Nearly went this year but a lack of funds and my then work assignment ending July 1st put a stop to such extravagancies, so I had to make do with the festivals I already had tickets for.

Anyway, my career is back on track and there's money in the bank, so how could I ignore such an outrageously good offer!

I'm in.

The whole thing sounds lovely and I think we will be coming down for it in 2008 as a replacement for other southern festies we are not bothering with (Glasto and BDs)..

I'm a Dorset lad, albeit living in Yorkshire for the last 10 years..

Line-up'wise, more of what you seem to have been providing for the last few years please. Maybe with the addition of Kilnaboy and the Hedgerow Crawlers..

Another suggestion :

Headjam (MySpace page) (Dub/Metal/Punk/Dreadz :) )

They were top banana at the post- Anarchist Bookfair squat party on Saturday, and are quite well known on the activist/underground/squat scene in London.

On a much bigger name note (indeed potential headliner), I wonder whether Horace Andy is available?

He was SUPERB at the Lambeth Country Show in July.

Reggae legend!! :D

This genius was fantastic on Saturday when we saw him. This was in the Ryde Theatre, Isle of Wight, of all places, but he's a storming bluesman (with reggae elements), comes from Brixton.

Site appears to be down at the moment, but I doubt that's permanent, it was workimg very recently.

Well worth it, this man is a great live perfomer, a harmonica genius with a tight band ...

Just to give you a bit of prior notice - early bird tickets sales will close in the near future, so please get in quick.

We will also be putting on a little do at Frome's Cheese and Grain on the first of March, so keep your eyes on Efestivals for exclusive info. :angry:

      Tour Announcements & Upcoming Gigs

      Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December).

      Primavera Sound 2026

      After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.

      You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
