We are looking to continue our charity support and Oxfam will be the sole beneficiary of the 2012 event. We are hopeful that they will also be running the Stewarding Team for us.

We have 57 vacancies for the Production Team in 2012 on top of the standard stewarding roles and you can apply by sending an email to info@beardedtheory.co.uk .

The car park, live in vehicle area, box office and gate admission is being subcontracted to a professional company that manages the gates for Glasto to avoid this years issues.

We have already made approaches to a couple of bands but we programme the line up based on what you want – so get requesting!

Have a fantastic summer and we shall see you in a field somewhere else!

First bit of 2012 news is here http://www.efestivals.co.uk/news/11/110905g.shtml

Great Stuff.....here we goes again.....

Went to Watchet the other week and stand out acts were:-

Hobo Jones & the junkyard dogs (I know - had 'em this year so perhaps not)

Dreadzone (I know, I know - you've certainly heard this request once or twice before)

10 pound suit band (would suit beard top / tornado town perfectly in my opinion - really good fun - get this band if you can please)

[PastCaring]

Looking good so far ....

How about Skindred? - great band - a touch heavier than Dreadzone but would go down well at Bearded, I think

[Karlhippy]

Skindred - a bit like Marmite in my opinion. You either like/hate them

[PastCaring]

True ...... - but that could be said for a lot of bands - you can't please everyone all the time ......

[si_t]

Led Zeppelin didn't write tunes everybody liked. They left that to the Bee Gees.

[karlpowell]

how about a return from Goldblade ?

[howie7]

Julian Cope

Nick Harper and/or his dad Roy

The Alarm

New Model Army again

[xrayspecs]

Already looking forward to this, especially as beng a week later it's a week nearer summer . Would be good to see Two Man Ting there.

[greenfairy43]

Django Django

Jon Gomm

Martha Tilston (again, please)

The Charlatans

Carter

Gogol Bordello Pleeeeeeaassssseeeee!

last request, hopefully the bar wil be properly stocked with a decent range of proper ales and ciders, not the mess up we've had for the last two years!

I second Gogol Bordello and The Charlatans. Also The Buzzcocks, PiL & The Fall (great bands - not sure if they're Bearded materials ????) The Beat (again), Hawkwind (again) UK Subs (again), PAIN (again), Seven Little Sisters in a decent late night spot - the list goes on ....... I was going to mention The King Blues, but I see they're already strongly rumoured

First main stage acts announced:

http://www.efestivals.co.uk/news/11/110915c.shtml

[just7]

completely underwhelmed by this line up, sort of second rate Beautiful Days plus a few pub bands chucked in.

To be fair, we've got the headlines to come, just hope they are something a tad more interesting than today's lot. failing that, might be tempted if the bar is half-decent this year.

[si_t]

I thought it was pretty decent too.

There's a fair bit I don't know, but I have faith that no one will be let down at BT.

Think it's best to reserve judgement until we see the whole picture - wasn't October 1st going to be a Headliner announcement?

Got an early bird so I'm there anyway...

[PastCaring]

I thought it looked pretty promising as well! I'm looking forward to seeing the first headliner announcement - I thought that was due to be at the Doctor and the Medics gig in Derby during October?

[xrayspecs]

I thought it looked pretty good too.
