Friday other stage opener

[Gnomicide]

I was more of a Cracker fan myself but would go with CVB.

But it's going to be The Strypes or The Wombats.

[Gnomicide]

CVB finished US tour on 4th June.

Cracker US tour starts 7th July

I get the feeling that most under 30 don't have a clue who cvb are, and the wailing violin may scare the dance village mob away

[Gnomicide]

My favourite Cracker song...

Contains my favourite ever lyric "The movie star, well she crashed her car and everyone said she was beautiful, even without her head"

[Gnomicide]

Eurotrash Girl....

I'm glad I read this thread tonight. I need more Cracker in my life.

[A Guy Called Matt]

this is now talking my language. Better than the fluffing libertines.

Great cover of pictures of matchstick men (fave status quo song)

[The 38 year old virgin]

The really odd thing is I didn't discover CVB til last year and was then stunned how long they had been going!!!

Matchstick Men cover is bloody superb.

[Gnomicide]

my discovery was thru 'pump up the volume' generic teen movie with a killer soundtrack

[Lord Rooster]

I see David Gray is free on the Friday, in between shows in Gateshead and Ireland. Just another entry on the long list of acts that could potentially fill the slot, but won't.

Fatboy Slim playing a Housemartins megamix.

[Titters2]

Mr.Motivativator doing an early morning warm up.

Dont forget your Lycra folks.

[neilloggie]

This happened at Bestival!

A new album release took me by surprise......

The Buzzcocks have anew album out and have announced a tour later in the year.

They are also doing festivals including Godiva on 4th July.

Not been on this in a couple of weeks and someone mentions The Darkness as opening the Other Stage. Love it. Couldn't see it myself though think they are recording a new album.

[CaledonianGonzo]

The empty slot would be the perfect opportunity for moshpit enthusaists to explain to the crowd the correct terminology, etiquette and responsibilities for the Metallica mosh pit the following evening - and how to stay safe when a bloke who looks like the president of the Uni D&D society starts bouncing on your foot.

Concluding with a demonstration of perfectly choreographed windmills, walls of death, circles of hell, plague pit donkey punches and Shatner's Bassoons.

[morph100]

Coincidentally I whacked on The Darkness' album on Spotify yesterday and immediately thought, "These would be fantastic Other Stage openers!"
