Brilliant about Aphex. Is it Burns? that is playing the the clash?

Edited April 18, 2010 by Festie--Follower

[Kowalski]

Wonder if Steve Mason is DJing or playing something live.

[gordong]

Boys Noize,

Club 75

Annie Mac

Think il be this tent all day

[Window Licker]

Hope Aphex Twin is on a wee bit later so I can give Leftfield my full attention.

Sunday afternoon/evening in the Clash is lookin well good:

Japanese Popstars ---> Vitalic ---> 2manyDJs

f**kin sweet as...

[Poleski]

Considering Arcadia has Green Velvet on Saturday the "closing the festival" act should be big

[Kyelo]

Boys Noize,

Club 75

Annie Mac

That order for Sunday in the Clash arena couldn't be any better. I expected Vitalic to be a wee bit higher up and clash with someone but those three after each other is going to be amazing. Pretty gutted Aphex Twin is playing same time as Leftfield though. Also surprised how low down Blondie are aswell, defo a few surprises in this announcement. I'm well excited now!!

And what is Radio Soulwax after 2ManyDJ's? Are they going to broadcasting?

[blackg1000]

I think thats the name of the tent.

[Who'sme]

Is it just me or is Mark Knight not on it?

[I Hart Digital]

Aye those 3 back to back are gonna be hard to beat, all on slightly earlier than I expected but f**k it, it will make the night even better on Sunday as I'll have seen who I absolutely wanted to see by about 8pm and still have plenty more options the rest of the night.

Shame about Aphex Twin headlining the Clash same time Leftfield are on. I simply cannot entertain anything other than the full Leftfield set. However I'd love to follow that up with some Aphex.

Hopefully Jim will notice this trend amongst the older crowd and push James back to a later slot in the Clash. Say just as Leftfield are finishing up so we can all run over and join in the Clash.

I doubt the younger crowd will be that into Aphex Twin so I doubt the Clash will be anywhere near full while Leftfield are playing.

Just wait and see I spose

[Window Licker]

just imagine the mad dash as 1000's of folk pile into the clash tents. aphex will be scratching his head "i didnt think the new black eyed peas track would go down so well"

[5head]

Line up lookin good!

There's a helluva lot of acts thrown into the Clash arena on Sunday tho, which means they will prob have to play shorter sets than we would have wanted. Disappointed to see Vitalic near the bottom of that list too - he should be top of it imo.

EDIT: Just realised it says Radio Soulwax......so that will be a separate tent then. That's better! ;-)

I can see the Annie Mac presents and Radio Soulwax tents being an absolute nightmare to get into and can't think of anyone who's really going to pack out the Clash Arena on Sat/Sun (even Aphex Twin if he's clashing with Leftfield). Possibly Dave Clarke and the Bloody Beetroots one after the other but I think those two acts will be the busiest time for the Clash on Sat/Sun. How does Tinie Tempah go to second on the Clash Arena after one song?!? They should have put Tinie Tempah and Zane Lowe over to Annie Mac presents and brought Club 75 and Boys Noize to the Clash.

I think i'll be spending most of my time between Annie Mac/Soulwax tents and the Afterburner, just hope the Annie Mac/Soulwax tents dont get so busy that there's hundreds of people waiting outside meaning if you leave for a wander you've no chance of getting back in.

How big is the AM/Soulwax tent? Any youtube videos of it floating around from last year?

The last time I was there was 2007 and the third stage (tent) that year didn't seem very big.

EDIT: Just noticed Mark Knight is gone too?! I'm not his biggest fan but would've liked to have saw him for a bit of a change over the weekend. Hope he comes back, and Derrick May too!

Aphex Twin! Yay! Clashing with Leftfield! Arrrgh ! I'm happy mainly with everybody's slot .

[pothead pixie]

f**k me! Aphex Twin Ya beeeeeeeeeeezer, WAAHOOOOOO!

[pothead pixie]

Not so bothered about the Aphex/Leftfield clash, as Leftfield is playing EP. I mean f**k it!, Aphex does not play that much these days, so I have to experience his madness. It will just mean having to wait until Sept to see Leftfield. But I have always wanted to see Aphex, probably my number one bonkers electronica genuis. Now thats a line up, fair play to ya Jim, excellent.

[rachbon]

good to finally see the stage splits but i don't think all the bands are appearing in the order that they'll be playing.

[pothead pixie]

We could be still lucky, if you count the acts on the main stage for Sat night there is 8 acts, there is 7 acts for the Clash tent, so maybe Aphex will be on from 10.30pm till 12, if Leftfield is the eighth act, then its possible they could be doing it from 12 to 2. They have not actually printed set times as yet, so youll never know.

Usually at Electric Picnic, the Saturday night main stage acts are on a bit later to 2 oclock, I thought it would be the same for RockNess.
