Are we looking at a repeat of Wet Leg at the Park last year? 

Looking at the line up so far and bearing in mind that final poster hasn't released yet, I don't see acts with enough draw to keep people away from the Other Stage.

Could it be insanely busy?

For me, Fred Again (with or without Skrillex/Four Tet) is top of a very small 'must see' list.

I'm planning Fred, then either up to Park for Manics or over to Camelphat at the Levels (some of our group will be going Pyramid for AM)

What have other people got lined up for around 8.30 on Friday night?

The Other stage is much more suitable to Cope with it, also loads will be at Royal Blood and other clashes around the site.  It’ll be busy but if the likes of Olivia Rodrigo are fine so will he be

Not a single mention of the album Fred Again released on Friday? 

It's alright as an ambient album, although not really much to my taste, found it quite snoozy in places.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I have seen the Arcadia lineup for this year and sadly the Fred x Four Tet x Skrillex b3b is not on there.

Also doesn’t look like there will be space for them to be added to the lineup later as there are 18 acts on the lineup when there were 16 on the 2022 Arcadia lineup

Ohh no, that sucks. Is the lineup good though regardless?

The fact you've seen it would suggest the announcement is imminent?

Yeah it’s good but not as strong as previous years for my tastes. That being said, there’s some tasty b2bs on there which will be great, along with the booking of a certain act that we were all expecting that couldn’t make it last year…

Not sure to be honest, have seen the poster though so that exists so maybe that suggests it’s imminent?

Thanks. Yeah, Chem Bros were always nailed on. Not sure I’d see a DJ set from them unless there’s nothing else on. I’ve seen them so many times

Pendulum headlining?

I love ambient music and the Eno Fred Again... project is absolute shite. 

Would go down like a lead balloon on the Other.

I don’t think this means they aren’t playing. I still stand by the fact that they would be unable to play Arcadia as it would be dangerous, especially post-Coachella. 
 

I have no clue where else they could play. Perhaps a TBA other stage slot?

Yeah I didn’t say they weren’t playing, just that they weren’t playing Arcadia, which was the stage most people were expecting them to play (if they were playing)

    • Yeah so many of mine seem to be just France v Spain in one semi and England/Brazil v Argentina in the other. But the fact those combos are the obvious ones mean it feels unlikely that'll happen because in World Cup history, you very rarely end up with what pre-tournament looks like the obvious final 4. We all see teams outperform and underperform. Which one is the fall guy is a different matter.   I've said elsewhere that for me, there's a hierarchy of Spain, France and Argentina as the 3 strongest looking, then England and Portugal, then Brazil and Germany, but that overall, they'd be the 7 likeliest to win. So I dunno, maybe this will be the time the Netherlands avenge the failure of total football in 1974 and achieve what they couldn't achieve through whatever the f**k Nigel de Jong was with his 2010 final karate moves.
    • Oh I think Infantino should resign. His handling of the whole WC process has been an utter shitshow. But you know. That would require him having integrity or something.
    • Good Charlotte would be fine third down or subbing. If they can get a bigger sub and still get GC, they’ll play third down.

    • Nope, Sum 41 had already headlined second stage along with Rob Zombie and Slayer in 2017....are we saying that Rob and Slayer would be 4th down the Pyramid. The KSE are always predicted 3rd down, Skindred are given 3rd down and we think 7 years after a second stage headline with that genre very 'IN' they wouldn't get 3rd down.  Sum 41 did a last ever UK did that had Wembley Arena and not The 02 and it wasn't anywhere near the prices Good Charlotte is costing. Every act is going to do well on a final tour, GC have only just come back and in my opinion a shocking day of music overall for the return choice.    On Slam Dunk, firstly Sum 41 headlined in 2022 when festivals returned from the covid time out, every festival going sold out and some very quickly! Secondly, Slam Dunk in 2022 was not £150 for a day ticket. Also thirdly, Slam Dunk 2022 was a great lineup, this years was pants! I met two guys at RIP who said to me they think 2025 was more fitting for the anniversary lineup and they couldn't be more correct, in the very top lineups they've ever put out. Its not as plain and simple as you've put.
