Other Stage Top 5

[Ben7amin_]

As its Friday -   

 

1) Prodigy 25

2) Chemical Brothers 19

3) Wolf Alice 25

4) Alt-J 13

5) Bloc Party 24

 

 

Honourable mention for Haelos in 2016 who performed an incredible set - despite there only being about 50 people there -  Probably would have been more suitable to a much smaller stage but fair play they were brilliant 

 

If she had turned up on time Lana - would have made this list probably as number 1.

LCD were great they only did not make my list as i was far to muddy and broken to have full enjoyment 

[wairey]

Only the most recent five to comment on but:

 

1. Foals (2022)

2. Avril Lavigne (2024)

3. Fred Again (2023)

4. Loyle Carner (2019)

5. Maggie Rogers (2019)

 

[philipsteak]

Pet Shop Boys 2023

LCD 2016

Chemical Brothers 2015

Wolf Alice 2025

Loyle Carner 2019

 

Probably in that order. PSB definitely top.

 

The Prodigy 2025 a close 6th. Probably would've been top 5 if not for the ending

 

 

 

 

 

[Gnomicide]

1. The Hold Steady 2010

2. St Paul and The Broken Bones 2016

3. Eels 2011

4. Frank Turner 2015

5. The Hives 2013

 

In my head, The Other doesn't offer that much up, but thinking back on it now, I've enjoyed quite a lot there over the years. I could have swapped these out for Idles, Slaves/Soft Play, The Lathums, Teskey Brothers plus a few others.

[Justcalledtosay]

1. Fred Again..

2. Foals

3. Hives

4. Lana Del Rey

5. Lightning Seeds

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Don't think I can pick a definitive five (there's been so many) but the first that come to mind are:

 

Turnstile (2025)

Chemical Brothers (2019 over 2011)

QOTSA (2023 over 2011)

The Prodigy (2025)

Fred Again... (2023)

 

But then, any of LCD Soundsystem (2016), Skrillex (2014), Major Lazer (2017) are worthy of consideration, too. And I've still not forgiven myself for missing The War On Drugs in 2023

[-TLR-]

right then...

 

1. Prodigy (2009)

2. Prodigy (1995)

3. Travis (whichever year it was when it started raining when they played that song)

4. Leftfield (2000)

5. Clare Maguire (2011) i had absolutely no idea who she was, and i didnt want to go anywhere that early, but Mrs -TLR- insisted and i'm glad because Clare Maguire was absolutely fantastic.

1. Foals (2022)

That Haelos set was brilliant. I remember we were all helping to lay out straw over the mud so they could start on time!

Haha didn't know that i dragged myself there 2 mis after they started and was pleased to get in the front row -  There singer Lotti has one of the most incredible voices -  its sad they have struggled for commercial success

This is so hard. We’ve seen and enjoyed so much over the years on The Other …

 

1) Wolf Alice 25 (right on the barrier)

2) Pet Shop Boys 23 (last minute decision. Unexpectedly brilliant)

3) The National 24 (first time seeing, loved)

4) Lady Gaga 09 (she so needs to come back!)

5) Confidence Man 24 (another last minute decision and so good!)

Christine & The Queens in 19 was also a massive highlight and should really be top 5 but can’t get over how bad their Woodsies headline was a few years later

[Sawman]

Queens of Stone Age - 2023

Tame Impala

Bjork

Flaming Lips

Turnstile

[blue6field]
