Shit and Shine
Saw this lot at the Custard Factory. They really lived up to their name. Monotony with 4 drumkits, 3 basses and a bloke with loads of pedals. Their inclusion, along with Tunng are causing me to pause before buying a ticket.

Venues
The Custard Factory is literally the old "Birds" Factory. It's built in a quadrant with a big pool in the middle which is drained and a stage set up for the main acts. As you enter the quadrant, to your left is the Medicine Bar which is the second largest venue and to your right is the theatre which tends to fill quickly.
Yes you will need to make decisions but the stages are less than 100m from each other, so unlike other multi stage festivals it takes literally seconds to get from one band to another.
