Bearded Theory 2023

[Paul ™]

OUR THURSDAY NIGHT PARTY REVEALED!

The early bird catches the worm, and the early festival goer catches even more great music!! 

Thursday is guaranteed to be an extra little treat for all of you coming along early, with music from emerging talent & breakout bands such as English Teacher, Heartworms and Fräulein; guaranteed good times from Hot 8 Brass Band and Oh My God! It's The Church; Bearded faves 3 Daft Monkeys; and Queen Bee (Bristol Hi-Fi) capping the night off

Unpopular opinion amongst friends of mine but I've seen 3 Daft Monkeys so many times now that they've started to annoy me. Last time I had to leave when the sound check started and I knew how that went 😁

Outrageous, haha. I love seeing them on lineups.

Getting ridiculous now...the clashes will be a bloody nightmare.

Well happy with Skindred...the highlight for me at Beautiful Days a couple of years ago.

I was hoping for Loose Articles and I got them! Shame Longest Johns weren't announced, but maybe there's a chance with the day split announcement

It says "round out" the lineup, so sounds like we've got all the names there are.

Yeah that's true, I didn't notice that at first with initially just reacting to the late additions themselves.

Oh well, saw them at Glasto anyway so it's not a deal breaker at all

[Gnomicide]

Day splits tomorrow then, wonder if we'll getbstages too.

[Boomtowner]

I was hoping to get Kid Kapichi, instead we get the far inferior band that supported them on the last tour. Take your ear defenders if you go see Snayx

your wish is fulfilled 

[Boomtowner]

Very happy with that, I wonder why they were missed off yesterday 

[Callum_96]

Looks like they've delayed announcing the Stage Splits and only getting Kid Kapichi today

[Paul ™]

Yup delay on the splits, oh well its all good! 

[Chrisp1986]

Anyone know what delay could be?

[Flaminglippy]

Well happy with Kid Kapichi announcement. For me personally I think this is one strongest 'undercard' line ups I can remember in a very long time. 

We're doing BD as well this year and Bearded line up is head and shoulders stronger.

I guess what Bearded themselves said - they want to be certain they get it all right so a  small delay - perhaps it will come today.

[Paul ™]

Could be anything, acts waiting to confirm other possible dates that weekend, agents negotiating better slots or them just putting all the pieces together. 

[Perks]

Just looking at the line up again, its actually ridiculous, the clashes are gonna be brutal.

Honestly every time I look, I see more defo must sees.

Wonder when the splits will be out.

Part of me thinks the delay is twofold - firstly the Pretenders are listed as a festival haeadline exclusive elsewhere so if they are headlining when can we be told......and/or a headliner is still to be announced and they are waitinf for the OK on that.

Pretenders are in Stornoway (Scottish Isles) the same weekend, so could be trying to figure timings before committing to a day/stage. Also, they are not exclusive - seem to have several headline slots lined up.

This was the Pretenders own website a week or so ago listing themselves as a UK Festival Headline exclusive at the festival on the left hence my comments.

 

[Chrisp1986]

Surely Pretenders are not going to be at BT and NOT headlining
