Neighbourhood Weekender 2019

[DDave]

Half decent Sunday. Saturday is a bit of a car crash. Fuck me, George Ezra is so fucking boring live. 

[gfa]

I think what maybe should be commended is the mid range acts, theres huge variety look at Kate Nash on here:

vs Kate Nash at Community:

 

8th versus 3rd down (hopefully 4th) for a fairly similarly sized and marketed festival (other than the two days vs one)

[Jonesy1]

Sundays not bad, but not making the trip for one day so the hotels been cancelled. Some step down from last year.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

It's certainly going for a more diverse crowd this time, not sure about the logic of George Ezra headlining when there are no other Capital FM acts anywhere else on the bill though.

I think it looks better than last year's, but I wouldn't go still. Not really targeted at peeps like me though..

I guess George Ezra is just being touted around all the suitable festivals, and most will jump at the chance to book him based on his ridiculous sales.

Does anyone know about prices? Mainly want to know about day tickets

No nor me, although with Sound City getting less and less interesting by the year I'd probably pop along if there was a group going and it moved a couple more inches further away from Dark Fruits Twitter. So maybe next year.

£55 per day or £105 for the weekend.

Weekend ticket is £95.50 after fees so day tickets will be £50 I would assume, maybe £55.

Looks like i'll be listening from the garden and even that's a push on the Saturday.

Definitely doing the Sunday- had tickets for Ashcroft at the Albert hall the other week but can't make the rescheduled date as I'm out the country for a few months. 

Plenty of smaller acts I like in there throughout that'll probably make me do the weekend - pale waves, embrace, maximo park, sea girls, the Amazon's, fuzzy sun, clean cut kid, slow readers club, whenyoung, gaz coombes. Also like primal scream and vaccines too.

That said theres everything I hate about one side of this sort of music - gerry cinnamon, Sam fender, George Ezra but hopefully that should reduce clashes and an early dart on the Saturday won't hurt as we wont be staying nearby this time.

George Ezra fans are in for a shock when a ketty Bobby G rocks up singing about swastikas 

[SCG95]

Not for me that! 

After this years line up, it was always going to be tricky to follow up with anything on par. 

[DannyEvo]

After last year this is very disappointing.

Sunday may be worth a day ticket - Saturday is absolutely terrible though.

Ashcroft is absolutely nailed on.

Do I get bonus points?

It's the same for The Amazons & Gerry Cinnamon. It's the whole day that makes it rather than just a headliner.

Thinking of getting my tix for this. Any idea how well it's selling?

It sold out within an hour last year and this time it’s been on sale what, 2 months? I would guess you’ll be safe until at least the second announcement!

Going for the Saturday,  would of preferred embrace later in the day on the 2nd stage. 

Am I right in saying the 2 other stages finishes before Ezra comes on?

They did last year as I watched all of Editors and had time to stroll over for the start of Noel. No distance between stages at all.

Makes getting home on the Saturday easier - watching primal scream and leaving.....

Excited about Ashcroft and vaccines on the Sunday though!

Yes that’s our plan, trains booked and leave before Ezra comes on. Although that might change if you me at 6 are on at same time.
