I'm a bit peeved at Courteeners and The 1975 both clashing with acts I want to see. There's so much quality on the Friday you wonder why they didn't move it all around a bit. Maybe 1975 on Thursday and Courteeners on Sunday?

[cazkel]

Cheers! Will take a look.

Up the Dubs!!!!!

The Courteeners are on Sunday..

Saturday Maravillas is pretty dire up until The Libertines!

Poor old Example is going to have a pretty lonely set though. I can't see too many Spanish being overly keen to see Example and I can't see too many Brits not going to watch the Libs.

James have been shafted, why not give them a headline set on the 2nd stage rather than a patronising hour opening the main stage. The Klaxons on after? really???

James 8pm

Klaxons 9:45pm

Ellie Goulding 11:30

Tinnie Tempah 1:15

Chase and Status 3pm

I didn't think they could fuck this festival up anymore than they have already but clearly was wrong. James could quite easily headline the Thursday, putting them on at 8 oclock is just stupid. And don't get me started on the Nutini vs Courteneers clash - dickheads. Edited July 2, 2014 by radder5

Wouldnt bring vans there, would think they'd fall about in a few days. Brought some old nikes last year and they were perfect. The dust just hardens up the shoes and makes the laces rock solid. Converses would be pretty good i guess, apart from the swetty ankles if you've got those ones

i ruined a pair of shelltoes 5 year ago they stained an orange colour !!! They been every year since and again this year

Made a Clashfinder. On the Beni website it doesn't have info for a few acts so they aren't on there. Also I used the clashfinder tool that estimates finishing times because again, Beni didn't give them to us. So here you go, not perfect but a close as we can get really. Enjoy.

[sufc]

Really appreciate the clashfinder man!

As for the Thursday: James, Klaxons then probably hit the bars in town. Can't stand Goulding or Tempah.

Is it easy enough to move from and to a different stage?

Would of liked to see Paolo but not massively bothered, Courteeners win hands down for me... I wanted to watch Razorlight but with the missus absolutely besotted with Jake Bugg i've got no chance, Example can swivel...

[Richi1988]

Jake bugg follows Razorlight on Main stage so youve no worries there mate.

[popuptent]

Oh I just noticed razorlight and bugg don't clash.. Buzzin

I second this, need something for Wednesday

[Richi1988]

Fraggle rock on the wednesday is always a good night. Plenty of decent indie/rock music, open till the early hours. Find pinguins on the main strip and go up the side street behind it.

[darkpassenger]

Are these places all located pretty much behind the Waterpark or therebaouts?

The Propaganda night on the Tuesday was class last year, my credit card got hammered and I spent the next day asleep in the car shaking like a heroin addict that has gone cold turkey!

[sharbutt]

Just looking at the lineup on clashfinder, i have a few issues with the lineup..!!

1) has anyone taken the time to check this against the FIB site's times, i take it that this is spot on..?

I have you tubed more or less every single band to see what they are like music wise, so i have a better idea of where i want to be for the weekend at what stages etc...!!

2) there are a few clashes that are really bad for me lol, as there are not too many people on the lineup worth seeing but the ones i want to see seem to clash.
- Alesso and Sub focus
- Nina Nesbitt/Hozier/Travis
- The 1975 & Kasabian
- Lily Alen & Tachenko
- Paolo Nutini (not heard much of him, but hearing good things about him live???) & Courteeners

3) are there still bands to be announced, looking at the Clashfinder site there are hour to an hour and fifteen minute gaps between some bands..?

Looks like my plan for the weekend is -

Thursday = Maravillas all night.
Friday - The lineup for me is extremely poor apart from (Razorlight who i have seen before so not too woried about seeing) then at 1am I have to decide on a clash of bands (the 1975 or Kasabian).
Sat - a mix of Maravillas and Trident all night.
Sun - I will starting at FIB Club then Tridant then jumping from Maravillas then need to clone myself as i will want to see all of the bands on bothe rht Maravillas and Trident stages, so make trips back and forth a few times the sunday night...???

How far are the two stages, how long does it take to get from Maravillas to Trident..?

Cheers all, lets make it a great weekend though !!

Not that fussed about them but Alesso and Sub Focus clashing is the stupidest clash going.
