[itskinglizard]

starting this now, cause ATG '24 is next week and James said on the podcast today that he already has around 30 bands booked for next year

no headliners booked in yet but we can expect an announcement of some sort hopefully in September

 

Clown Core are almost definitely going to return to play the slot they had to pull from this year

Edited August 9 by itskinglizard

[Alex Winstone]

Polyphia, McLusky, Carpenter Brut, Jesus Lizard, Health, KEN Mode and Aaronson

Carpenter Brut would be so good, Polyphia would be nice to just tick them off my bucket list tbh 

 

I'm still really wanting to see 65daysofstatic at some point too

[Joy91]

Clown Core coming back would be epic, and Polyphia is definitely a bucket list band.

[Rusty Spoon]

Missed this year's festival as was in Dublin for AC/DC. Would have been all over the Mogwai day at the very least.

 

Hopefully they can somehow make an equally appealing line-up next year.

[itskinglizard]

Really hoping we get an announcement this month, it was mentioned on the podcast they might and that around 30 or so bands were booked

 

likely more now

Hello.

If one was to go on their own (i.e. me), that would be fine, wouldn't it? Is there a 'quiet' camping or is it all very civilised in the camping department?

I always wanted to go to the Arc, but it's ALWAYS the same weekend as Green Man which has been our family festival. However, next year, we are having a break from the Green Man. And I have been given special dispensation to FINALLY get to the Arc. 

Which is nice. 🙂

I would say ATG is definitely the chillest, friendliest festival I've ever had the pleasure of, and the campsites generally aren't rowdy and everyone is nice and respectful! It's got such a lovely community vibe

[retromoz]

Thank you kindly. 🙂

Our first line up announcement coming Tuesday!

[Gummy de Milo]

At a loss as to who it could be. Hoping for Melvins or Mastodon.

[Andrinald]

My guess is either The Jesus Lizard or possibly Between The Buried And Me (I think they'll be announced, just not sure if they'll headline).

[zahidf]

Adebisi Shank are reforming and announcing gigs this week....

[scatteredscreens]

I'm going to say, Have a Nice Life, but maybe not to headline, just undercard

[BenG92]

[bingobear]

solid start for me 

[ramusgrove]

Fantastic start - fingers crossed that the two BTBAM sets are Thursday to Saturday, otherwise I'll be upgrading my ticket 

[jonday81]

Recently announced on the 2 Promoters One Pod podcast that Wednesday next year will have two stages instead of the usual one. More stages means more bands!!

[Gummy de Milo]

Any news on when the next lineup drop is?

[mungo57]

also interested in more lineup news.... I'm hoping to go next year after not getting a Glasto ticket. Would go based on 3/4 bands from the first announcement but having listened to a lot of them, seems like a good lineup for the £! Would be interesting to see who headlines the other days..... 

[Gummy de Milo]

Im at a loss every year at who it could be. Im really hoping for 65Daysofstatic and TMV, but i feel like the latter is just gonna exist in my dreams.

[Gummy de Milo]

Announcement to be end of jan/start of feb. Future of the Left likely to be at one or both of Trees/ATG.

[Olivedal 1904]

Some predictions given other festivals taking place around the Arctangent dates:

 

Cult of Luna, Brutus, envy, Carpenter Brut, Solstafir, Pelican, Monolord, Pothamus, Rezn, Hangmans's Chair, Myrkur, Vestige, Wayfarer, Houle.

[NorthernSoul52]

Cult of Luna seems sensible. Hoping they squeeze a line-up drop out before Christmas, but I'm not holding my breath.

[mungo57]

I was thinking Pelican must be a shoe in given they'll be touring. Literally got into them about a week ago when YouTube recommended me them!

 

I might well volunteer at Arc - last year they were offering 1 shift for a free ticket for the weekend for stewards. Only didn't do it as I couldn't get the time off work (work at House of Commons, and we were still balls deep in the general election then).
