Green Man 2019

Far Out to Rising and the Main Stage is probably ten minutes maximum. 

I've seen Far Out full before, but if you can get inside there is usually space in front of the mixing desk.

From the back of Far Out to Rising doesn't take long at all, especially if you avoid the Courtyard.

There's no long walk between stages at all. Maximum 10 minutes to get anywhere and even quicker if you have to. 

Thinking about doing that walk while typing this out is getting me all excited. 

[SighMo]

If you go into the Far Out stage down the right you'll nearly always get as close as you like.

Any spares going in here? My mate is on the lookout but not quick enough on twickets... 

[benali]

There's a few tickets on Gumtree. One here for £230 if it's still available.

You're in for a treat! 

If you're in blue car park, its minutes,  probably 10-12 mins from its most distant points!

Having gone from being a bit underwhelmed by the line up, I've just gone through clashfinder and the only time I'm going for a wee is sunday lunchtime!! 

Having said that, not much going on the rest of sunday so its new music discovery day! Any recommendations, prefer psych/indie to americana!

Yak, Pottery, Wych Elm, Chappaqua Wrestling and Liminanas are all on Sunday and should fit your criteria.

It’s practically all good, you’ll struggle to go wrong. If Sharon isn’t taking your fancy on the main stage then The Growlers are a pretty archetypal, albeit excellent indie band.

FWIW I saw some GM bands at the weekend. Black Country New Road, Scalping and Squid. Black Country New Road were good but not as good as I was expecting. Scalping and Squid both underwhelming.

There's no way Kate Tempest would be a back up. 

End of The Road have just added Kate Tempest so it was hardly that outlandish a suggestion.

How cramped do the campsites get? Tents on top of tents? Or a bit of breathing space?

[tjrant]

On Instagram they just said that the stage times will only be available 'onsite'.

I think this is the same as previous years when one of the Settlement types posts a picture of the programme?

Whoever posts it on here is a hero!

Compared to Glasto it's really easy. Especially if you walk a bit further in. You can actually have all your guy ropes out too.

If I get a signal, I will post them.

I put them up here and on twitter last year and will again if no one else has by the time I get there on Monday.

Nice one. Just looking at a map from a couple years back and I’m assuming there have been no major changes? I’ll be coming in from orange car park. I’ll probably head for quiet camping but if it’s full, which part of general camping should I head to for a bit more space?

As far away from the Orange Car Park as possible, so where it shows General Camping to the right hand side of the map (and beyond).  If you are used to Glastonbury, then the distances / terrain getting there are unlikely to be a problem for you.

I camp in the general camping to the right of Tangerine Fields. If you pitch right next to the line of pre-pitched tents there’s always a clear walk way to the path and last year there was no one camped in the pre pitched tents anywhere near us. It’s also close to the main stage and there are showers near by if you’re up early enough. 

[benali]

Quiet camping is the settlers field for the first few days. Normally plenty of space there all weekend because most people arriving from Thursday onwards are in the orange car park and can't be arsed to walk all that way with their stuff.

Cheers @SighMo, @Born in the fifties & @benali. Good advice!

What kind of set is Four Tet going to do? Visuals?
