2000 Trees 2022

[justanothername]

Pretty confident that the secret set is gonna be Heck now. Haggard Cat have shared something about a made up band doing a reunion show on the 4th of July. The poster features a NPAG logo and the event description mentions this band was "good as dead".

Timing all works perfectly for Trees.

Yeah it's them. Weird choice I'd say because plenty of people will turn away when they have no clue who they are. Should have just announced the reunion.

Looks like the regrettes ending their UK tour early due to covid. Any chance of a replacement this late on?

Probably not thought they've just added RXPTORS to the Thursday

Oh yeah I'm not saying they aren't food, just that they'd probably be a bit heavy for anyone expecting Hundred Reasons, Xcerts, Lenman etc. And they weren't exactly well known, and definitely aren't recognisable to look at

Just in case anyone isnt aware, doors on the Wednesday has changed from 3pm to noon.

Ithaca was one of 2 bands I was excited to see on the Thursday so that is a blow for me.

Also Heck setlist last night mentions it's a 2000trees warm up. No idea if that was mentioned at all last night by Heck but I feel like it's 99% guaranteed to be them for the secret set.

Seriously hoping it's to do with logistics

just picked up a day ticket cheap off of twickets for this on Thursday.

Witch Fever out due to illness, Graphic Nature replacing them 

[JimMacVeigh]

Hey guys. Bit last minute, I’ve got a spare Friday ticket. If you, or someone you know is interested, drop me a DM and we can discuss it. If not, no problem.

So just got back from trees and have to say the changes from when I went previously aren't for the good.

The cashless system they've put im place is really bad. Given that I'd be unlikely to attend again.

If they did get AFI back next year I'd definitely go to shows elsewhere if they did similar do JEW.

The cashless system isn't new, and works perfectly fine

Been here all weekend with no issues whatsoever. Really simple effective system

I've not been for a few years.

Personally it's poor. Queueing up to top up your card tag and losing money if you don't spend it all.

If it's perfectly fine, why was there a bigger queue at the cashless issues point on the first day than at the topup point at one point?

You can get your remaining money back and the queue for issues was because didn't fucking listen to what they needed to do, I had two in my group who didn't. No sympathy if you think an 8 digit code is 23 digits long like the one they told you to use.

What's a code go to do with it?

So what when you run out of money and have to go queue to top up when you're right the other end buying food? Stupid! Just accept cards and it's so much easier. Toilets have improved massively but the setup of the site now is crap.

Could always use the site wi fi which was very good around the bars and top up on your online account. Worked like a dream

Wasn't all to do with the codes. I had issues that related to getting bar funds added. It was sorted quickly on Wednesday with no queue though
