Decent looking line-up, so hope you have a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffinghell Posted September 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) Some thoughts after Noel G last night... they need someone better on the sound desk. The Cribs sound was muddy, which was a shame because they put on a good show. Happy Mondays sound was good, but not exceptional. Noel G sound was bad down front, but better towards the back. The big issue though is the size of the site. It's just not big enough. Very little outside space with that tent, and they had the sides of the tent closed in to allow for VIP and Gold areas, and two inside bars. It made for a very unpleasant experience for the headline when the tent was nearer to capacity. Would be better as open air.

sheffinghell Posted September 4, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Self Esteem day was probably half to 2/3 capacity. It was seriously good value with stellar sets from Self Esteem and Confidence Man, a solid performance from Natalie Imbruglia and fun from Bimini, Numpties and the circus acts. Plus, the BBC Introducing stage lineup was really good, especially Precious Pepala, Oh Papa and Gia Ford. Essentially, you were never more than two minutes away from music. Not sure why they had a pop-up Honda bike dealership or a gigantic and expensive pick n mix stall, but the small number of food outlets seemed good quality. Limited beer choices, but not dire. Would go again for this type of day, but not for the Noel Gallagher type of day which was a different vibe, over-crowded and suffered from sound issues.

the hitcher Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Really good couple of days the sound was definitely rubbish Friday! Saturday might have been one of my favourite days at a festival this year! Loved it from start to finish, ended the night next to nick banks and Richard Hawley, didn’t quite click who they were till it was slightly too late. I was talking to nick banks thinking ‘I know you but where from’ 😂 wish I’d asked him if pulp are playing Glastonbury next year 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know much about her, but wonder if it will sell any better than Self Esteem last year, which was max half full, even with loads of freebies.

Even just Spotify listeners you're looking at 150k vs 16.4m. No idea if her day sells out but Hill is on a whole other level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spotify isn't a great indicator, but you're right - Becky Hill plays arenas, Self Esteem doesn't. It should do a bit better, although it is surprising a Self Esteem hometown show didn't do very well.

Critically acclaimed but probably not gone true mainstream unlike Becky Hill, which is no bad thing. Think Self Esteem will be a good shout for subbing main stage at Tramlines this year. Seen her live 3 times and brilliant each time as well as seeing her in the West End in Cabaret last month and was unbelievable in that. A true talent.

bexj Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Milburn completely passed me by, I mean totally, no idea who they are. Any good, or indie landfill? Struggle to see how that line-up would sell unless its around £35... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
