jplewes Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) WH Lung have a new single/video out this week apparently, I liked them on Big Top but have really loved them having seen them a couple of times afterwards, don't understand how they're not bigger (personally!). I'd love them as a sneaky Wunderhorse replacement or a late addition somewhere. (This is just personal, if I could add something to the lineup vibes haha) Edited August 22, 2023 by jplewes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) Possible Sunday night surprise show, logistics depending Supporting Future Islands the week before. https://www.sprintsmusic.com/tourdates Edited August 22, 2023 by The Nal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillill42 Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 I do like a bit of Sprints. I've a ticket for them in October in Dublin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robith Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Who on the line up already do we think will do a late night show? For me MADMADMAD got to be a shoo in right, especially with their criminally early regular slot - reminds me a bit of AKDK a few years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather them than me. The Mary Wallopers are definitely doing an extra set somewhere, aren't they? Either stripped back at the piano stage or drunk late night.

I've just seen the 2 brothers are doing a country music set as an extra at Electric Picnic so maybe that's a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooskerdoo Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 Well I am happy to report that Deerhoof were awesome in Bristol last night, can't wait to see them on the big stage next week. And this morning I'm off to Spain to get a preview of King Gizz, Panda Bear/Sonic Boom, Crack Cloud and Lime Garden at Canela Party (along with EotR alumni such as Oh Sees, Black Midi, Squid and Shame). I'll let you know. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 Not sure what implications (if any) it has for the 24 lineup but the Electric Picnic 2024 is on two weeks earlier now, 16th August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they see the absolute horrorshow of weather last week and think "damn wouldn't it be great to put a festival on during that?" 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would really, there's still plenty of other European festivals in the same weekend or the one before as EOTR. The date for next year's Supersonic would probably have more of an effect. Edited August 23, 2023 by SweepingTheNation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edbendo Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 Convinced myself the ??? will be The Walkmen. They played Eotr before and are currently on a 10 year comeback tour of the UK, playing London the week of the festival with no dates that weekend. They were originally UK festival exclusives for Green Man, but were added to the All Points East lineup where most of the new Eotr additions can also be found. They are the right size for the slot, and the Green Man billing explains the contractual reason to not announce it sooner! Am I right?? Probably not 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

domjon Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 It's a weird line up this year isn't it? I don't think you can really deny it's a bit light on established names...and yet work your way through the clashfinder and there's barely an hour when you haven't got a tough choice between a couple of absolutely great sounding bands. If the weather plays ball and some of the upncomers really rise to the occasion I think this could end up being a vintage year. I wonder if there'll be noticeably less people on site...with all the tickets still available on twickets... Really buzzing for it now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRockRick Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 1 hour ago, robith said: it is the likeliest answer imo If it's the Walkmen, in a way it'll be slightly disappointing since everyone expects it to be the Walkmen and it won't feel like a rabbit's been pulled out of a hat, whereas if EOTR come up with something monumentally left-wing and unexpected then we can all go Whooooh, didn't see that one coming!
