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.
yes, yes, yes to pete astor
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

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!

Great fun isn't it? Love the
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.

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

Thanks Smithers.
Thanks Smithers.
I'll investigate some of your suggestion.
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.

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.
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
the limiñanas wildly good at what was, ridiculously, their first ever london show last night
could we have them at GM next year?
proper instant crowd-pleasing stuff
VU meets krautrock meets ye-ye - with french 60s beat group girl vocals

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.
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

I suspected as much, a year i wasn't in attendance.
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.

Still think Tame Impala be a good shout for next year, this is great https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IMt7oyHP6iw
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.

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.

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.
