Had to get Friday tickets too, can't miss Bright Eyes! :D And I love Villagers, not sure what "playing across the music arenas" mean though? ??? Can't say I know the other bands too well, but I'll Spotify them right away!  :thumbsup:

They announce the stage lineups about a week ahead of time - the ones listed as "across the arenas" will be given slots then.  If your there on Friday, then Deerhunter and Caribou are must-sees.  Also, last time I saw the National at Latitude they tore the place up.
The trouble with the straight and the narrow is it's so thin, I keep sliding off to the side

For those in the UK that can get the Sky Arts TV channel, they will be covering Latitude at 9pm each night from 15-17th July. Fingers crossed they show a bit of MMJ...  :beer:

Just about to start the 5 hour drive to Latitude, and it's pissing down with rain across the UK.  Gonna be getting muddy down at the rail this evening!  :D  :beer:

It has been raining  here in Lowestoft too, but now it has stopped for the time being. Yesterday was awesome, with Bright Eyes and Conor giving a shout out to Yimmy Yames.  :thumbsup: Everyone's been really nice and friendly! Going out to get some more raincoats, then off to see Villagers!  :D Can't wait for the musical creme brulee of tonight! See you there!  :thumbsup:

Yeah, they went on about half an hour ago or so.  Is it correct that they're only getting an hour?  Its bad enough that they're only in Europe, er, England for two shows, but one hour seems meager.

8-9 PM there is 3-4 PM here (EST), so their set is over now.

And here's the setlist, lookin' a tad soggy.
