All Points East 2023

[Guy Honeymoon]

I was hoping The Walkmen and Future Islands would be on the Strokes day. They may yet get added I suppose.

The undercard isn't quite as big a "Must see" for me as the 2019 version of this was, but for God's sake I hope the sound system is better given how poor it was on the two biggest stages for that visit.

Least JARV IS in the tent was suitably meaty. Even if the acts of festival timing meant I had to sack off their last few songs to get a good spot for Interpol.

It's in a residential area and so I imagine there's a lot of watching dB levels as the evening goes on.

Think that's just the nature of the beast with park gigs in London. It's why I rarely have enthusiasm for Hyde Park or Finsbury Park shows.

Around £80

Came to £74 or so in 2019 looking at my e-mail archive. Would expect a few quid more with inflation and whatnot.

It was good for me too at the strokes

key thing is to move about - think i've been very lucky as i have never really had any issues

if it wasn't full of talkers the sound wouldn't matter as much anyway!!

Sound has been good for me whenever Ive been, but the talkers at Foals in 2021 was incredible. Moved around a few places, nothing inproved. Real put off.

APE is consistently worse than Finsbury - not sure about Hyde Park but its quite deep in the park so probably ok i'd assume

Strokes day was notoriously bad last time and Foals had some issues last time they played, but I didn't really have any issues last year and I went to a few of the days so not sure if they've found a sweet spot for it. It's a site that benefits from moving around a bit to get the best sound.

Allegedly its one of the most sound restricted festivals in Europe according to someone from the industry

As in...wait until after her tour finishes or you don't think it's happening at all?

I'm assuming the Bonobo set at Field Day is live? If so very exciting, was great at Royal Albert Hall.

Are there any prices for Field Day announced?

I tried to buy tickets last week when Aphex was rumoured, and there was a bug on the website that said 6th release tickets were £99. Although that may have been for last year? It's hard to say. Really hope it's less than that, I'm absolutely buying tickets with that lineup

Says it's from £45 (+ fees, I imagine)

[HamishA.]

£45! what a treat, thanks for sharing.

Nothing signed… yet.

Full Amex presale prices for Field Day - vip packages available too, but couldn’t fit on screen.

The Strokes was 81 quid in the amex presale today for general admission. Seems about right these for that kind of event.

£1 cheaper than last time!

It says it starts at 3pm also

[aidenlangan95]

Paid £60 last time Aphex did Field Day - This time £53.
Paid £71.50 last time for The Strokes - Not going this time unless I can get a ticket for free.

Going from memory that's less than the Chems/Kraftwerk Field Day last year. Nice one!
