The Festival thread

[O Fenomeno]

There tings there I mean pure

All colors

[Flojo]

Outstanding work with the dye, the most inventive door policy for keeping the man dem away that I've ever seen.

[Mame Biram Diouf]

Wireless line up sounded shit this year, chose to leave it

lmfao.

 

Someone offered me a ticket for me for today but when I checked YT to see what it was actually like(along with the music), I was out.

 

Heard from someone I know who went yesterday they were playing hip-hop and reggae and shit though - wouldn't be surprised if her idea of them genre's was wrong. Maybe some mix or suttin I heard it's meant to be like electro-dance.

[Da Luv Doc]

Drove past today as well, DO NOT WANT.

Glastonbury was alright, though none of the big names were amazingly attractive to my personal tastes.

 

Danny Brown could have been way better. Wasn't close enough to properly enjoy De La Soul but they were decent but seemed incomplete how they didn't properly cover the chorus sample for Me Myself and I (they were using a live band instead of samples, and obviously the chorus is the Funkadelic - Knee Deep sample but they didn't have a singer), and also they played Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc but they didn't have someone/use the acapella for the singing part.

The Wailers were good but I missed half, didn't get to see Jurassic 5.

Kasabian and Jack White were pretty good. Ed Sheeran was decent. 

 

I wasn't with the right people at the right time to properly go and enjoy much of the electronic music/DJs but I'm not super fussed.

 

Festival is too big, even if you get people who don't clash its an effort to get to them on time if you're with other people, and the mud made getting from one place to another such an effort.

Wireless on Friday. Kanye + Pharrell should be decent.

St Paul's Carnival in Bristol on Saturday, two soundsystem lineups i've found

 

(1st part)

[Young £]

went to the holione in southampton (havent watched the video if that was it)

 

was sickkkkk, the dye was jokes tbh, and they played reggae at the main stage for bout 45 mins

 

and flojo your right lol, the mandem were there but weren't trying to get no dye on their gucci lol

[Greens]

Had a fully sick 5 days at Glastonbury, I am a broken man today.

 

Pretty much swerved any of the bigger stages apart from Massive Attack on the last night.

 

Spent all other time around the dance stages and shangri-la/block 9. The sheer size of it all can be overwhelming at some points and the mud got long after friday.

 

My feet are fucked.

Wireless parring it with the act times, Pharrell's set overlaps Basement Jaxx + Meridian Dans, definitely feels like a waste

will probably check Etta Bond + Angel Haze's sets before Pharrell's then Kanye's

[Ephren Taylor]

That happened last year with 2Chains overlapping ASAP Mob

 

Luckily, we left towards the end of 2chains set and caught the end of ASAP Mobs set, cos Nas snuck out straight after. Didnt even know he was on the lineup last year til he crept out on a humble ting

 

Typing that just got me excited for Friday & Saturday

 

 

As Jhene Aiko is in town, is she gonna make a suprise appearance?

[dub]

wouldn't be surprised if she was on Drake's, but she can't perform so it may be a letdown

[Ephren Taylor]

Thought she was alright when she came out at the concert earlier this year

 

Just seen the weather forecast for Saturday

[Young £]

Sonus anyone?

 

any croatia vets?

[dub]

I know maybe 3 artists on that lineup? But Croatia is nice and cheap (or is around Pula - where Dimensions + Outlook are)

[Da Luv Doc]

Croatia is good. Natives loves black people.

[Guest eights]

Worth reaching wireless without a ticket or nah?

[kerser]

Yeah, give uncoor a score on da door

[Guest eights]

Are you sure?

[Kuffir]

last year defo but it's different security so maybe not

[Ephren Taylor]

If all else fails....The touts

 

Is it worth reaching Essex Fest?

[imhim]

finsbury pak to see di monkees in full effect wid di tops off showing deh henchness

[Ephren Taylor]

Drizzy has cancelled

 

Kanye headlining both days now

[Thizz]

   

[Sole]

the amount of man I know planning to break into wireless I wouldn't be surprised if it gets locked off

I'm hearing talk like "if there is more than 100 of us how they gonna stop us rushing the doors"

smh

[Thizz]

This is why I hate people.
