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 

Last Dinner Party are going to be big, so half way up the Rising stage does seem a bit low for them.

They are signed to Universal, had some great support gigs. Would expect Rising to be rammed for them.

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?

Maybe, both doing after dark by the looks of it but hopefully not a complete clash. Would watch Avery though as not seen him live and seen PVA loads.

Was annoying that he clashes with Osees at Wide Awake but it's Osees so they won out last weekend.

For those who have been how long should we expect the subs to get on stage?

[Lunabella]

What chance is there of getting 2 tickets for this now?

Mountain Stage sub and second sub get an hour.

If anyone wants a check of potential splits: https://clashfinder.com/s/gm2023/

No pressure on you 😁 how accurate do you think this is?

Very tempted if I can pick up a couple of tickets but Delgados & Jockstrap would be my 'must sees' and they are worryingly close

There were 2 separate Adult tickets on Fanticks earlier . I’d say a good chance as festival gets closer , but you have to jump on them quickly.

They're using last year's times so ballpark figures at least. GM have already confirmed Slowdive are on half an hour before Devo and it might be that the latter are on slightly later so I should think there's a low chance of them overlapping but we won't know for certain until the programme times are posted on the Monday of the festival.

clashfinder has confidence man at 1.00 in the morning, surely not?

They're in the late night post-headliner position on the poster and it's been confirmed they don't overlap with Self Esteem (which would have been stupid regardless)

[collectivisedfarming]

Fairly neutral on self esteem, who I'll see if not a direct clash with clipping. PVA, Fat Dog, Daniel Avery and James Holden is a pretty good late night lineup, bit of everything there. Particularly keen to catch James Holden who I've only seen previously with The Animal Spirits. 

[arteet]

Won’t be everyone’s thing but abit disappointed to see the hot tub people won’t be there this year apparently. Enjoyed chilling in there for a couple of hours

Thinking through my plan...

Thursday: Run up Pen Cerrig-calch | bimble about, maybe check out Cinedrome | Try the Lost Map Weird Wave thing | Sister Wives | Spiritualized 

Friday: Juni Habel | Mega Bog | Minor Conflict | Dur-Dur Band International | Butch Kassidy | Jockstrap | University | Salami Rose Joe Louis | The Comet is Coming or Squid | Slowdive | bit of DEVO | Daniel Avery | Hagop Tcharparian 

Saturday: Yasmin Williams | deathcrash | Julie Byrne | Morgan Noise | Etran de l'Air | Anna B Savage | Obongjayar | Lankum | The Walkmen | Water From Your Eyes | Mandy, Indiana | Clipping | Confidence Man 

Sunday: Kanda Bongo Man | Jake Xerxes Fussell | Eddie Chacon | julie | Nuha Ruby Ra | Lilo | Alabaster dePlume | Arushi Jain | Les Savy Fav | Gilla Band | Sudan Archives | Young Fathers | James Holden  

Friday and Saturday looking the best for me overall but the run of acts in the Far Out Sunday evening is absolutely sublime! 

Think we're still due a handful of acts so maybe a few more gems might be announced. 

Top five for me I think will be: Slowdive, clipping, Les Savy Jav, Sudan Archives and Jockstrap.

So seeing that clash finder has confidence man on at 1.00am, does that mean it's fair to say it'll be a DJ set like they're doing at Glastonbury this year?

No, it's never been listed as anything other than a regular live set, just one in the late night slot. We won't know if it actually will be that late but the festival has said they won't clash with Self Esteem.

Anyone even more excited after seeing any bands over the weekend at Glasto (or on tele?). Personally I cannot wait to see Jockstrap and Young Fathers now! 

[slumberjack]

Our campervan pass arrived this morning!

[mario man]

Back from Glasto yesterday, and after  spending the wkend with my daughter and seeing less music than normal (however a LOT of time in T&C which was wonderful) I cannot wait to spend 4 days solo at GM catching as much music as possible

We passed by Young Fathers on West Holts and watched 5mins, I was 50/50 whether to see them at GM but defo not missing them now, they looked amazing! 

[Jogga0]

Stupid question, but anyone want to sell their GM23 motorhome or campervan pass? 😃

[Sawman]

Saw a few bands in the lineup at Glastonbury and can recommend Say She She and Kanda Bongo Man - both will be great with the sun shining

[GM newbie]

Thrilled that we got tickets after a total lack of success last couple of years. We can only drive over on the Friday, and I wanted to check whether that's going to be a problem for standard camping? Is there usually a lot of room or is turning up late a no-no?

You will be fine. You might have to walk a bit to the far end to find some space. But space will be there. 🙂

what's the campervan field like?  Do you need to arrive early to get a good spot or does it matter less?

It's a small field, you can walk the whole of it ten minutes max.
