All Points East 2023

[ConfidenceMan]

I've been really enjoying the new Jungle album since I stuck it on yesterday morning. 

I won't be too upset if I don't make it along that day, but if I do, id be in for a really good time with them, Erykah Badu, Blessed Madonna, 070 Shake... 

It remains a very weird choice for a festival with such a large capacity, but if that was a day at, say, End of the Road, id be thrilled I'd say.

Anyone got any tips for lower down the bill on Field day? I'm excited for Bonobo, Jon Hopkins and Aphex Twin, but wouldn't mind some tips earlier on.

If I was heading along, id be going to Actress, Sudan Archives, Art School Girlfriend, SBTRKT, and Fever Ray. 

Not sure how that works out clash wise, but some great stuff on the list.

I won 2 free tickets for the Field Day event on Saturday but unfortunately can no longer go. I'd like them to go to a eFestival member so whoever DM's me first can have them!

I'd second all this, I'm going to get there early-ish specifically for Sudan Archives.  Fever Ray is more of a "must see" for most of my friends than Aphex Twin.  Moderat are good but clash with Bonobo. I was surprised by how good Bonobo was when I caught him at Glasto a couple of years ago - a full band performing electronic music is a big winner.  

I think I'm going to prioritise stuff in the tent, as IMO it's a better atmosphere for dance music.  Kai Campos should hopefully be good, and Deena Abdelwahed is well worth checking out

So many great names everywhere on the lineup, you'll have a great time

@Ed90 was fastest finger first so he's got the tickets, wish everyone else the best of luck in trying to source some before Saturday. Hopefully there's someone else like me who can't go and also messages in here for you guys!

The lights and stage show are such a core part of the Fever Ray live experience. Not sure how that will work outdoors in the daylight.

anyone else's Ladbrokes plays not updated? I'm surely hoping I can wangle one for the Dermot Kennedy day. Just want to see Olivia Dean tbh

My plays not updated yet. Will look again tomorrow. Site seems a bit of a shitshow tbh.

If you are or know any NHS people, there are still tickets available for Haim, DM and Jungle (cost 7.50 each) on Tickets for Good, and a ballot for Field Day on Blue Light tickets

Plays updated now. No luck. Relying on one ballot entry. Not too hopeful but never mind…

Same, though I had to email them. Moved on to trying for Busted, still no luck

[SCG95]

When can we expect stage times to be released? 
 

Already feel a headache brewing for Strokes day! 

[Memory Man]

I reckon strokes could be out this friday, stormzy times were out about a week in advance

[FakeEmpire]

Yeah, last year W2 times dropped about a week before so hopefully Thurs/Fri at the latest.

[brayshizzle]

Holding off of buying tickets for field day cause I am broke AF but with the rain I wonder will I be able to get a cheap resale. 

[snoochie1981]

Current forecast I have is for mostly sunny on Sat. Plenty of time for that to change though 😬

[Acid Loafers]

Really need another J2 2019

Terrible forecast.

Rain in the morning.

Clears up by 3:00.

Lovely day, about 65% capacity.

Heaven.

[sheffinghell]

Field Day is up on Tickets for Good now. Free, total 7.50 fees per ticket. NHS members. Haim, Jungle, DM also still available. 4 tickets per event can be booked.

Really hoping I manage to win tickets to the HAIM date as I'd really love to go but just cant justify the £65 ticket cost. Here's hoping huh

I’ve won some HAIM ones so if you can try and win me some strokes we can swap. And if you don’t end up having any luck winning strokes ones happy to just give you them anyway if I can’t manage to win or swap them as I’m not planning on going. But please try help me win some 😂
