this, Crystal Tides for example are showing as opening castle on the saturday and also showing on beat and swings later that day. Now they did win a competition so weather they are playing twice as the reward or its unfinished i dont know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some traumatising clashes on this but I see that as a postive that they've nailed some good acts. Also having a lol that my old media studies teacher Kev is playing the Showcase Stage, haha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Carbohydrate Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 All the more excited for this after my first festival of the year just got cancelled 3 days before go 😭😭😭 Train and Hotel booked (non refundable) to Newcastle. Line up of Ian Brown, Happy Mondays, Cast and the Lightning Seeds for my day. Quite victorious friendly. Gutted, but would be a shame to waste a sitter, so night out in the Toon it is then!

FxxxItFlowers Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 ben howard third down on the second stage is actually ridiculous that has to be a mistake lol julie potentially clashing with natalie is heartbreaking for me but it happens, but aside from that, belle and sebastian then kaisers then kasabian? thats kinda nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhh that sucks but a night on the Toon is still definitely a good idea. Then a decent Dickson's saveloy dip with extra stuffing and mustard the next day to soak it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
