I thought Darren Hayman in the Tipi on Sat night was great. Ok, the view was limited ( I agree with the other comments), but the sing-along at the end of 'The Greedy Ugly People' was ace!

Dan Sartain was superb as was Hold Steady and Brakes. Usually more of a Download and Reading chap myself, but went 'cos my best mate loved it last year, definitely up for next year. Very friendly and well run festival.

Dirty Projectors, Explosions in the Sky, Low Anthem and Brakes were all very impressive. However, Bob Log III stole the weekend for me; simply fantastic and a must see if you get the chance

Excellent as per usual. Feel amazingly lucky regarding the weather, and whilst not essential for a good time, certainly helps! Apart from probably the best trio of EOTR headliners yet, personal highlights were the discoveries of Twi the Humble Feather, the Low Anthem, Joe Gideon & AU. Efterklang no longer completely clashing with Okkervil River was also a bonus (tho i was quite up for the Horrors). Agree that the Tipi tent layout/visibilty was disappointing!

Agree, great festival, made better by being very lucky with the weather. Not going to get too annoyed with missing Okkervil River in the woods - them the breaks. On the other hand got lucky with the Horrors cancelling so managed to catch Efterklang who were fantastic. Highlights for me in no particular order were Tallest Man on Earth, Vetiver, Tiny Vipers, Okkervil River, Explosions, the Hold Steady and Efterklang. Only negative the tipi tent as mentioned below - may have seemed like a cool idea but really just a major inconvenience in terms of getting to see musicians. Looking forward to next year already.

yeah henrifernandez, the tipi tent annoyed me, we were going to go and see peter broderick in there but when we arrived it had just started and there was no way in, and due to the standing area being bent we couldnt see him and hardly hear him so we didnt bother in the end.

I happened to be playing table tennis and saw Will walk past and I nearly fainted, so I followed them (as did about 30 others) and then they all went to the piano in the woods and a congregation gathered, so they played about 6 songs. They played Westfall which was incredible, I really missed that at their main show, but seeing it acoustically in the woods was 100 times better. They were really friendly afterward too.

Wow, what else did they play? And when was that announced/how did people know? I wasn't even doing anything at 4! So annoyed at myself.

Okkervil played the woods Sunday at about 4. Didn't really think it was gonna happen...then the band came strolling down the path & plonked themselves down on the sofas/piano...all quite ridiculous really! They played a lovely version of 'A King and Queen'. Nice to hear chants of "We Want More! We Want More!" at the end, bizarre for such sedate surroundings...and Will obliged with one more track...brilliant!
