There was always a fair few I wanted to see, but invariably the smaller bands would miss out in the clash stakes. Outside of the Wed/Thurs, I'm the same, and even then I didn't see indie stuff. Feel like a lot of the line-up could easily be incorporated into Woodsies, Other, BBC introducing etc. Will be interested to see what happens.

Both stages are massive and there's just nowhere an indie/alternative act could play before being big enough to play either of those. Obviously BBCI is their own genre-sprawling line up. For me, any replacement for WG wouldn't need to exclusively indie - as you say it wasn't necessarily anyway - but ideally would still provide a stage for those bands. Almost like a self-curated BBCI would be good. Quite a few emerging indie bands I'd hope could be on the line-up this year but can't see where they'd fit in without WG.

Surely the map is finished by now as they'd need it to be for so many reasons... Site build, App build etc etc. Do you think they'll want a separate announcement for the rumoured WG change?

Perhaps they're just moving it out of the way, incorporating it into a new Woodsies area? It's all speculation atm. No idea what's gonna happen.

Bike_Like_A_Mum Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 Surely someone has a leak of the map? Feels like rumours and leaks on all fronts have become really scarce in the last couple of months! They've started building...someone must know something?!

t0paz Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 The perceived problem with WG was that it was too popular on the Thursday, leading to overcrowding. I think we need to give the festival more credit than to assume they would take it away and replace it with nothing. That would just lead to anywhere else on site with acts on being far busier than they were already. It’s not like there is tumbleweed blowing through an empty Shangri La on a Thursday evening. Evolution can be a very good thing! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
