really nice to see Deathcrash on there, been loving their debut.

Stunning live band. Will be a highlight for sure.

Now the important question…what’s the odds on managing to get a ticket now?

I'm thinking they'll be this year's Caroline or Scalping, two bands that came into their respective summers with London underground reputations, played the small stages at both GM and EOTR and blew people away.

Actually now I say that, the last two "proper" GMs have had the Thursday headliner not even in the largest print, though I don't think they advertised four headliners straight away then.

The strange thing is that the email suggests that there are five headliners?

This is very intriguing!  Looking forward to how this all ends up looking.

The important thing for now is that the line up is brilliant and incredibly diverse - I love it!

Listening to Witch. very cool!

Their social media specifies the four (IG: "Feast those ears on your headliners @kraftwerkofficial, @michaelkiwanuka, @beaccchhoussse & @metronomy"), and the music site news reports do too.

Yes that’s true. Which is why the way the email is phrased is odd!

I hope one of you good people are sorting out a Spotify Playlist now 😉

Last year was my first GM, but I feel like the mountain stage already went refreshingly late compared to lots of festivals. It’s one festival where you could feasibly have a “double headliner” and both are in the dark?

It doesn’t feel unimaginable that they could do that and have Bicep on after Kraftwerk/Metronomy (those being the two more likely imo)

First timer here, what time did the headliners play last year? Cheers

Caribou was 11:15pm -12:45am

Mogwai was 11pm - 12:30am

Fontaines was 10:40pm - 11:45pm.

 

So actually quite late for a UK fest tbh

[OddRon]

Super chuffed with that, lots of acts I love and I've been trying to see Beach House for 6 years now.

Thanks! I didn’t have the specific times to hand, I knew that Caribou and Mogwai finished after midnight

[Yoss]

End of the Road is and will remain my festival of choice, it's only this year I'm able to do the double-header the way the dates have worked out.

Looks like it's come out as a good year for it though. Happy with that. Definitely beats EotR at the upper end of the bill.

Cheers - reminds me of how Glasto used to do it! Always something special about headliners coming on that late

I’m doing both this year, and as mentioned above GM for the first time. I love EOTR, and GM seems to have very similar vibes, not least a fair portion of the acts! I agree though, GM much stronger top end of the bill this year - likely headliners & subs. 

[the wonderwhy]

Green Man's headliners blow EOTR's out the water, although I have to say I probably prefer the later's 2nd/3rd lines. Just. Rest of the GM lineup gets the win though. 

I do hope we get Nilufer Yanya added tho.

I think Frazey Ford - she was in the band that featured in that Breaking Bad episode.

Ah man, that's no good. I'm pushing 50, I'll be tucked up in bed by then.

Not had a chance to have a proper look yet but Kraftwerk, Beach House, Metronomy and Low from the top are all good.

Working on something big. Keep your eyes peeled fellow Greenies!
