Of course they could just be going as punters...

Also, I really like the cinema lineup this year! Although realistically I'll probably only catch anything early in the morning or on Thursday.. Would love to see the Dirty Three documentary but probably won't happen given the musical quality of the Bella Union day.

been digging around my old grandaddy CDs.

reason enough to be optimistic

[ljsawyer]

Maybe they're waiting to see if it sells out before posting up stage times?

[Fareham Grecian]

I'm sure that they said a couple of weeks ago (Twitter I think) that stage times would be posted in 'the next week' but I can't find it now - getting concerned that they're not going to be put up at all, following the sneaky Hop Farm model.

Has anyone got the time and the inclination to create a clashfinder based on last year's stage times in the hope that they map across directly??

[shoebox]

Already done, hopefully this works. Also hoping that it's wrong as it means I can't see First Aid Kit AND Delicate Steve

Already done! http://clashfinder.c...oftheroad2012/?

Sunday (particularly on the Woods Stage) might be completely different though. I'm not sure if they'll be doing with Grandaddy what they did with JN last year, so I've left a slight overlap between Grandaddy and Villagers.

EDIT: Damn, beaten by a shoebox

Brilliant, thanks guys!!

[Mardy]

Man, there's a lot, A LOT, of acts I want to see. Looks like there's some horrific clashes coming up...

[zahidf]

Hopefully its not like that. I will not be happy if Jeff Lewis and Anna Calvi clash...

[riverlodge]

many thanks LJS, looks good. have plotted a great schedule for each day, with options around other bits. i was looking forward to it before, but this starts to make it tangible.

hope the stage gaps work as well as previous, didnt feel i missed out massively on too many things.

its the late late sets that i need to make sure i dont miss, like totally sitting in the wrong tent while white denim played the big top......duh. (that might have been to do with cider??).

[perfectpassion]

Brilliant stuff...Thanks Shoebox and LJS. When I get a moment I can now plan who I want to see further down the billing.

[kidpresentable]

Excellent stuff, thanks for those who made the clashfinders.

I'll be delighted if you're right that Robyn Hitchcock and Mark Lanegan don't clash!

To be posted tomorrow!

OK, listening to King Charles now. Think I've just worked out when I go and get something to eat on the Thursday. This is a joke, right?

[DragKnuckles]

I'd recommend seeing him live - he was truly awesome at Summer Sundae. He may have benefitted from the element of surprise - I'd never heard of him, but he really was one of the best things I've seen all summer. Definitely the best discovery.

[clareandguy]

Neither of those sound anything like his summer sundae set...the closest I could get to describing it was funk-rock-glam-folk. He's a super lead guitarist, had a good band with him including excellent female co-vocalist, and they truly rocked the tent.

[wackojackohighcliffe]

Yeah, they were quite good fun live when I saw them and he does have amazing hair. It's amazing how crap that record is though.

[riverlodge]

^^ what wackojacko said

[Mardy]

Saw him at Lounge on The Farm earlier this year. I thought the music was alright, certainly better than expected but as a front man, he just didn't quite cut it. Trying too hard. There was a bit where he tried to climb on the speakers that was Spinal Tap-esque in its ridiculousness. That said, overall, nowhere near as bad you'd think.

[geofelgie]

Due to stage time changes I accidently caught his last two songs at Latitude, which included an obliteration of We Didn't Start the Fire.

It was fun but then it was also absolute rubbish. If it'd been on the Caberet Stage there I'd've applauded him but I got the impression that he really thinks he is the "folky" Prince. And, well, he's not!

[Neville Street]

Is he this years Bob Log type act? Not tried to YouTube, just from the comments you guys have made. See you next week
