Gin and tonic with a wedge of lime, not lemon. I like you!

Try it with a slice of cucumber too, I was told about this 2 weeks ago and it was quite nice. Dunno how it will taste if the drink is warm though.

Where did you get this from???

hmmmmm some clashes but overall not so bad...

After my fairly indifferent mood towards EP over the last 8 months or so and bitterness about most of the lineup, now that we're only a few days away my excitement is building nicely and I cant fooking wait to get down there.

That moment of relief as you open the first can after setting up the tent, bring it on

The Killers and Hot Chip on the same time too??

All the headlining acts seem to be clashing, bad planning IMO. They should all be following each other on the main stage really (maybe not Ed)

It now means leaving one act half way through their set to get to the other band :mad:

Thanks. Suppose you probably cant answer, but where did you get this?

I'd print this off/download it cos if EP find out they'll have it taken down sharpish I'd say!

Vaccines and The Xx clashing :eek: Other than that it doesnt seem that bad. I would hate to have the job of making the timetable its impossible to keep everyone happy!

They are the headliners, they're always gonna clash

kellso81

Lianne las Havas and Bombay bicycle Club fully overlapping, two of the ones I wanted to see the most! Balls!

Exactly, take number of "headline" bands you are interested in, divide by number of main stages - that's how many you'll see if you're lucky. Always the way.

Quick note to EP virgins:

It will never be as good as '04, '05, '06, '07, '08, '09, '10, '11

(Just in case no-one gets around to mentioning that to you :pac:)

:D:D

as expected, saturday has loads of clashes. why couldn't they have more big names on friday, some balance.

richard hawley or junior boys?
grimes or the end of the cure?
squarepusher or orbital?

catch--22

Is it just me or are the main stages clsoing very early this year? Most last acts wrapping up around midnight?

I assume in fairness a lot of them big bands are tied into other gigs and can only play on the Sat, or Sat is the best fit for them if they have gigs elsewhere in Europe on Sunday or Friday etc?

Yeah, it's actually not that bad on a second look they have two headliners following each other each night on main stage and then the others taking a different stage each. can't please everyone

i don't actually mind that too much, a bit more time to spend watching acts in B&S area!

Anyone know if the Rave in the Woods is on again this year?

I cannot wait, I wish it was Thursday evening!

Squarepusher and Orbital clashing is just silly!

Is it just me or is The Cure's set very long at 3 hours?
