Thanks Ray, can't do the Thursday alas, Thursday night headliners next year perhaps :)

jonjhargreaves replied on Thu, 14/09/2017 - 6:40pm Permalink

Rarely see any headliners,

Rarely see any headliners, but Beck, Neil Young, Bill Callahan and Hot Chip would do nicely

2nd Headliners: Hiss Golden Messenger (please please please), Broken Bells (Shins were great this year), White Denim (now that was inspired a couple of years back), Mac DeMarco (my guilty pleasure)

Ezra Furman

William Tyler

Phil Cook

Andrew Bird

Chromatics

Richard Dawson (you can't not have the guy back after this year)

Unknown Mortal Orchestra

Ty Segall

Phosphorescent

Mountain Goats

Lambchop/Tindersticks (that slot has been a real highlight)

Mariam the Believer

Sinkane (or another William Onyeabour tribute.... or both)

Jon Hopkins and/or Caribou LIVE band

King Creosote

Sonhoy Blues, Public Service Broadcasting (just for the joy)

JAMBINAI - please - they will totally rock the tent!

Have we mentioned Pete Astor

Have we mentioned Pete Astor yet this year? How about Peter Perrett, if he's doing any live shows having released that album recently. And the Chills, and Duds. Another vote for Teenage Fanclub too.

ray_rad replied on Sun, 17/09/2017 - 1:34pm Permalink

yes, yes, yes to pete astor

he's just signed to a new label (after the sad demise of fortuna pop) - so presumably new material next year

last year's 'spilt milk' was an instant classic

artbrut_architecture replied on Tue, 19/09/2017 - 11:47am Permalink

Elephant Stone...

... would be good, seeing them support The Black Angels on Friday.

Willie J Healey - I think he would be brilliant on the Walled Garden stage!

Not sure if anyone else has requested The Weather Station, the album is pretty sweet.

I'm having a bit of a Nick Cave moment.

Watched 20,000 Days On Earth the other day, brilliant!

My mates went to see him at Manchester Arena last week and said he was on top form.

Can you please ask him to come along next year, Walter? Good boy, Woof!

smithers replied on Sat, 30/09/2017 - 7:03pm Permalink

Great fun isn't it? Love the bit in the cottage on the cliff where he and Warren are preparing dinner. You should try One More With Feeling next Elizabeth, also great but rather difficult to watch at times given the subject matter. They were terrific at Bournemouth last week. I'd love to see him at GM.

Carnie replied on Sat, 30/09/2017 - 4:11pm Permalink

I have never really got in to Nick Cave, where do you suggest to start Elizabeth?

smithers replied on Sat, 30/09/2017 - 7:11pm Permalink

The just released greatest

The just released greatest hits is a good place to start Carnie, Abbatoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus is terrific and seems to be underrated. Of his earlier stuff I love Your Funreal, My Trial and Tender Prey. Murder Ballads is also one of my favourites, some of his own songs and some traditional folk songs, Stagger Lee included.

Carnie replied on Sat, 30/09/2017 - 10:08pm Permalink

Thanks Smithers.

I'll investigate some of your suggestion.

Elizabeth McEvoy replied on Sun, 01/10/2017 - 6:15pm Permalink

I would recommend 'The

I would recommend 'The Boatman's Call' (his break up album post Polly Harvey), 'Dig Lazarus Dig', 'No More Shall We Part' and 'Push The Sky Away', Carnie.

Stand out tracks for me from these are - Into My Arms, Are You The One That I've Been Waiting For, Girl From The West Country, We Came Along This Road, Jubilee Street and Higgs Boson Blues (which is currently one of my desert island discs)

Now there's a thread I'd like to see from you lovely people... your 8 tracks you'd take to a desert island, the ones that mean the most to you.

Carnie replied on Sun, 01/10/2017 - 10:28pm Permalink

Thanks Elizabeth, much

Thanks Elizabeth, much listening to do!

Desert Island Discs would be a very worthy thread.

Just got back from seeing Micah P Hinson. Has he played Green Man before? I'd be happy to see him in the Walled Garden next year.

Mikey replied on Sun, 01/10/2017 - 2:33pm Permalink

I see that Rhiannon Giddens

I see that Rhiannon Giddens is curating the Cambridge Folk Festival next year. she would be a good headline for GM lthough obviously not an exclusive festival performance for 2018 - unless the green man could pull lots of strings, talk to the right people and get the Carolina Chocolate Drops to perform.

the limiñanas wildly good at what was, ridiculously, their first ever london show last night

proper instant crowd-pleasing stuff

So jealous,i would love to see Liminanas--they and Brian Jonestown Massacre were two of my requests for this year.Would also hope for Josefin Ohrn and the Liberation,excellent album and superb at Blue Dot.

ray_rad replied on Sat, 07/10/2017 - 1:47pm Permalink

limiñanas

yeah - i've waited years to see them

and they did not disappoint

think they played the liverpool psych fest a few years ago

and maybe one other UK show

they seemed VERY happy with the reception they got in london

so hopefully they'll be back more from now on

His new material sounded excellent last night.

Field Day are dropping some

Field Day are dropping some massive Neil Young hints, you'd guess that would be a festival exclusive. A couple of acts I'd like to see...

Seamus Fogarty - 'The Curious Hand' is a great album.

Ed Dowie - 'The Uncle Sold' seemed to slip under the radar earlier this year - top album.

New albums coming in the new year...

I see there are albums coming in 2018 for Tuneyards, Fever Ray and Ezra Furman. Would be delighted if any one of these 3 were on the lineups.

Wakestock replied on Fri, 03/11/2017 - 6:15am Permalink

My Bloody Valentine have

My Bloody Valentine have confirmed there will be a new record next year (OK, believe it when I see it) and that they will be touring again. Perfect for Green Man '18's shoegaze slot. This now seems to be a regular thing, along with the jazz slot, having hosted Slint, Slowdive and Ride past few years. MBV would be the icing on the cake.

Carnie replied on Thu, 16/11/2017 - 8:27am Permalink

Just discovered these guys

Just discovered these guys, Red River Dialect.

Sound like an ideal GM act and UK based.

Paradise of Bachelors slowly becoming one of the best Labels.

I read somewhere he was doing a European tour around Feb 18. I'd like to see him again.

Potentially the timings won't align.

GM would be a great fit though.

So.. Next year...
