ljsawyer Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Friday: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - I've wanted to see these guys for YEARS White Denim - having seen live videos of them on the 'tube I have a feeling this will be one of the sets of the weekend. Saturday: Timber Timbre - New album is brilliant and Demon Host will be perfect. I just wish they were playing a later set M. Ward - Poison Cup and Chinese Translation please Sunday: Megafaun - one of my favourite bands, unmissable Woods - ditto above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinite Jest Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 My only must-sees are Midlake and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. I'm looking forward to this fest because there's a lot of good bands, but no-one that I'm obsessed with seeing. So I'm free to go with the flow and go wherever seems interesting at the time . Whereas last year I didn't move an inch from the main stage on Sunday (which was great because I saw three of my favourite bands, but this will be great too...)

GTG Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 So, what are Megafaun like live, then? Been listening to them a lot today and hearing a lot of good things going on but it's a bit like listening to an unthemed compilation/sampler. Every track sounds like it's by a different band. Just wondering if there's more of a consistent 'vibe' in their live set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_the_Great Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Fri: Best Coast, Lykke Li, Sat: Wild Beasts, Zola Jesus Sun: Wild Nothing, Joanna Newsom Also must see sometime over the weekend: Cider Bus, Portaloos, varies nice food stores, maybe the circus workshop as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
