I also had no idea who LUMP were until now. Oh yeah me neither with LUMP! Really enjoying that album and hoping they’re going to release more stuff this year. Big fan of Otoboke Beaver, will be lots of fun! I struggle to get into bands like KOKOROKO! on record but I imagine they’ll be good live!

lessthanwill1 Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 So I could never get into Thundercat that much on record but I’ve been watching a lot of live videos recently and my god, the man is incredible! The drummer and the keyboardist are insane as well - definitely a must see for me now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeroplane Over the Sea Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 First female / female led headliner since PJ at Green Man. Last year’s decision not to headline Sharon was quite bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benali Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 The floods in Crickhowell look horrible. The A40 is closed there due to the weather. I wonder how much of Glanusk Park is underwater? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how much of Glanusk Park is underwater? The Glanusk estate Twitter says there are "disruptions" on the land and fallen trees in the area. Damage to the roads around the site will likely be the longer-term problem - this is the road that the entrance is on and I think this part is the bridge on the right as you approach from the A40/A465.

lessthanwill1 Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) Looks awful. That pub by the bridge - The Bridge End I think - was badly flooded not that long ago as well. Important for GM attendees to visit the town during the festival and spend a bit of money I think. Such a nice town.

Such a nice town. It's a yearly tradition for us to go get food from the bridge end at Saturday lunch time. The walk along the river really helps clear the hangover and is one of the highlights of my year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had plans to walk up the mountain behind the main stage on Friday morning and then have lunch/pint at the Bridge Inn but sadly didn't happen - this year!

lessthanwill1 Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 What about The Avalanches? New song is premiering tomorrow. Liked by GM on Twitter (though this wasn’t done recently). Seem to be active in May/June but nothing later yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lessthanwill1 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 GM have started following The Fiery Furnaces on twitter. They've just announced their first show in nine years this week at Pitchfork Music Festival. Eleanor Friedberger, one half of the Fiery Furnaces, played GM in 2018. Might be a possibility for the next announcement - would be an interesting booking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t find anything online about them beyond a similar description to the one on GM’s page - but the description sounds like something I’m going to really like. https://www.greenman.net/artists/caroline Here you go mate.

I’d see they were supporting Lankum this year so had expected something like this though I had originally imagined something a bit more “rockier”. Sounds pretty cool though. Love the video.
