So on Sunday there's an hour and a half between the penultimate act and the headliner? Really? Holy cow, that's a long old wait if you've committed yourself to a crowd position. My bladder will never manage that! I can foresee a lot of 'excuse me!'s as slackbladders like me attempt to reclaim base camp alpha, centre stage 8-10 rows back!

However, I rather like the planning of finishing the Sunday Garden headliner and then a mad dash to the beginning of the Woods headliner on the Sunday.

Call me a.., well, whatever you like really...but the last two EotRs have been two of the best weekends of my life. And maybe I'm overreacting but I'm starting to get a bit of a bad feeling. New main stage, close to doubling of capacity, bigger gaps between acts - I'd love to think these things won't change the atmosphere but...

Need to go in these slots:

20:45 - 21:45

19:30 - 20:15

18:15 - 19:00

17:00 - 17:45

15:45 - 16:30

14:45 - 15:15

13:45 - 14:15

12:45 - 13:15

Any preferences?

Just seen this on a Okkervil River article:

The Will Sheff-fronted Texan six-piece have also been announced as headliners on the Garden Stage at this year’s End Of the Road festival on 3rd September in Dorset.

So that's more concrete information. I might have to start constructing a clash guide!

[ElGanzo]

Interesting. A direct clash with Mogwai then? Definitely Mogwai for me I think. I guess it's not an awful clash as they are quite different musically though I'm sure lots of people would have liked to have seen both.

[Yokel Again]

I hope there isn't loads of clashes like this... one of the best bits of EOTR was being able to skip from act to act and see ALOT of people you want to see (Still needs convincing of the changes - although I'm sure I'll be won over within 10mins of being there)

[shoebox]

I have actually started plotting what we know on a clash sheet, and I've noticed that there is absolutely no-one else on at the same time as Joanna Newsom on the Sunday.

[thedailygrowl]

The Okkervil River Garden Stage headline thing makes the Woods Stage even more intriuging. If it's going to be the main stage, where's it going to be?

[zahidf]

where are all these stage times announced?

[Infinite Jest]

Stage times here: http://www.endoftheroadfestival.com/stages-and-areas (no artists listed yet though).

Further to Shoebox's comments, the Big Top looks interesting on Sunday. On the other days, the last band finishes and then almost immediately there's another slot, which must be DJs (midnight to 2am). But on Sunday, Brakes headline and finish at 22.15, then there's nothing till midnight (then more DJs, I guess). Surely can't be a licensing issue, becaue Joanna Newsom goes till 11.59 on the main stage.

What's going on?

[perfectpassion]

jsawyer.... please add Treefight for Sunlight to your saturday list, will ask Elizabeth when Allo Darlin are playing
