Unexpected might be in the mordor stages, these ends around 230am. Last year Haim started around 2am

I've always been under the impression they are restricted from using them after 3am  (neighbours complaining presumably) so probably not.

When does the map typically come out? And to echo another's question - is the "Seat" stage what used to be the Heineken stage?

Watain vs Dead Cross is annoying, the only two metal bands really playing literally exactly the same time

Lorde vs Jay Som too, that is the big stinker for me (Obvz watch Lorde)

Sumac are metal and very good and so are Zeal and Ardor (kinda).

Looks like it, from the acts scheduled there

Yeah I'd missed them, but looking at the members they will be right up my street!

Yeah Sumac are very Isis/Cult of Luna-esque. They clash with Deerhunter and Beach House though so I'll struggle to see them.

So how early would we have to get to the Apolo on the Monday to see Ganges? And does La [2] have a separate queue or once you're inside you can go back and forth? Because I really want to see The Men, more than Ganges...

[puckno]

Zeal and Ardor played in Oslo early March, I couldn't go but they got great live reviews (10/10 in an online fanzine and favourable chatter in blogs).

Yeah you can move between the two once you are in. Obviously if La [2] is full you won't be able to get in. 

I don't recall Monday being so busy that you couldn't turn up at 8:00 to 8:15 and not get a good position inside.

Gotta agree with Declan. Most punters came Tuesday/Wednesday last year. the Monday/ tuesday gigs were relatively quiet.

Anyone know what was discussed in the web chat? Any interesting tidbits about why things are scheduled the way they are?

[xxialac]

Some bright person on the o/s has worked out that the Hidden Stage must be where Arcade Fire played last year so definitely much more capacity. Maybe outdoors too??

[Declan]

Where did Arcade Fire play last year? Was it at the side of the Primavera Stage

Yes, on the grassy knoll

[sgreen7643]

Also, from the clashfinder I guess there could be a surprise on the Bacardi Live stage after Jon Hopkins?

where is Madlib playing? he's supposed to be Thursday but can't see him anywhere then, let alone at 5am...

I saw that on the app but its gone now.

Would suspect he has pulled out.

[ghostdancer1]

this is the most correct and up-to-date Clashfinder I think?

this one is good and has set times under the names of the acts, unlike some of the other clashfinders

several mistakes on this one, times for Desperados are mostly a little off, Day Pro acts are missing on Thursday and some on Friday, still has Madlib and anoter act at 06:50am, Aperol times appear to just be guesses...

ahh okay thank you

[ghostdancer1]

should be easily fixed though, and only minor I suppose. the one I posted might have mistakes too, but I haven't noticed any?

quite interested in the 70min set on the Hidden stage on Wednesday. all the other Hidden sets are less than 1hr, except for Belly who have exactly 1hr.

i want to believe Nick Cave is reactivating Grinderman for one and only show and no one will convince me otherwise

[MichaelsBeard]

The clash gods have been remarkably kind. I have no real headaches at all. Gutted to miss Mogwai over The National but have tickets to see them later in the year anyhow. Currently looking at this.
