And were in the second announcement last year too, so ti would be 3 in a row, which isn't really EOTR's MO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thruxton Appleby Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 I know this festival has been mentioned before, but they seem to have added a few more names. It's the weekend before End of the Road. We've got King Gizzard, but what are the chances of getting a few more? OhSees, Dry Cleaning, Shame, Crack Cloud, Les Savvy Fav, Nilufer Yanya, Black Midi, Panda Bear & Sonic Boom, Porridge Radio, Snail Mail, Squid. Any of those would pep things up a bit (though a few played last year, so unlikely). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been looking at this for a while - Les Savy Fav, Squid and Snail Mail are at Green Man and as you say a lot more are too recent. Panda Bear & Sonic Boom is the interesting one, they have European festival dates every weekend in August except GM and there's no reason they wouldn't have been in their first announcement so it might be worth keeping an eye on that. Osees are starting a US tour on the 3rd though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) One thing we may need to bear in mind regarding the second announcement is in that Guardian piece about the lack of female headliners (in which, if you missed it, he says Angel Olsen was offered headliner status but wanted to play the Garden while he had another lined up and lost them to an exclusivity clause) Simon says the full line-up will be 50% female and another 10% mixed gender bands. Of those in the first announcement 36 out of 96 (37.5%) are female with just under 20% mixed* so while he's clearly just grabbing figures out of the air for a journalist's sake hoping nobody follows it up, given eyes are on festivals like this one on gender balance there's some catching up to do and I wonder how many of those near top end acts who would be available are female. ( * and that figure includes the single female members of eight-piece Caroline, seven-piece Personal Trainer and six-piece Blue Bendy) Edited March 9, 2023 by SweepingTheNation 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadimmock Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 I'm actually pretty excited about the line-up. This will be our first EOTR and there is a lot that I am looking forward to. even if not much else is added I think that I could find a lot to occupy myself with here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benali Posted March 13, 2023 Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 6 hours ago, blurman said: 185 also way better Depends what you like and what you want to see. There's some alright stuff on there but most of the bigger acts are dull in my opinion and I've seen everyone else I'd watch on that list at least twice, and in some cases over 5 times. I guarantee that if you went to EOTR you'd have a good time. I've been to all but 3 of them and I can't recall ever speaking to anyone who didn't have anything other than a really enjoyable weekend.

benali Posted March 13, 2023 Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 Has anyone else on here booked to see Moin in London in a couple of weeks? I've wanted to see them for ages and thought EOTR would be the first time, but bagged some tickets for the early evening gig and am now very excited.

Guy Incognito Posted March 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 Imagine thinking that either of those line ups were as good/had the depth of EOTR's lol. 48 minutes ago, benali said: Has anyone else on here booked to see Moin in London in a couple of weeks?

There are some decent bands on that lineup but it is just very safe, very English and unimaginative. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to see them at Rewire if I can manage the inevitable clashes. Excited to hear what they do with the album, I can imagine them stretching and pulling apart those tracks into something completely different.

jplewes Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Deafheaven dates added in the UK & Ireland 19-25 Aug. With some of the stuff on the bill could imagine them fitting, but they're back in the US by 6 Sept and that's a week early, so probably also unlikely? Maybe Green Man..?

They're chiefly over for ArcTanGent, which usually gets a lot of US acts and then doesn't share them with any other festival, which I've never understood the economics of. Though I see they have Green Man Sunday (and potentially Friday) spare... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meades93 Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 Just been listening to the playlist and Infinity Knives The Badger comes on. Not only quite a good track, but starts with the line “I’mma kill my landlord…” Please let the inclusion of this track be reference to the landlord incident last year 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suttttttt Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 Badbadnotgood just been announced for APE the week before EOTR. Have they ever played before? Would be a good addition 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
