2000 Trees 2024

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

They were in Bristol last night weren't they? So very possible given James books and attends gigs in Bristol, even though they've said it's the full line up I still think there's gaps

For any fans of James' podcast (2 Promoters, 1 Pod), they'll be doing a live version on stage at Trees one afternoon. Also likely to do one one morning at ATG.

Outstanding podcast this. Everyone that goes to festivals need to give it a listen.

Trophy Eyes said tonight they're currently in talks to do a UK festival this year. As they're in the US during Slam Dunk, Trees must be the most likely? R&L being the only other one I can think of but without any other EU dates announced so far, I can't see them going out of their way to book them.

They’re touring with Boston Manor in September so not sure they’d come back in July too? Could be Reading and Leeds as you said!

Wait how do you know this? Nothing's been announced yet? I had tickets to the cancelled 2020 Boston Manor x Trophy Eyes tour so this would be a nice surprise

Check their Instagram post from yesterday, clue in the emojis 😉

I'd imagine it's Misery Loves Company they're playing as that's announcing today.

 

Nice to see them actually book something miserable this year, they missed the brief last year.

Yeah I gave them too much credit thinking they'd actually book some emo bands to fit the name of the festival

Also ruled out of R&L with their Australia tour. The Trees dream is still alive.

They're threatening a full clashfinder soon on social media, I reckon I'm on for Saturday as soon as they confirm Frank Turner and Creeper don't clash. Those are the two big draws still for my partner so them clashing probably makes it a no (even if I'd go to all three days).

No chance that happens, either it'll be Creeper in between Frank and Broco, or Creeper clash with Broco. It'll either be Lonely the Brave or Death From Above clashing with Frank.

interesting on todays pod to hear James saying something along the lines of trees headliners needing to be able to sell out ally pally  granted Gaslight and Broco probably could but where on earth do The Chats fit that description.

as a side note to that I was surprised to see The Chats confirm an extensive winter UK tour yesterday. thought they'd wait til after Trees

Definitely feels as if someone fell through or they struggled to get someone and bumped The Chats up. I'd have moved Frank over to headline.

Its interesting to see that the chats are playing Electric Ballroom granted its for 3 nights

Blanket at Trees (announced on the podcast). Very happy with that as their new album is excellent.

Also seemed to let slip that it'll be The Cave clashing with Main at Trees as he said "main will clash with third...Well 4th at arctangent" which was the main talking point but they'd just come off a point about Trees.

 

Was pretty obvious for Thursday but could go either way for Fri and Sat really.

Think I missed that comment. Don't think it would change my plans too much, would make my worst clash Manchester Orchestra vs Movements. 

 

Interesting to hear James admit he had to beg Don Broco to do the festival as well as he was struggling with bookings, all but confirms that The Chats were most likely bumped up due to struggling to find suitable headliners.

 

Do wonder who the holy grail booking who gave him some hope were. Alexisonfire or Deftones are my reckoning given he mentioned about the logistics of flying them in.

I've heard him mention Deftones and Biffy as holy grail bookings in the past.

 

I think given Simon is back again suggests he enjoyed himself last year, not sure if they all still live in the UK so don't know if they'd match the flight thing

It seems I am going to my first 2000 Trees this year. I told my girlfriend, I had entered a NHS ballot for tickets on Concert for Carers as I liked a few bands. 

 

I am not really expecting to win but as my partner would not want to camp if I did win, she started looking for hotels just in case I get lucky. I told her what bands I would like to see and mentioned that Thumpasaurus are playing as she is a big fan. Once, I mentioned them she wanted to know how much tickets cost. They are doing the £50 off for weekend tickets and so we got from me casually saying I had entered a draw to booking tickets. I am always entering NHS draws and must have entered over 200 for Concert for Carers and won 16 times, so really thought it unlikely I will win.

 

When I look at the poster its a case of bands I like and know and go to see or the bulk of it is people I know nothing about. Obviously, if i dont want to become single,so we are going to see Thumpasaurus 😃. Most of the names, I dont have a clue about.

 

I am a fan of The Gaslight Anthem, Cassette, Empire State Bastard, Crawlers, As December Falls, Dead Pony, Creeper, Frank Turner, Don Broco, Static Dress & Hot Milk.

 

There are others, I have seen at festivals or in support slots and so am aware of their sound i.e Bob Vylan, The Mysterines, King Nun, Nova Twins, The Pale White, Bears in Trees, & Pet Needs .

 

I already plan to listen to Hot Mulligan & The Chats as I have heard of them but have not actually heard their tunes.

 

So, if anyone has any recomendations of who is worth a listen to before going I would be gratful of the advice. There is clearly more on the poster, I dont know then bands I am familar with.

Some of my favourites you haven't mentioned:

Into It. Over It., Spanish Love Songs, Los Campesinos, Manchester Orchestra, Sweet Pill, Blank Atlas, NOBRO, Movements, Cherym

Many thanks for the tip's, I will certainly give them a listen. It should be easier to do some research once the splits etc come out and we have some times.

If you like Gaslight Anthem then Spanish Love Songs are well worth a listen!

 

Lauran Hibberd is great fun too, always good live and good humour. Not to be taken too seriously. 

 

Cleopatrick are pretty cool. Bit of a Royal Blood vibe but a bit heavier. 

 

The Xcerts are great live. Scottish rock band with pop punk elements. 
 

Dune Rats are a sick little skater punk band from Australia. Similarities to FIDLAR in their sound/vibe.
