Yes there are two campervan locations- small one for settlers- but the main one is over the bridge. Not sure if the trolleys are there- they are always by the main car park which is only a 10 min walk

Thanks for clarifying. I didn't realise there was another campervan field for non-settlers as we're always in settlers and I just thought they were all in there.

Not sure I've ever been that far over the bridge in that direction!

Mr Trolley has been on the other side (non-settlers) in the past, close to the wrist banding.  You can only return the trolley to the side you collect it fyi

So just to check - we're still waiting on a fourth headliner?

Instagram/Twitter replies suggest a further line-up announcement is imminent...

Doesn't look like you are going to get that fourth headliner now, maybe someone bumped up in the lineup.

Remember they have to make another announcement anyway as there's still about 30 artists down on last year, and unlike 2019 when Yo La Tengo were moved up to headline at a late stage (it was announced in July with the day splits) they're actively mentioning that there's a headliner to come.

Osees won't be added. I asked their merch guy at Wide Awake and he said not this year. Gutted!

Also gutted.  They were one of my Green Man discoveries a few years ago.

I guess you mentioned EOTR too?

Yeah, but the line up is pretty much done for that so it was already unlikely.

Rising competition shortlist is out: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaFfd0Y8PRwkP9wON6EoTDiksuCiFkCke0uzr_u3G_7cGYuw/viewform

Voted Joyeria for this, that would HONESTLY MAKE my Green Man experience hearing Here Comes Trouble live, HOLY DAMN! 😄😍

I heard a rumour The Smile are playing, any truth to this?

Nothing more than guesswork as far as I know, on the belief that as they have a month-long US tour starting in about three weeks' time and may well have been in the studio the announcement is being held up by an embargo, which isn't impossible (although as it's less than twelve weeks away they'd be cutting it fine) but it's more likely to be due to needing a replacement after a pull-out.

I honestly think GM should snap up Royal Blood for a headline set in Far Out or sub on Mountain.

a) no; b) they're headlining Y-Not and Truck, both much bigger than GM.

Self Esteem added as a headliner

[Andeeroo]

I thought it would be a bigger name but I'm stoked for Self Esteem.

[benali]

Eddie Chacon!! So happy with that, such a great addition.

Self Esteem - meh. 

Some good other stuff like Mary in the Junkyard, Mandy, Indiana, Minor Conflict, Sam Akpro, Aoife Nessa Francis.

[benali]

Friday is absolutely stacked. Clashes all over the place all day there.

[SweepingTheNation]

Self Esteem is clearly a "someone pulled out and maybe a couple of other choices didn't come through" booking but it makes sense, both for how much of a draw she is now and that apart from one Sheffield tent gig a couple of weeks later it tops and tails the Prioritise Pleasure era at the same place.

Bit of a weak second announcement but there's a few things of interest. Seems the Clashfinder is being updated as I type so I'll have to see how everything works out then. I notice they're not opening Mountain on Thursday after last year's first time.

[Coopa]

Disappointed with it being self esteem, but that makes a free run for clipping and then goat if timings stay as last year! Any pointers on the other additions would be great

Friday is nuts, so good! I'll be glad for a more laid back Saturday after that but clashes everywhere. I assume PVA and Daniel Avery will be at the same time?

Last Dinner Party on Rising?

I’d never heard of them until recently but their one Spotify song seems to have loads of listens and they are on Woodsies at Glasto (albeit first one). 
 

Edit, like the look of it overall but Young Fathers / First Aid Kit abit annoying. I’ll try and catch YF at glasto
