Totally agree!

King Krule is/are really, really bad.

Can someone explain King Krule to me. Most baffling headliner I can recall fam.

After weeks of intensive research and repeat listening, I found one track which was sort of OK, but I've forgotten what it was.

[goldengirl]

If anyone isn't feeling the headliners on either stage one day, I can recommend trying the inflatable observatory which is usually open during the headline slot I think...

I'll probably watch the garden headliners on Sat/Sunday. Agree Little Simz probably would have headlined if she was booked in 2021 instead of 2020.

Sleafords have an unmistakable wit and punchy appeal. King Krule I just don't get. Do they have any good tunes?

hehehe, you talking about King Krule sounds exactly like my Ma talking about Kid A era Radiohead

 

As it goes, I quite like the Ooz, - the latest one didn't grab me in the same way, but I guess I'm not really the target audience for him. I think live, he'll have quite the band/set up with him, so think it could be quite a decent spectacle in those terms

In an understandably difficult, "light" lineup year it's a real shame the two biggest pulls for me - John Grant and Hot Chip - clash.

On a separate note can someone direct me to the up to date Spotify playlist that was updated following the 30+ bands in & out of a few weeks ago. I keep finding I'm playing the one that has now cancelled bands in it.

(I'll be at Richard Dawson, for the avoidance of doubt, but based on that show above, there's some interesting stuff there)

At first glance the acts I wanted to see seem well spread across the weekend- a couple of clashes but I found last time I was able to catch a good chunk of each set with the stages so close together. And apart from headliners, EOTR are good at staggering the set times between stages. I’m hoping Dry Cleaning will fit the gap between second and last main stage acts on Sunday eve

Anyone got any nice tips for new or smaller bands?

I’ve been doing one here (not yet up to date with all of today’s additions, but I’m working on it):

I think its quite substantial! The Grant/Chip clash is a bummer in the summer, however, full agreement.

[Dancers Stand Very Still]

Glad that came out today! Really helped with a couple of split decisions I had at GM. Cheers Swashbubbler too for updating the Clashfinder 👍

Looking forward to having a proper look next week.

Apologies for the obsession but just noticed that a third of Beak are already there as Will Young is playing with Modern Nature on the Saturday.

Teleman a welcome unexpected addition

This might be my favourite news of 2021 - not that there's much competition! Bloody love Teleman.

The Golden Dregs should be a soothing start to Saturday.
