One of the best sets of the weekend, but I knew it would be. Fourth time seeing them for me and it just concreted my love of them. When I saw them in Bristol earlier this year I was second row and the intensity of their performance and their anger made me feel physically uncomfortable, for a band to have that impact on their audience is incredible

I mentioned to someone that they were very much a punk band (even if the music isnt)

You have described why perfectly.

It didnt make me feel uncomfortable. It made me feel like I could run through a wall & was fired up... but I understand your point.

Just had to google this! What an absolute little thunderc**t Garath Gates is 🤣

I mean I never considered him the great arbiter of taste or anything but it was one of the oddest tweets I had ever seen which is why it has always stuck with me. I mean he's famous enough to know that it would be noticed and I reckon they'd take him in a fight. 😄

I think we absolutely need proof of this, perhaps in the Temple on a sunday afternoon, in a pile of tomatoes 😄

Gutted I missed them...they were on my 'would like to see' list but so was Fred which coincided with friends' plans. However after watching the set on iPlayer, have treated myself to a Sunday Bluedot day ticket...chuffed that I now have both them and a new festival to look forward to.

One of the best sets of the weekend for me.  Almost skipped it to watch Sparks, and then thought about splitting the time between them.  I've seen Young Fathers a few times but had never seen Sparks.  In the end we watched the whole Young Fathers set and I'm so glad I did.  Didn't matter how many times I've seen them, it was superb.

So...that went well...given Bluedot stopped day ticket holders to enter the site yesterday! Ah well, I'll keep my eyes peeled for new dates when they get back from the States...

That was unlucky, though looking at pictures from the site, a sensible decision.

Fingers crossed you get to see them soon

They still have tickets, bring you own(allocated pitch) and pre-pitched camping options, but only for multi day ticket holders.

Quite a good line up across all three days.

Uk tour! Who’s going?

Oh I wish sadly it's in gigs banned time as one of my dogs is really scared of fireworks so we can't leave her on her own from end of October until late November and it's annoying how many people tour in that window every year!!

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
