pehingduck Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 bdrmm have posted on their social media that they're playing at 2.30 (Clashfinder says 2.45), and Opus Kink have posted saying they're on at 12 (Clashfinder says 12.30). Is it better to believe the set times the bands themselves are posting, or what's on Clashfinder (which I believe matches the official programme)?

The clashfinder is taken from the programme, so would read as correct normally, but the times printed for settlement bands for Wednesday in the programme were 2 hours earlier than actual, so make of that what you will. I plan to be half an hour for Opus Kink, no way I want to miss any of their set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's quite a bit of that for me this time. What initially looked like an alright line up has grown to be a clash extravagancy. I could happily see most bands each day and not be disappointed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCruz Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 Bar Italia cancelled their gig at Paredes de Coura today due to a medical emergency. Wonder if that means GM will be cancelled as well. https://www.instagram.com/p/C-p8pT3IfOh/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to be half an hour for Opus Kink, no way I want to miss any of their set Pretty shoddy planning really when there’s so many overlaps of bands too. Hope the main run of their timetable is more accurate as I’ll be leaving some early to catch others and if this is how it’ll play out will end up missing loads. surprised there’s no app again this year. Would’ve been nice to have times on hand. But then suppose signal is an issue there anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Tommy_ Posted August 15 Report Share Posted August 15 Still literally no idea what to expect weather wise today, but the upshot is, every other day is outstanding. Enjoy the festival everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBC reckons gusty winds and high chance of rain at 11 and 5 Met Office reckons the worst of the wind will pass before the music, but don't forget the site is in a valley - I know there was one year there were yellow warnings for wind and it didn't affect things much. They also say light but persistent showers, worst between 6 and 8, then drifting off to drizzle before midnight, followed by a dry and warm weekend. There'll be rain on Monday but most should have left by the time it arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
