Mr_Grump Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Just noticed on the Kendal Calling Line Up page here on efestivals that Vintage Trouble are scheduled to play the Calling Out stage.....I hope this is a typo as I dont think the tent would be able to cope with the number of people wanting to see them. They have to be main stage again but at a much more sensible time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goonerming Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 would imagine it could be a typo as even the official site has them as stage TBC, would agree that the calling out would be way too small for them this year. the efestival line up page also has maximo on saturday night and dizzee on friday, the official kendal site has announced them the other way round with maximo clearly written up as friday night headliner and dizzee as saturday night headliner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaytee... Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I saw these guys in Manchester a week or two ago and thought that I should like them more that I did. Is there any stuff you would recommend for when I get round to having a proper listen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramragon Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 They are headlining the calling out stage on the Sunday night according to Vintage Trouble's twitter. I would love them to do a late night set in riot jazz tent again, that was my highlight of last year and I just happened to stumble upon them.

Katster Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Cool, cheers. After going to bearded theory over last few years I am well aware and love the benefits of smaller festivals and am pleased to hear that Kendal calling sounds similar in that aspect. What's security like in terms of leaving stuff in tents?? I don't ever leave valuables but just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuwilky Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) Was that the show at the Ritz? I thought they were brilliant. I think their debut is released in a week or two but have a listen to weights and measures, lions den, bible belt - I think they're all on spotify. No Rest is my personal favourite Edited February 28, 2012 by stuwilky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JID Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 A friend told me last year that the security were very strict on taking booze into the campsite and that if ID wasn't shown it wasn't allowed in. Is this true? Apparently his 28yr old mate had to leave hos booze due to no ID! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amfy Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 The Kendal Calling website suggests that there are 3 areas within the normal camping - 'party' (loud), 'quiet' & 'family'. I liked the idea of there being quiet camping which wasn't family camping as it leads me to think of not being kept awake all night by nobheads, nor being woken early by children. For this reason I wasn't bothered about Emperors field until I read this thread yesterday and it was too late! Does anyone have any experience of this "quiet" camping? Does it exist? Could it be a new thing? If we end up in one of the other areas we'll be fine, it's not as if we haven't done generic camping before, we've even been to V fffs! Nothing can be worse than that! I just quite liked the idea of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaminglippy Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 We were in the quiet camping area last year and it was great with a very friendly atmosphere and had no problems whatsoever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amfy Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 This sounds fine then. We were thinking we might have a sunshine break abroad in Glastonbury break year, but whilst we could find lots of options in Greece, Spain, Turkey etc, we just couldn't find anything we felt excited about. Finding this has been the first thing this year that has made us go "Yesss!" We tried Big Chill last year and loved the space, scenery, and smaller scale - looking at the pictures this seems to have everything that Big Chill has going for it, and more. It's not even the line up particularly, I think I've reached the stage that theres no-one I want to see that I haven't seen already - it's about being somewhere where the vibe is right - and I think this is it. Genuinely excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amfy Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 We were in it last year, it was really good - we sat around until reasonably late having a beer and a bit of a laugh, but with no shouting and screaming etc - you could obviously still hear a lot, but it was much more chilled out than other areas. Having said that I have an emperors field ticket this year, but half our group havn't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
