Sushi at a festival would be brave!

Starting to think caroline will be a secret set. Good history with EOTR, left off the line up as they're at green man. And they have a lot of members already on site, all on Saturday (Shovel Dance Collective, and Magdalena McLean plays with Astrid Sonne). Could see a late night folly set from them. If not I'm sure they'd be back in 2026 now that caroline 2 is out.

I see they've tagged Pieminister in. Hope that means they'll be back. They've been missing for a few years now, haven't they?

I think supermarket sushi is a bit of a strange choice. Never considered that as a possibility to one-up it in the "Are you sure we should be having sushi from here?" stakes.

They're on the list of food vendors on the EOTR website

Anyone who saw Adult DVD at Green Man would think they should be doing a secret set.  And the same goes Westside Cowboy.  Can't remember though whether bands whose regular set is in The Folly are possibles for a secret set as well.

The new site map suggests the cinema is now next to the cider bus. https://endoftheroadfestival.com/information-general-information/

Yes, and makes no sense.

[robith]

yeah, was often sparsely attended, but no idea how it will work there

[SweepingTheNation]

Rough Trade have announced the signings, which I've added to the clashfinder - if you have highlighted acts on there that are doing a signing before their set you may want to check as Clashfinder tends to move the highlight on an act to the earliest entry.

There's more happening on Piano Stage than in previous years, from earlier in the day.

Is this inside info?

Ela Minus out alas - visa issues

[WFD]

Ela Minus has had to drop out again, due to visa issues.

[SweepingTheNation]

Mohammad Syfkhan has moved over to replace Ela with Ustad Noor Bakhsh coming in on Talking Heads.

Yes.

I know it's far too early to start speculating about 2026 when 2025 is still a week away, but I wonder if they're considering bringing CMAT back to headline even though she just played Woods last year? The new album is blowing up, she had what seems to have been the biggest audience of the weekend at Green Man, has just announced an Ally Pally date and made a point of saying how much she loves the festival (and her guitarist's solo project Cubzoa is playing this year)

 

FWIW Simon's on 101 Part Time Jobs podcast this week and drops in that there's already a headliner booked, though for all we know that could be Fever Ray.

ATM it feels like she'll end up too big, but she's at an interesting juncture - she's toured this album an *awful* lot before it's come out. Will there be appetite still for the victory lap?

Sofia Kourtesis has announced on Instagram that her mum has passed away. I think I'd be surprised if she performed now

[edwinizza]

Losing Sofia as well as Ela Minus would be tough.

[SweepingTheNation]

Tucker Zimmerman has puled out for health reasons. Mark William Lewis replaces.

Yeah, I keep missing her and I love her, would understand but would be so gutted if she's not there.

 

Also, cutting it a bit fine for the stage times right?
