My sister pointed me towards these and I'm loving them! I just wish they were an hour later in the downlow, can't see myself missing the rumored Friday headliners

The rather excellent DJ Tennis has Glastonbury listed for Thursday on gigatools. 

Edit - I should of checked the previous page first! Still, boss booking!

You like yer tennis mate aye haha. Wonder if he's playing as part of anything, Life and Death or Circoloco there perhaps? Thursday is always rife with label/night showcase type things on. Or he could be just playing WOW. 

if they are doing another Circo Loco on the Blues on Thursday I would very much think he'll be playing it

I don't think there's going to be a circo loco night this year judging from the poster, which is shit. The last two years it has been really good

Are any of you guys going to attend the efests meet? Im going to be there on the Wednesday this year and thinking about popping along, would be good to put some names to faces

Yep - I'll defo be there, Mez.

I have, for years, bottled out of pretty much every forum meet for every festival I've been to. Until last year - really enjoyed meeting so many great people at the eFests meet, so will pop along again. I'll be at the site before the gates open, so by 4pm (I think?) I'll be ready to get together with everyone, having spent quite a few hours yomping!

No - Thursday coach has put pay to that.

One year hopefully will have the balls to go for a Wednesday ticket...

[blue6field]

Hopefully going to make it along for a couple

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

If I was going I would have tried to go along, I've met Tuna and Winslow from here before, very briefly, in my drunken state I believe they were both thoroughly decent people

[willsnewman]

I shall probably try and make it this year. There are less of my group going so it'll be less likely that I'll be persuaded to be elsewhere. I would like some faces!

LBHQ presents in Shangri La is fantastic, I take it it'll be in Heaven again?

can't stop as at work, but just popped in to say that I think we might all be a bit cross - I think LBHQ is in a frickin' micro-venue, and I WANNA SEE THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS!!!!

LBHQ was not a bad sized venue, bit tight though and it was a bit of a queue to get in. Standard stuff though is you get in and need a piss straight away haha. Someone has said and its a good point, why don't they have the likes of Jamie Jones, M Bros etc on the Hell Stage?! These guys headline BIG stages at festivals all over so it is crazy to put them in a tightish venue. Great additions today though. If Circoloco aren't involved this year still getting lots of the sorts that play there spread around.

[Brad2434]

Never been a fan of LBHQ, always a huge queue to get in and its always packed to the rafters. Too busy and sweaty to enjoy yourself imo. Should just put them on the blues stage, it has a great sound and looking up at the favela like decor never fails to amaze me

new MSTRKRFT record is out in July, this new track is crazy 

I'm totally wired like that fall track listening to this.... Tits!

Hello, looking for some tips and I think this is the right place to ask

I'm not big into dance music, but I do like a bit of a boogie - especially at a festival. The dancier stuff that I do tend do listen to is along the lines of Justice, Crystal Castles, Simian, CSS, Sleigh Bells, SBTRKT, Caribou, The XX etc, so I guess pretty electro-pop/indie/house kind of stuff. I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a few acts that are on this year in places like The Common, Shangri-La, Block9, Silver Hayes etc that I might enjoy based on what I've said above. I feel like I always miss out on a lot of SE corner action because I don't really know any of the acts, but I'm sure there would be plenty on I'd love if I knew what to look out for!

Any help or advice would be appreciated!

[willsnewman]

Fatima Yamaha? Four Tet? Maybe head along to the Hot Chip DJ set as well. I'm now at the stage where I need to see the posters to remember the acts playing...

Edit: I'll keep adding people here if I think of any. Julio Bashmore?

With the acts you've suggested I'd suggest Grimes and LCD perhaps.

Not the style your mentioning but would recommend Tensnake to anyone really, Happy disco vibe, Glow is an outstanding album

It's a touch light on that front currently for that sort of thing, few people you may enjoy.

Redlight, Bicep, Mike Skinner, Haelos (live), Honne (live), Mura Masa (live), NAO (live), Alunageorge (live), Santigold (live)

Although it's quite difficult to pick out acts, I like all of the acts you've named above but it would be daft to list everyone from the bill I like ;-)

[shuttlep]

i know Hot Chip are playing, anyone know if the 2 Bears will make an appearance?

[Boss84]

Does anybody know any of the acts playing this year that are along the lines of The Bloody Beetroots or The Toxic Avenger? Thanks in advance.

Nothing that I can see, that style of dance music fell out of favour in the about 2009, I know this because I used to go and watch acts like that myself!

Oh well, never mind. I'm not hugely into dance, just quite like that heavy style.
