xxialac Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 About a month until day splits. Looking forward to seeing how each day shapes up. Feel like there won't be any times where nothing is on this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is it's rare for comedians to announce their days in advance (or at all - Lee, Long and Harouni don't list EOTR on their official sites yet) and the times aren't released until the programme so it'd be complete guesswork all round, whereas with musicians you can get some idea from styles, size and other dates of where they might play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweepingTheNation Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Clashfinder updated: https://clashfinder.com/s/eotr2024/ As you can see there's one fewer in Big Top on Sunday than last year, and as it surely isn't Cornelius playing at 11pm I've left it as a gap just in case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any reason you’re thinking that about Cornelius? Too small a name? I had already thought of him as a post headliner Big Top act before the splits came out.

More thanks from me - sterling and rapid work. Yes, "the Big Top is closed [by] Shibuya-kei pioneer Cornelius" does sound like the normal 11pm slot to me. I'm hoping Big Special will be the first 11pm Folly slot (were only 2 surprises each night last year, although that varies), because that is a natural time for them (they are great!) that will hopefully bump Flamingods to remove a bad clash with Phosporescent. My Truck tix mean I don't have to worry about NewDad or Idles clashing. Overall, this is really great for me. Is it too early to get excited?

LowerMead Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 Been hanging on for day splits to see if there are any other additions to my taste but regrettably not. I know line ups are subjective but there's nothing at all on the Sunday to float my boat, and only a couple of things on Fri or Sat. Altogether the weakest EoTR line-up for my personal tastes since I started going in 2009. I appreciate others think it is brilliant - horses for courses. Faced with dropping £625 on it (2 x Tier 4 adult and 1 x Tier 4 child) we're going to give it a swerve this year, it will be the first year of non-attendance for me since 2009. I'd already bought a large campervan ticket so will throw that at the mercy of Twickets resale whenever possible, I see those have sold out. I'll be interested to see how ticket sales go this year. My personal feeling is that it won't sell out, but I hope I am proved wrong. At the moment there is lots of Tier 4 availability, but too steep for me considering what I want to see. My wife and son come mainly for the camping rather than the music (it's a bit too alternative for them), we use it as an opportunity to catch up with our group of EoTR buddies who meet up there once a year. In that respect it works out as a very expensive camping holiday for the two of them! We'll probably do Latitude instead, much as I hate feeding the Festival Republic coffers, its line-up this year is a bit more suited to my wife and son, so we'll likely do that instead. Unfortunately the days of us doing both are long gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead it sold out nearly two months in advance. Edited May 9 by SweepingTheNation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
